Default Side exit exhaust?

Has anyone tried to do a custom side exit exhaust dual or single on a Z. I've searched all over and could not find anything. Thanks for the help

^^ trust the experienced. Leave the side exhaust for mustangs and hot rods. It does have a classy look though. The Z is a modern sports car, let it be the way it is

Tru I was just trying to think of something different to do besides your normal dual or single exhaust. I think if the side exit was done right it could be pretty sick. but to each his own

I think it'd be sicker if you could incorporate the exhaust outlets through your rear bumper....a la Porsche CGT or the Amuse S2000...

Hm...I think you should just stick with the regular Dual Exit/Single exit exhausts. Use the extra money you would've spent on some TP/HFC. I think it'd be a better investment IMO.

You should make each header have a tube that just dumps out behind the front tires, try and find small free slowing mufflers. Basically do it like Jun did, you just need to cut the side skirt. Good luck, post pics when your done.

You're shirking your responsibility as a big brother. When suggestions like this are made, you're supposed to beat him senseless. Or at least hold him down on the ground and rip one on his head. This is at the top of the list in the big brother rule book. Didn't you get a copy from the doctor when he was born?

Oh yeah. I'm a little brother. Call me "Pavlov's brother"

We have talked about it several times. There are a couple of potential problems:

a. Ground clearance
b. Local restrictions
