Changing a single exit to a duel is essentially like putting a hole in your exhaust, unless yo can get the exit pipe runs to be equal, or to be equal of the pulses.

Welcome to the site, have you got an aero or standard? The ride in an aero can be crashy but depends on what you are used to?

Do you mean change the std exhaust for a twin pipe exhaust or as posted above, a dual exit ?

For more noise you may consider a test/race pipe. . .

when you say 'imfo' is that short of 'information' or is it an acronym for something - and if so what?

i thought i had a fairly good grasp on internet slang...but apparently not

Have a day off mate, seems obvious to me what he is meaning.


It was a question. I wasn't sure if it was an acronym or not either. I actually asked the question in the first place.

Corksport, Streetunit test pipe or a local exhuast fabricator. Not a great gain but may sound meatier : evil :

Alot of people actually say 'imformation'.... :thumbs:
I rolls off the tongue easier, I thinks it should become a proper word

Imformation: to require information :D

Sounds pointless to me. It's no easier to say or type imfo rather than info; and it imparts no more meaning. All you do is confuse people. The accepted meaning of 'imfo' is as an acronym that i wouldn't expect to see on this forum either...

Your too clever, my silly mate says stupid stuff all the time.

Electrical part for mounting mcb's etc is called 'din' rail... He used to call it 'dim' rail :lol:

IMFO this thread has gone way off topic and we should stick with giving the imfo asked for in the OP :thumbs:
