Still not the real deal, sorry. There will NOT be sedan STI ~ these are still 'tarted up' WRXs...

We will all just have to wait!!!

I'd hit it if the STI ends up actually looking like the red one above.

It's interesting that both the '08 Evo and STi went with dual exhausts. They wouldn't be functionally better than a single exhaust, right?

Nope.

There's only one turbo. Splitting the exhaust right before the mufflers does nothing for performance, and depending on the routing might actually decrease hp.

Oh, and dual mufflers/tailpipes =/= dual exhaust.

Yup, there's the WRC car. But, what will WE get for the pedestrian STI? Stay tuned...

I've seen an neon (I think it was) with dual pipes warm up one time. I noticed that the smoke came out of one pipe.

Lightbulb

Maybe one was an 'exhaust' and the other 'intake'? I saw a nuclear Neon once ~
