Correct. I hate that most cars are going dual and even quad exhausts that really don't need it. My RX-8 is a perfect example.

Keep the design light, and simple. You might even get more power out of a single, simple exhaust. :happy0180:

I personally think my rx-8 looked good with the dual exhaust. Given it isnt needed but I thought it looked great

I am more interested in the front mount intercooler! which should hopefully be connected to the turbo setup!

Just took a picture from the Video linked here

It shows info about the BRZ STI.
So now it's for sure: Ain't boosted, as Subaru has said.

If the STI doesn't do it for you then the Prova Black Edition BRZ will be the better choice. This car has a center exit exhaust system!
The Prova BRZ just got a lot more interesting...
