dual mufflers on a prelude is just qu33r don't do it, it's a 4 cylinder, everybody knows that ! save the duals for engine with TRUE dual exhaust, i.e. big v8s

thats exactly why i said.. i am doing it for looks.Did u not read the part when i said "i know i will lose power".I ask for opinion on which exhaust would look best not which one would give me power..

I say get urself some Apex DUNK mufflers!

NI's will/should slant outwards and TRM might look weird.

If u go TRM might as well get 5-Zigen fireball's, it's cheaper at least!

which is also just a Y-PIPE to the mufflers, if i ever own one of those it'll have single exhaust.

Actually they probably did. The S2000's exhaust is for looks. It serves no other purpose than making the car look 100 times better. And Overdose is right. The S2000's exhaust is not a true dual exhaust. It has a Y-pipe right after the cat. Just like the 2nd gen RX-7's. Actually even todays V8's aren't true dual exhaust if i'm not mistaken. The cost of having 2 cats is pricey. You have to get an aftermarket exhaust to have true dual for the american V8's now. I actually think only mustang GT's have true dual exhausts now.
