Let see how many people think this would fit. Is the intake on the right side for the vibe?http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...QrdZ1

Definitely won't fit. The Vibe's exhaust runs from the right hand side and passes over to the left by way of the muffler. Also, the hangers are totally wrong for the Vibe. Sorry to spoil the fun.

Yeah... and besides man, the exhaust on the srt4 doesnt sound that good from the outside... not saying i dont like them... dodge didnt do too good on the exhaust sound.I have some dual exhausts that i took off my cavalier but cant put it on untill i we get a vibe dual exhaust bumper.All in all i think the vibe would look sick with dual exhaust.

Its not an SRT4 setup, it is an original neon setup. I am not worried about hangers, that is not a problem for a good welder. I just need to fin a wy to route the pipe the other way. I just wonder if the spacing between the tips would be ok.

Hard to guess the spacing from just a photo.But really, if you're going to go through all that to modify it, why not just buy the pieces and make your own?

do you know where to find a muffler with dual outs like that? The problem with running "non-true" duals is the uneven exhale of the exhaust. Unless you can find a muffle like the neons, you aren't going to get a true equal exhale. I am open to suggestions though.

http://store.yahoo.com/hopup1/fl50seststde1.htmlJust a quick google search brought this one up.A lot of the manufacturers make dual-outlet mufflers. I wouldn't count on any of them to act like a true dual setup will though.It's unlikely you'll ever find a system that will be perfect. That's not stopping me from persuing it for my car though.

Ah but that is the predicament. Th setup would NEVER work because our mufflers sit sideways which means you would have one MUCH longer pipe. That is what is so good about the neon one. It relieves air out of both sides evenly because of built in reducers and flanges.

yeah i saw that... sorry.But thats also the problem i had with my mufflers.... when it was cold the muffler with the longest piping didnt vent as much as the one directly off the piping. Does anyone know a solution for dual mufflers and how to decently route the piping so theres a more even flow... mine used to be "Y"d so i guess thats why they didnt flow very well...Thanks for any input!

You might try the flowmaster and magnaflow websites. They make sideways muffs for z28s and trans ams which have single inlet and dual outlet on opposite ends. Then maybe your (removed) shop could custom fabricate from there to fit the Vibe.

It has been done by several Genvibers. I did a SEARCH for Dual Exhaust creator MadBill. Start with this thread --> http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=5697

There was a guy at the Ohio Genvibe Meet that had duals. He went through several exhausts before he got it right. Hey nick, What was that guy's name? He had the neptune GT with the speaker system in the back.here is his car, sorry I don't have pics of the duals.

I think those fart cans are jus tips. It sounded pretty good if I remember correctly. It might of been a little loud. that fin ended up really denting in where he installed it.
