Hey guys, I have seen the duel exhaust outlets on both sides of the rear bumper on the BA's and was wondering if anyone out there has done this to an AU and have any idea of cost. I think they look and sound really good. Any thoughts welcome.

Im not certain but im pretty sure the fuel tank is in the way on an AU Falcon, i agree it does look good on BA's but i don't think it would be worth the work on a AU.

Yeah FPV is right, the fuel tank in the AU wont allow for a duel exhaust system..
Can get a single 3in and put a matching fake tip on the other side so it looks twin? |

Thanks guys, I've heard it has been done but with a lot of hard work and money. If I was to do it, it would have to be properly. Just love the way BA's look with duel sets of pipes, sets the rear end off nicely.

Would be much easier on a ute though ... but not the sedan though.

Looks great but i think it is a bit of a ricer mod having an exhaust out each side if only one side is connected.

I believe the gas tank for the dedicated gas is where the spare wheel well is - under the car. Boot floor pan is different in the gas/pertrol.
