Single siding the stock exhaust.

So I had a thought. My biggest complaint with the EB is the use of two mufflers for a single exit exhaust. So I a thinking of cutting one side off just behind the resonator and capping it. At the least it would pick up a bit of sound and drop some weight. Thoughts?

Only issue I see is a single 2.25" pipe is pretty restrictive. You may lose power. I'm going to use a single 3" exhaust on mine.

Yeah the single side from ultimate racing is my eventual destination . But it also does make sense that the bottle up might slow down the pulses.

There's only one bank of cylinders, so to an extent It's an aesthetic thing. I find single exit exhausts on cars that came with duals looks strange.

Yeah, aesthetically its not great, but its already not aurally great so function over form for me. ;)

For this car if you go single exit I'd recommend a 2.5 inch turbo back or bigger.

With how restrictive the stock mufflers are and the small piping I'd not do it. I'm surprised there are not more single 3" exhausts out there actually.

Hopefully it will become more popular otherwise I don't think anyone will ever come out with a single exit rear valance.

yeah that is my concern as well. I have a base model with the one piece rear bumper I assume I'll never have an option unless I replace the entire rear cover with the Premium bumper. Good news is my father is a retired design engineer and spoke to him today about making a cover for the driver side on his 3D printer. We'll see how it pans out.
