Better flow. Think of an engine as one big air pump. The more you pump into and out of an engine the more power you will make. With true duels the sound is usally better too, I dont know about Dodge but exhaust was always Chevy's weak point. That was the first think you had to upgrade if you wanted power.

Thanks everyone, so I might get true duals only consurn would be the o2 sensors will they be ok if I just put them on one side? Or should I put a cross over in which is not 100% true duals but Iwill allow me to have both sides of the engine to monitered and then one behind a cat

I can speak for Borla mufflers. T304 stainless (while most use T409). Straight through design. Good mellow deep rumble too. I don't know the factory exhaust setup on 2nd gen but I just got a dual in/out and removed the Y-pipe and had my muffler guy run another pipe into the muffler. So it's more of a true duel (2 pipes coming out of engine all the way back).

I think my exhaust is going to just be a 2 chamber cat back with 3.5 tips just for cost reasons
