alright! everyone knows dual exhaust kicks ass, but will it hurt the compression in my V6?

no

your compression ratio in the motor is based on your choice of pistons/cylinder head chamber size... not your exhaust.

Then why, when you have an enormous exhaust like those ricer fartcans, do you lose torque? unless you have a high performance engine that is..

it is possible to lose low end torque, but your top end rwhp numbers will more than make up for the tq loss. not on the fart cans, as they are just mufflers, but on larger, free flowing pipes. too large an exhaust is very detrimental though. there is a pipe size chart floating around for cubic inch and hp numbers of motors

yeah thats what i was saying...
ill look that chart up..

[Sa-WaitNoMustang900Turbo]

buit you shouldnt lose any low end torque on your otherwise stock engine, only gains

agressive cam + carbed n/a engine is normally the only thing that will experience noticalble low end losses with the low back preasure exhaust

and btw, fart cans dont lessen back preasure, only annoy other drivers

[CyberPrey]

awwww... come on... I love fart cans!! at least, on OTHER people's cars...

I laugh everytime I seel them... Around here, they cost WAY more than I paid for my underdrive pullys... I love the fact that buck for buck, I got way more bang

[JBake]

fart cans suck...
they're loud and dont even look good...
and they always have that nasty soad can and the bike wheel sound

yea going with dual exhaust wont hurt ya in any way sometimes it can help ya but never heard it hurt ya there are issues that can arrise from backpressure if you go to large of a exhaust but other than that i dont see u having any problems going dual...

[Onemanzu]

yea its your back pressure that is loss not compression...

if you want you could custom fab some high flow , yet constrictive exhaust system thingy

i don't know what i just siad but it sounds good
