Single single exhaust would look bad a$$.
Unfortunately I've seen no rear bumper which is built for single exhaust. You may want to fibre glass the other side of the bumper to make it flash with the diffuser.

The Amuse looks pretty good with a single. Ive only seen it once though. I wasn't crazy about mine at first but its really growing on me the more I see it.

Yeah this is the main problem you're going to run into. I don't know if I've ever seen a 370 with a single exhaust setup.

Z1 did a single exit exhaust on a 370, I'm not 100% but I believe it was on a nismo kit as well. Did not look right at all imo.

You'll have to have the center exhaust cutouts (both) removed, and replaced with a functional diffuser to block the gap and have a single cut in it. That is what I think will look best.

However, no one can deny how good a single sounds on our car...

Single exhaust sounds way too cool on our cars. I couldn't be happier.

Did you do the Amuse kit idea I told you about?

One of a kind!

I might be. There is ALOT of back pressure with this setup. I either need to do a dual y pipe or a 4" oval exhaust. We have ideas to make both work well..just need to make decisions. Might to an upgraded t4 housing+4"oval+custom made manifolds. Its a lot of work...wont be happening until winter.

Then just go run around crazy in it now, and break in the motor side of it. Enjoy it, then when you bed her for Winter, you can work on the piping.


Looking forward to seeing it in person.

You have my word. All of the crazy running around will be had.

I really want to make to one of the meets so everyone can see it at once. Hearing it is the better part though.

Its a Borg Warner s258 that I had machined out to an s259 with an upgraded billet wheel. Good for 650hp. Its a little undersized but it will make power to redline and it spools instantly. I was at 3k RPMs and bumped the throttle to like 30% and saw 5lbs in the blink of an eye.
