Default power gains with dual exhaust? what are they

ok yeah ive searched the boards and found some stuff but most people just change the topic onto get a single get a single but i dont like the look of the single exhaust i love the dual exhaust look.

SO what are the gains...whats the best bang for my buck. Im obssesed with the sound of the HKS hi-power exhaust and Im leaning alot towards it but how do all the different exhaust stand up to each other and with the price ranges of it.....thank you for any help and no dont sugest a damn single lol

Single

I believe Invidia and Fuji will net you around 3-5 hp IIRC.

edit: A test pipe will also compound those gains and give you a few more.

Don't expect more than about 3hp gain from a dual. That's why everyone is telling you to go single. I would just worry about getting something that sounds the way you like and looks right over how much power it makes. The real benefit you should be looking at is how much weight you're saving over stock.

Have you heard the term, "slim to none"?

You could get a single and slap a vestigial muffler/tailpipe on the other side of the car.

Lol, that's funny

Anybody know anything about the Tanabe Medalion Touring exhaust or the other dual for the S2K? They claim 93 decibels max...
