Dual exhaust on a car with only one bank of cylinders (or one header) serves no performance purpose, in fact it can hamper performance by adding turbulence. It's also useless dead weight.

Big wheels also serve no performance purpose unless you need them for big brakes... and pretty much any brake kit can fit under 16's, and most can fit under 15's. Anything larger than 16" is dead unsprung weight, bad for acceleration, braking, ride and handling.
