Exhaust recommendations

RE: Exhaust recommendations
You probably won't gain anything noticeable and the V6 isn't true dual exhaust, so it's up to you looks-wise... I'd probably get the single myself and save a 3 bills or whatever the markup is.

i know this may sound stupid, im fairly new with all this, but if i got new headers as well, would that help make the dual or single exhaust choice easier? i dont really know what the headers do...

RE: Exhaust recommendations
headers just combine the exhaust gases from the 6 pipes to 1 pipe, probably in a 3-2-1 fashion for each side of the motor. True dual exhausts have a pipe for each cylinder bank going to the rear of the car, usually with an X or H pipe somewhere before the mufflers to balance out exhaust pulses and sounds. On the V6 Accord, even though there are 2 mufflers, there is only 1 pipe for the exhaust, the splits into two near the rear of the car. This is not a true dual system. Headers should not make a difference, you would probably need custom fabbed headers to go true dual.

RE: Exhaust recommendations
The headers let you rip up the rpms faster, in turn making the car faster. It won't cause much gain in the peak of the dyno chart, but it will increase the area under the curve.

So i got the Megan racing exhaust put on today. WOW it is such a deep rumble. exactly what i had wanted. its so loud and then when it gets to the higher rpm's it just dies out and lets the engine overpower noise wise. all in all i love it. i still have to try it with the silencer...
