Question about exhaust route

[TheNatster513]

I was driving behind a corvette the other day and noticed it had a sweet cutout in the middle of the rear bumper and then the exhaust pipes came out there. has anyone seen this on a sn95??

saleen did this on some of the new-edges. they struggled getting it on the road because the exhaust heats up the fuel, raising emmissions and reducing performance. but they succeeded.

heres all i could find:

gt with roush valence and custom cut out i believe:

saleen:

saleen again:

and an sn95 that screams ricer:

I've always liked it on the Saleens, other than that though, ehhhhh.

You know all 97+ Vettes are like that right? At any rate 69clark has/had center exhaust with an aftermarket rear bumper

 

[evilcw311]

abcexclusive.com makes the bumper that onyx posted above. 69clark used it, its their gtr bumper. they also sell a rear tail pipe kit that gives you that look without actually having to have a irs.

would look pretty cool just have to make sure the pipe clears the fuel tank.. Our 04 saleen focus has that type of exhaust =]

Dang I like that.

Damn center exhaust is so hot. It was one of my favorite things about the New Edge Saleens.

 

[Mustang Mark]

im not a fan.

 

[MustangChris]

i could take it or leave it. def. looks better on vettes than stangs.

 

[TheNatster513]

I think instead Of a circular tip, it would look best with a more angle cut to them. So it flows better with the curve of the bumper.

Cool as it is, I'm not sure how two 90-degree bends are helping from a performance standpoint. I can respect the work that would go into it, though
