I've been thinking about running a dual exhaust on my 98 Sport and putting two dual tipped DTMs mufflers at the end of the line. I'm shooting for the Alfa 155 touring car look (four tips slanted upwards).

I'm not sure how good this will look on our cars, so I'm collecting opinions. Remember, I'm going for a very agressive look and max hp. Any and all comments welcome!

*Powdercoated intake manifold (more powdercoating coming soon)
*Blue headlights, foggies, and signals (no reflectors)
*CEG stickers & removed door moldings

1994 Ford Aspire 4-door, looks like a big egg
*64 hp 4-cyl
*5 speed
*"13 steel rims with go-cart tires
*74 mph top speed
*I'm going to auto-x the thing (but not compete)

Well I'll post pics soon of my SVT exhaust with custom DTM tips. It doesn't have 4, just 2 but it may give you an idea.

I'll be changing mine pretty soon to two dual tip SS DTMs... I have already played with photochop to see how it looks... laugh

Oh yeah, thats perfect Hector! Two of those should do the job. Thanks man!

Now another question: should I cut the bumper and raise the mufflers?

I've been thinking the same thing. As long as they did a clean job cutting "notches" into the bumber I'd say go for it.
