Am I the only one who likes the larger single outlets of the base better than the smaller looking dual/duals on the GT?

I like the single pipe as well.

But i will live with it. I dont think there is an option.. to exchange them.

I like dual/dual. The first time I saw them, I smiled because they reminded me of E55/63 AMGs.

yea there is, create your own!

My Bonne GXP had the quad tips too. Too busy, so when I put magnaflow's on it, I went with two larger double walled tips, one for each side.

i think it looks retarded with just one big pipe coming out both sides. My TA had dual/dual and looked so much better then people with single pipe on both sides

Yea, this looks FAR better than the itty bitty 4 small round tips (2 on each side);

my gmpp kit has the 2 large singles. I think I like 4, but I can go either way.

The dual/duals always remind me of the dual tips the hot hatch & minitruck crowd used to run before they invented the even goofier 3-4” wide grapefruit launchers. I even saw a couple triples and maybe a quad before fad ended. Unfortunately, on the G8 GT’s the panel cutouts for the exhaust are too wide to look right with a single pipe and I don’t care nearly enough to change it.

If I go with the G8 Sedan I might switch the tips out for the ones I have on my Grand Prix.

the BIG single either side of this Tomcat system would look pretty good

I am with you, the quads are just for looks, no additional purpose. My Z06 has Corsas on it with 2 4 inch tips, instead of those quads that come from one bigger pipe on each side and Y into quads at the end just behind the tips. Hopefully Corsa's system will offer dual tips as an option and I can change to that. The Brownings know I like mine with 2 tips!

I'm running twin 3" exhaust with single 3.5" pipes out the back of the magnaflow mufflers...

And here is the video of my exhaust with the cam recently installed..

The tips that I'll be using on the G8 axleback system i'm developing will be very similar to these.
