[Shotimes] true dual exhaust

Well, the Borla system got 32 HP, so the duals were worth at least another
3!!!!!  ;-)

Frankly, all of the HP claims before maybe '95-'96, when the Dynojet became
common and affordable, are about all BS and speculation.

Time for the bombshell question now:

How could TedB get a 35HP gain from his dual exhaust?

I can understand 10HP from the high-flow Y-pipe, and maybe another 5HP from
[obviating] the somewhat restrictive 2 1/4" stock pipe.

But where did the rest come from?

According to his dyno measurements he also noticed a very significant gain
in the mid-range RPM.  

And also very interestingly, he also reported that a true dual cat-back
system from a company (Racing Technologies or something...no longer in
existince though) yielded a 25HP gain measured on several SHO cars.
