How do you know James? I have not post the pic of it, but yes it will have a Y exhaust for the test and preliminary ajustments then will switch to Flowmaster muffler made for the Camaro which has being installed by a lot of NSX owners and claimed that the sound is really great (will see that) so it will have independent exhaust pipes then to the muffler...

Will post a pic of the Y exhaust tomorrow.
