dual exhaust on a 97 gt celica?, good or bad Options

[ROMANO]

Hey guys, Hope you all dont get to heated for this quetion, but I had a dual exhuast with no name muffler and tip installed into my 97 gt celica conv. My only question is, what is it actually doing for my car, is it gonna pose as a future problem. For my intentions were only to give my car more of a louder bark with out the bite if you know what I mean.Ill apply pictures to show you what I have done and how it looks. Oh another thing my car is an automatic if that helps you figure out what problems might occur in the future p.s it sounds really good to with a deep resonating hum to it.

ok as i've said before NOISE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH HOW MANY MUFFLERS YOU HAS

thats only a FRACTION of the equation people stop being so NARROW
its an exhaust SYSTEM not a exhaust muffler....

a system is multiple pieces that work in conjunction with eachother
if your goin to tell me that 1 muffler is ALWAYS quieter then 2 then shame on you, you need to go get educated cause in that statement there isn't any real defenition

noise is based on MANY variables
1) pipe diameter
2) catalytic converters
3) resonators
4) mufflers

ok now that you know how sound is controlled in a car
lets work things out

dual exhaust simply doesn't make it louder
normally they are JUST THE SAME.....
lets take for instance defgeph he has a single muffler on resonated and unsilenced
my dual tipped exhaust had no resonator but 2 silencers one for each muffler.....he's louder...not by much but he is....he also has a 3sgte i have a 7afe.....motor matters

its all in the design...if both single and duals are resonated and both are cat'd then you can achieve the same level of noise reduction.....the degree of loudness of any exhuast system IS NOT COMPARABLE AND YOU CAN NOT MAKE A CONCRETE FACTUAL STATEMENT BASED ON HOW MANY MUFFLERS YOU HAVE IT IS BUILT IN A SYSTEM AND VARIES ON SYSTEM DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION
