    My 2006 T2000 has a single stack, and I'm considering adding one to the other side.

    Can anyone tell me if there is any performance/fuel economy to be gained from this, or is it just for looks?

    Also, does anyone have any idea how difficult it would be to do this to a T2000 that was a single stack from the factory?

    I'm looking for for tangible performance/economy gains here, not so much for looks.

    I dont think you would gain performance of milage over a single exhaust stack with a good free flowing muffler. IMO it does look better.

    If Your looking for performance, ditch the stack all together. Run a turn down like some car haulers do. Weights less. Shorter = increased flow.
