- Thu Dec 04, 2008 11:14 pm #82062 All you'd be doing is adding weight and probably loosing power by going to a dual setup.

Anyway to have a "true" dual exhaust you'd need two headers, and our motors dont come that way.

- Fri Dec 05, 2008 1:16 am #82081 Nope, the pistons are 16v relief, go for it! You might have clearance issues with a dual exhaust since there isn't a nice tunnel carved in the body for one. If you really want dual exhaust buy a v6 accord

What he said. ^^

Honda 4 cylinder motors have absolutely no need for a dual exhaust setup. If you are talking Ridgelines or V6 accords, that is a different story.
If you are going to boost and make bigger numbers, just get a wider diameter single pipe exhaust.

- Thu Jan 08, 2009 1:26 am #87489 I can confirm that you will lose power on a 4 cylinder engine with a dual true exhaust.

Ask yourself why are there such things as H pipes for V and boxer style engines?

Whenever I see something like that on a 4cyl there's only exhaust coming from one.
