I have duals. Mufflers were about 150, install was about 225 I think. I did it for looks mainly. It's loud (but deep, not ricey). If you are looking for more power, don't do it. I don't really feel like I've lost power but my track numbers are slightly slower than stock.

Putting "duals" would be having mufflers on both sides of the rear . . . are you talking about a single muffler with a dual outlet? Like the one you're looking at on ebay? I have slanted duals . . . with welded angles instead of mandrel bent. The welded angles cost more as it involves more work, but my friend hooked me up.

8) I have a custom made dual exhaust from headers to tail pipe. It sounds really sweet. The performance increase will be considerable. Time numbers to come after the break in is complete.

for performance results, you'd need true dual...and probably extensive engine work. My dual TRD setup is just for looks and to give it a nice little growl/purrr. Mufflers cost me abut 230 each and 250 for install.
