May be a stupid question but, I am looking at getting a body kit, I was also looking to get something similar to a dual N1.. I was wondering what do you do if you have a back piece and you have duals? or is that exhaust out of the picture? thanks

Most rear valences have a space cut out for an exhaust. However, a lot of times the exhaust is too big for the provided space, so you have to cut the bumper yourself to make the space bigger to allow the exhaust to fit. It's a pretty simple solution. Just dont do or have a ghetto hack job done on the fiberglass and you'll be fine.

There is a pic of the N1 dual. As you can see, both tips come out the same side of the car. If the hole that you have isn't big enough...make it bigger!! It's not a dual exhaust like the ones you see on domestics etc. but still. And to be honest...a dual exhaust system like the ones seen on corvette's, trans ams etc...wouldn't do our cars much good. Just add weight I suspose and look weird.

Just add weight and look weird? That would be the least your problems, I don't get why all these frickin Civics and stupid Import owners put a true dual exhaust system on their cars. Mustangs and domestics don't put dual exhaust systems on to look cool, it's because they are not 4-bangers! If you did that to ur 240, you would lose a lot of horsepower.

nah it shame to see it in piecies if you are learning to drift. its gonig to break and your just wasting money

if your a good drift and it goes to pecies its sad but not as sad if your learning.

i would never suggest a body kit for a new drifter. you'll destroy it fast if you push your car

you wont hurt it if you dont push you car=not learning as much as you could
