Default Single or dual exhaust

Question. Sorry if this was asked before but I was wondering what would y'all prefer. Single or dual exhaust. Im planning to purchase the greddy TI-C exhaust. But I need some advice on a single or dual. Thanks guys.

why would you get an exhaust based on what WE prefer. Everyone has their own tastes, which is why there are sooo many exhaust system, both dual and single. Ive had the hks dual, and two singles. And i prefer the single. The greddy is a nice sounding exhaust, but im sure your going to have more than one exhaust, its not a permanent decision, so just get it.

Matters little. A long as you get the exhaust from the motor to the rear of the vehicle you will be OK. I believe that the true dual has a distinctive "rumble" not found in the OEM or single exhaust. Just a personnel observation.

I'm not. I just need opinions on it. I'm just trying to see what is the best. It's either you lose hp cause of a single or you gain. That's why I am asking what would you guys prefer. Everyone has there own preferce. I just want to know what you guys think before I purchase an exhaust system for my Z.

best bet is listen to them for yourself, and decide what is best for you....asking other people their opinions on something as broad as an exhaust is really going to get you nowhere IMHO

Own a single, never going back. Dual's, true or not, should not be on any car with less than 8 cylinders That's why the s2k is the dumbest car ever...dual on a 4 bangr lol.

but i have it with exhaust parts all the way to the engine, it's the loudest thing (unsilenced), and it backfires, turns heads, sounds totally jizzzworthy, and the burnt tip on the Greddy just ads to everything I love about Japanese imports...Do it!!!!

Since you're in Hawaii, check out exhaust systems of hawaii in waipahu, they can custom make you sumthing if you have a specific preference. Like for instance, I did a true dual 2.5", magnaflow xpipe, and apexi n1's for about 1 g to include labor. I know they carry greddy cans on hand to.
