Considering the 11.1:1 compression on the stock motor, I see a free flowing exhaust helping the car a lot on the top end! h:

It is for style. A straight mandrel bend single pipe is more free flowing then having a y-pipe for dual exhaust. This is why v8's prefer to run true duals instead of a single cat then split to dual mufflers.

hmmmm... an excellent point. The single pipe from the header back creates a bottleneck. Good thinking man. h:
