No, not necessarily. you need to look at the piping sizes. You can even use a single exhaust if you want. I think something dual with 2.5" piping would suffice. If you want to go single, 3" piping would be better. I think the turboxs would be ok.

Yeah, it also depends on how much power you're looking at too.

Holy ****ing **** last night sucked. I have never in my life heard so much thunder and seen so much lightning in my life nevertheless the amount of rain either. The sky was constantly lit up for hours. I am in Laplace. Was it bad for everyone in NO, BR, or Houma?

Man it POURED out here. I left the Z in the driveway when I got the warning about possible hail. My roommate had his car in the middle of the garage but moved it, then I pulled mine in while it was pouring

But I did sleep like a baby

Not me and I normally sleep through these kinds of things. The thunder and lightning did not stop for 3-4 hours. Didn't help either having an 8 week old puppy scared out of her mind.

Yeah may not have been as bad in the NO area. Being 20 miles away may have made a big difference between what we got and what you all got.

I was that way when I was in school. Couldn't get one because I knew I wouldn't have time for it.

Werd. I'll wait til I'm out of school to get a pet. I'd feel bad for not having the time for it.

I slept great last night. I didn't even know we had a storm come through until I looked out the window this morning and seen that the ground was wet.
