twin exhaust for 260z 2+2 coupe

[davethesparky]

Hi all,i recently purchased a 1975 260 z 2+2 coupe which has had a 280 z motor fitted and i am toying with the idea of fitting a twin exhaust system.I was just wanting a bit of feedback from anyone who has done this or anybodys opinion about the idea.Cheers Dave....

Are you talking dual exhausts (twin system aka v8 style) or to a double pipes ( two pipes running down the same side), Ive seen quite a few yanks do that with the I6?

[davethesparky]

one pipe either side like da v8`s

I spent a lot of time thinking about this as a love the look a the back.

 

However there is a few stumbling blocks. First there isnt room at the back with the fuel tank to run another muffler. So that means either chopping out the spare wheel well and running a fuel cell to make room or fitting some other small tank. Then the other problem is that a I6 will not sound too good through dual exhausts.

 

I decided against it in the end. Too much time money and effort for an average sounding exhaust system that looks fantastic

Thank you to all that replied about dual exhausts for my 75 260z,sounds like a whole lotta trouble and money.single 2.25 inch may be the way to go.

They are just copying the JDM style. "Twice Pipes" were an option on the Z in Japan.
