Well if you want it street-legal you don't have a choice; as oldcorollas said, the exhaust outlet has to be behind any door/window openings, so on an MA61 that means the very back of the car. If you can't fit two 3" pipes on the LHS of the car, you should be able to merge them into a single 4" pipe just before the rear crossmember. Any flow restriction will be negligible by the time it's got to the back of the car.

Does this mean that in a sedan, if the rear doors are permanently closed, (welded) that you can then run the exhaust out just behind the driver's door?
|
the engine's NA - so where the headers collect you'll have 4" each side - but once that's fed into 1 (or 2?) resonators under the car, you'd think that a 3 1/2" or 4" thru to the tail muffler would be adequate flow?
i think if you had 2 big-arsed pipes under the whole length of the car, you'd have way too much pipe resonance to make driving a fun experience? even if the amp in the back is going 110% 
chris: my understanding was that it had to be behind the rear-most window not just rear-most door - but usually it has to be out the back of the car. You might be able to exit after the wheels along the side of the car?
Cool1's getting his setup built by the engineer (who came across as a very thorough dude) so i'd guess that his setup would be the most legal.
i think dual 4" pipes would have very serious bark to them as well so the car (specially if v8_ma61 paints it lime green!) will be a driving defect magnet 
why not have two setups - track & street?
