They need to join if you want torque... scavenges from the other bank better and will stop drone at highway speed. Look at a late model V8 commodore exhaust, they have a 'X kiss' pipe just past the gearbox which helps with scavenging and then has the full twin system etc.

use BIG straight-through oval mufflers about 2.5" in/ out

Check teh sale section, there's a set of Phat Quad Tip mufflers somewhere in there

Or a pair of STi genome mufflers

I will be doing this when . Can afford ( not too soon) will get a centre muffler to replace the stock one that contains a cross section in it. Hopefully it will sound different but nice. I have seen one on YouTube (a Blitzer one) that sounded great

Yeah, set of Hooker mufflers at the back and a set of hotdogs after the kiss pipe...

I have one muffler on a cranky cammed Nissan V6 in my Pulsar with 6>1 headers, it is quiet once tuned right ;)

Yeah, an N14 SSS with VQ35DE from a Nissan Altima/Maxima with a 6 speed Torsen LSD FWD gearbox.
