2 pipes to help his ego... looks like the one on the right is a dummy pipe, as there is no muffler for that side...

as for the staging of the letters, the guy must be special...

if it were an LS1, he'd be at a Chevy parts department, not a Porsche one... and the salesmen and staff at the Porsche would chase him off the lot with pitchforks and torches... LOL...

It could be a wastegate dump pipe, sent all the way back to look like a dual exhaust.... i've actually thought about doing that.

A classic Rennlist flame from people making fun of someone for trying something new. There is no need for a second muffler just to have a second exit. Both sound and performance can be changed by going to a split case design.

Well, generally I really like the way dual exhausts look, but for some reason, they just look weird and out of place on a 944. This isn't the first pic I've seen, in fact I saw one tht was either photoshopped or very well done, on a turbo car, where the opening in the valence for the stock exhaust was duplicated on the other side. It was very well done, but still looked funny to me.

Might look better with a european spec rear bumper and a slotted rear valance. As it is there, it does look a bit odd, but not horrible. Those staggered numbers though, that's just silly.

I think it looks great, but it would have to be functional.
I don't see how you could make it fit, though.
