Dual exhaust bumper...

Im in the process of planning out my dual exhaust. But I dont want to cut my rear valence. How would it look if I got the rksport rear valence eith the rest of the car? Would that no flow with the rest or what? Give me some feedback on this, I cant figure out what to do here..

Just cut your stock bumper man. It's not hard. I paid somebody to do it because I know I would screw it up. It cost me $64.20 to have them cut it out. Any body shop should be able to help you out.

That's going to be cheaper than buying the RK Rear Valance.

i would never pay that much for that set-up. I went to summit and got 2 force automation (sp) mufflers, like $30 and sound like flow masters.

Im not going 3", thats just too much, Im doing the 2.5" and eventually might make it into a dual exhaust...maybe.

DO you have 2.5" on both your outlets or did you shrink it up to like 2" both sides?

Both sides is 2.5". get the exhaust from that site and make a trip to summit... they have everything you need. Now dont forget, unless u buy the new magna flow exhaust from that site, you need mufflers. Thats why i likes that cuz i can use whatever i want. Ill get u the link to the mufflers i used.

Nah sorry, never had a reason to lol. My dads a v8 dude, and he said they sound just like flowmasters. This is the last email i got from the company about our dual outlet exhaust ...

Its possible we might have something available in the future. We are considering the dual as the amount of interest does seem to be increasing. I don’t not have a time frame in mind yet though.

We just added a single exhaust version to the website now. Depending on sales and interest will help determine if the dual gets built.

FYI: we are also considering an axel back version as well.

when u coast it has that same srt4 sound, but not as loud. I wont lie, i dont care about the way it sounds if your just reving it up, but when your WOT and get some air going threw it sounds great. Its not a real deep tone, but not ricey... i donno youll have to listen to it lol. Summit has lot of mufflers, alot of people are going with the magnaflows for are cars if your looking for that deep tone.
