Hello it's me again, now have to replace the muffler and B pipe, Meineke is suggestingI replace my 96 EXL 4 cylnder with a one exhaust instead of the dual, according to them the other pipe out the back is for looks.
I was wondering if this would be safe, or do I need to get the dual exhaust muffler that is standard on my EXL?

The price from the dealer was $650.00 If I go with the one exhaust its $220.00 including the B pipe plus tax.

Please advise me asap as I am leaving on Friday for the weekend in Tampa.

Go with the single, the dual is just for looks with a 4 cylinder.

 

Looks better with the two pipes but as Tex says, go with the single..

Dual will increase backpressure a little, just go single.

 

Thanks guys very much for your input.

 

I believe it would decrease backpressure instead of increase it.

 

As of last Friday got a new B pipe and muffler done at Mieneke in Tampa on North Dale Mabry including the crome extension for $265.00 including ta., Its not dual, but the guy took his time to center it in the middle, look great, sounds even better quite again at last.

 

and you lost a few lbs. by going single

 

Nope, would add another passage, that would create more turbulence at the split, rather than a smooth straight exit. Oh and yeah, weight too. The other muffler is counterproductive unless your just going show.

 

then why does everyone reccomend not getting a dual exhaust for a 4 banger
