I'm running into fitment issues, and I'm curious about something. Would I be able to run 4" to a cutout then split into dual 2" after then run into mufflers so I can run a quiet setup when I need. Most of the time and for performance I'll be rocking an open cutout. But I want the option, however I'm curious how small is TOO small.
This is all going to be on a 402ci with a s85 turbo.

I'm going to run 4" all the way back, and have a cutout, but I want to split it in two, possible 2"? after the cutout so when its shut it runs through the two pipes/mufflers and out the back. Reason for the dual is the tip location. It's mainly a design and asthetics, but I want the duals to be functional. But I don't want an issue if I run dual 2"
But if I think about it I don't see why not right? Since single 4" is basically the same as 2 2", however I wanted to make sure it wasn't TOO small. I may even be able to split into dual 2.25"

I would just run 4in all the way to the muffler, then just branch off to two seperate pipes after the muffler. I did the exact same thing (but with 3") I wanted dual tips just for looks.... But the extra bends and the Y-pipe defienately changed the tone of the exhaust, it took out the deep blah sound, now it is just really defined...

I wouldn't go any smaller than 3" on the duals personally. I have 4" all the way back from the dp, and 3" back for the muffler for the wastegate and I have minimal room between my 4" and driveshaft. You may be able to fit 2 3" mufflers under there, but I don't know if it would be worth your trouble.
