You wouldn't necessarily lose power, but you definitely wouldn't make much. Also, your car will sound very low and bassy, and it will probably backfire a lot. I think its a stupid idea... I have dual exhaust on my s2k, but only because my bumper has two exhaust cut-outs. Were it not for that I would have gone single long ago. Would you just cut out the bumper on the other side to make way for the other muffler?

Well you won't lose power, but as it was asked what are you going to do to modify the bumper? Please please please don't just try and have the second muffler come out under the bumper.

most of the SRT-4's got dual exhaust...

s2000 is 4cylinder and it has a dual exhaust... do people laugh at s2000 for having a dual exhaust?

If you're just doing it for looks, why not just weld another piece to the existing stock exhaust and then run it to the other side? BTW, I think you'd lose power due to lack of backpressure if you went full dual.

I know of one person who built one for his integra. Now it sounds like a Subaru wagon.

last time i checked no 4-cylinder has true dual. The s2000 dual is just a y-pipe.... its not true dual.

HaHa... Yes. Unless each pipe was an inch in diameter.
