3" singles make more power than true dual for NA 99.999999999% of the time.

 

I feel like a complete tard.. i now understand you license plate.

 

I still don't understand it...

 

Quoting because new page:



LOL. Even Z owners don't get it i guess

think.. think real hard.

 

I disagree. Duals provide better air flow for NA. Hell, straight piping it back from the headers would provide better airflow than a 3" single. The less bends the better. There was a thread that tested the Motordyne Shockwave TDX2 with ART pipes with an HR and a tune and it made 317whp. Aren't you making like 296?

 

I cant believe it took me that long. haha

 

Nope. Bobby here @ CIN tunes these cars for a living, and is one of the most knowledgeable guys for this platform on the east coast. He has seen just about every exhaust setup possible for these cars. They tuned a Motordyne TDX/Art Pipe setup on a nismo Z a few weeks ago and it did make 3whp more than me (295whp). But he has said many times, the 3" singles consistenly make more power on these cars NA. Plus they are lighter than most, if not.. all dual exhausts out there.

 

I guess it really just comes down to the dyno and the tuner and who you trust with information. But based off of all the dynos and information on this site I still believe a true dual will make more power to the wheels than a single.

 

I believe BMurray's correct. I have never seen anything stating that a True Dual "should" make more power than a single, only the other way around...

 

Single > True Dual... For NA. Sound clip uploading

 

A TD will NOT make more power. Singles will always make morr power on NA. Look at 1300hp supras....... single exhaust. The equation for the best flow is doesnt exist. Bobby wants singles on every na car. He has seen the most power with them when against apples 2 apples. We have a bet against my MD dual and single. Im not changing mine unless I make 10hp more(wont happen) my exhaust sound is ****. Also SG ran a custom 3.5" single.

 

 

Sounds great man...

 

Wow sounds amazing. They're going to run out of singles for you to try soon... Lol

 

So jealous

 

love the AP.

 

Lol thanks guys!

Lol. All I have left to try is AAM, and Greddy! Jk. I dont see myself getting rid of this one

 

sounds really good man

 

what about the tomei? thats the only one i would even consider if i replace my AP.

 

thanks!

oh yeah forgot about that one.. it is very nice. but doubt i'll be paying more for what is essentially the same thing lol.
