maybe a pipe dream

is a possible to custom fab headers to be two 2-1 sets and be a true dual exhaust is this possible and has anyone done this and would it be worth the effort? also I am wanting to turbo would this be counter productive as i know the exhaust dose needs to be modified when i put the turbo on

anything is possible. not worth it, but possible. also, just stay with a single exhaust. dual exhaust on a cobalt is pointless imo

Not worth the money your going to spend. Everythings possible.....its just how much money do you want to spend on something that will provide minimul or possibly no gains....

I'd personally go all motor if I were you. Even if you custom fab'd the headers I still wouldn't consider it to be a true dual exhaust to me. You would lose more power than gain

header mod would be a complete waste if you plan to turbo it
