Hey guys just wondering if anyone has put twin pipes on their vl v8? If so is it worth doing? Just looking at twin 2.25 on a mild 308 .. Any advice?

can run twin pipes that size, there not that big. exhaust shop can sort that no problem.

Surge tank? Really?? Hmm getting pretty tech just for new zorst.. Can't they just bypass around it somehow? Is there much advantage in a dual zorst? Besides a better note? I already have redback headers into single 2.5..

yea sweet, im thinking i might have to do something similar. was looking into a droptank in the near future anyways. might be the way to go, next problem would be getting a drop tank for the vl... or one made up.

23-08-10, 15:18 GMT+10#13 don't bother. For a mild engine a single system is more than enough. A lot of twin systems without decent comp etc just end up sounding like thong clappers.
