Default Dual or not to dual?

ok i know this has always been a debate but here is where i stand now. i had a single exhaust t1r and LOVED the performance. i know have a RSR exhaust and like it as well to but i am about to go a little go AND show. So the two exhausts i am looking at are the J's 70RR or the J's 70RS. both i wouldnt mind having but my MAIN focus is not looks but performance. i was hoping people that have either one could chime in and give gains or expectations of what they got out of either. Thanks ahead of time

basically single = less weight, usually more power(if compared to same diameter piping duals), and usually louder.

dual = lighter then stock(heavier then single), loud(sometimes just as loud), and good gains(depending on the system may be similar to the single version)

as far as the looks of both, it's personal preference.

I had dual Amuse, now I have single Amuse.

Its all personal choice. You won't know what you like better until you try it. I like my single

no problem. J's duals are the best looking duals in my opinion. However if you go with the single then on your ap1 it will look good. You can finish it off with the single exhaust cap, and get rid of the opening on the other end.
