Not sure if this question been asked before, but I couldn't find a thread that talks about it. (if someone can link me to it, i appreciate)
I've read and did some research on it, but please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
HR engine layout:
Engine --> Header --> Cat --> Catback exhaust.

Also "true dual cat-back exhaust" means everything from the cat and down? including y-pipe?

Thanks.

 

True dual exhaust doesn't incorporate a Y-pipe. Some may use an X-pipe but other then that they are exactly what they say "true dual" 3 cylinders per pipe! This is what I am using. Great high RPM gains. With my HKS system, I have a surprisingly deep sound with no drone!.. I luv it...

invidia gemini is an affordable option.

 

so true duel exhaust is not always come with y-pipe, it could comes with x-pipe or h-pipe, it's really depends on the brand or the company that made them?
also, let's just say, you can always mix and match the y-pipe of this brand with a diff exhaust brand right?

love the way your car sounds, i might end up getting the hks then

 

HKS basically has an H-pipe but there is no exhaust cross over like with X-pipe true dual exhaust systems.

I have Crawford HFC's and Stillen headers. Which also help make up some of the sound.

 

is it a true dual exhaust? hopefully i can find a used one in here

 

Be sure to listen to different systems. Some sound like A$$!... You get what you pay for.

 

yes it is a true dual.

the vendor topspeed is selling it for under 800 shipped on here. I have no complaints with mine whatsoever. quality is great and fitment was perfect, especially for the price. no drone or rasp at all as the x pipe in the mid section helps drastically.

 

I think you got it. Kind of. This true dual exhaust never mixes exhaust from cylinders 1-3-5 with 2-4-6. There is no Y-pipe to combine the two sides.

 

in the end, x,y,h or no pipes crossing at all, it is really depends on the company that made them. but true dual cat back exhaust is anything from the cat and down. if im wrong plz correct me

 

ARK has a true dual out. Check them out if you're looking at true duals and compare. Depends on what you think sounds good.

 

No. I will show this again with photo. Exhaust gas from cylinders 1-3-5 and 2-4-6 are combined here.

 

oh gotcha
