Is it possible to get true duals on a eclipse gt? - Club4G Forum : Mitsubishi Eclipse 4G Forums - 2006-2012 Eclipse Authority

SiLvEr06GT · December 10th, 2010, 10:25 PM

I have a friend telling me that i should have got true duals instead of just duals on my gt but my boyfriend and the guy that put my duals on said you cant put true duals on my car. So is it possible to put true duals on my gt?

Freeker · December 10th, 2010, 10:32 PM

yes... search

By true duals you mean one off each bank of the motorr right? Or from the Y pipe split it and have duals run only the front axel back

Freeker · December 10th, 2010, 10:54 PM

well if it is true duals that would be header back... if he means a split pipe then he needs to SEARCH!

Chaos · December 10th, 2010, 11:00 PM

Agreed search is needed regardless but a lot of people have different qualifications on true duals. Especially on a horizontally opposed V-configuration motor. IMO true duals on this car is useless go with a setup similar to mine and you'll be fine.

if i do go with a dual set up for my gs what mufflers should i get? i wanna sound beast

SiLvEr06GT · December 25th, 2010, 04:05 PM

He said i could have my exhaust coming from each exhaust manifold

360jeepboy · December 25th, 2010, 05:06 PM

I've only really seen one eclipse with "true" duals. He said it kind of sounded like a boat at idle... Let me see if I can find that old thread, it was a long time ago.

On another note. I don't see any power gains from a true dual on this car, but you can't go wrong with a y-pipe, looks good, sound great!

360jeepboy · December 25th, 2010, 05:17 PM

I couldn't find it. I can't remember what the title was, but I'm thinking it didn't have anything to do with exhaust in it.

Chaos · December 25th, 2010, 05:30 PM

I have "fake" duals but it sounds awesome. Has a slight audible lope at idle. Really an impressive sound . My guy said that on this car the weight and cost of true duels would far out weight any gains

ryanastyG4 · December 25th, 2010, 05:33 PM

Theres different meanings of a true dual (automotive related)? Thought it was pretty much set in stone. Like CAI, Headers, lowering springs.

Chaos · December 25th, 2010, 06:06 PM

No true duals by definition is from the headers back, two separate pipes. My "fake" setup is a single exhaust pipe from the Y pipe to just before the rear axel where it splits into a "dual exit exhaust". Least that's always been my understanding

ryanastyG4 · December 25th, 2010, 07:16 PM

that is correct, i was clarifying because you said other peoppe have qualifications of it. when theres either true dual or just a dual exhaust (split by y pipe)
its either true or not.

anyways
no purpose of a true dual. if you have the extra dough to toss away then donate it instead of wasting it

SiLvEr06GT · December 26th, 2010, 01:19 AM

true duals on a car that doesn't even make 300hp, v6, is FWD, and has no power adders will not benefit from true duals...

and he can take a cock up his ass

i know who youre talking about... he had a black GT... he took pics of his car by the bay or something like that...

360jeepboy · December 26th, 2010, 05:59 PM

Yea, he actually put up under car pics so we could see true dual set up.

Freeker · December 26th, 2010, 06:10 PM

randman · December 26th, 2010, 07:32 PM
