Hello,
Just curious considering the substantial performance incentive to do so.
Please share if so!

I have always wondered what a spider would look like with side pipes.

This is the only picture I've ever seen of a Spider with side pipes.

Re: Anybody running with side pipe exhaust?
Is that 'pipes' or 'pipe'? How did they do the driver's side?

Re: Anybody running with side pipe exhaust?
I had mine running out there for a while, it was obnoxious as hell. ended up putting it out the back with stock configuration minus the cat / upgrade the muffler. Short side exhaust is only cool on jeeps or something that you have no interest in having a conversation with a passenger. Annoyingly in your face loud.

Re: Anybody running with side pipe exhaust?
I have now seen that yellow car reposted several times on this forum and still I cannot get use to it.
Sure each to their own but I do think that the time that went into that would have been better spent elsewhere??
I just don't get it?? my 2c worth, sorry to offend anyone, I'm sure some may think mine looks a bit odd with the indicator relocation...
Back to the original question, the noise will drive you nuts. I may imagine it would be okay on a race car but on a road car you do want an exhaust that isn't too loud, ask me how I know .....
