Your engine must waste some of its power, to push the exhaust gases out of the combustion chamber. The more restrictive the exhaust system, the more power is wasted doing this chore. Dual exhausts will help over come some of this power loss by being less restrictive. To resolve this problem completely, install a set of headers first, then drive it down to the muffler shop and let the pro's work their magic.
Headers, by design, scavange the exhaust gases from the combustion chamber, leaving all the power that the engine produces available to go to ground.
After doing this, the first thing you will notice is that you don't have to push on the gas pedal very hard, to get the car going. The power that used to be wasted, pushing out exhaust gases, is now going to the ground. Improved gas mileage comes along with it. So the moral is: Do it once, and do it right
