Hey all you people with GT-R's (or you Sam)! I've noticed some things about the airflow out of the tailpipes and wanted to know if you're experiencing something similar. First thing I noticed is lately when I clean my car (and I've been driving it real hard lately ) there is a lot of black soot on the left (driver's) side tip, but pretty much nothing on the right side. Then this morning when it was like 32 degrees outside, I started the car early to warm it up. Then when I went back outside I noticed a lot of steam coming from the left tailpipe, but nothing from the right. Then later today when it was a little warmer I started it up, drove it around a lot, and parked it while it was still running. I got out and put my hand behind the exhaust tips. The airflow from the left was very high and very warm. The airflow from the right was minimal and felt pretty cool. I checked all the connections and there weren't any major leaks. The only leaks I found were a small one from the left side post-muffler(?!) and some black soot around the GT-R 180-degree bend weld on the right side ( ). I think it's the design of the system and the flow of the muffler. My guess is the left side gets most of the output, and the right side gets the remainder. I just wanted to know if you guys are experiencing the same thing, just in case there's a problem with my muffler. Thanks!

yea my driver side stock exhaust tip is always a little more dirtier than the passenger side. Haven't tested the airflow yet though.

well I always clean them before it really builds up, but I definitely notice more soot on the driver side. And the driver side tip is more pitted than the other side.

Not only this car, but even with my cougar..it was single exhaust stock, but I got an aftermarket dual exhaust system, and there was more airflow on the driver side...pretty strange how that works.
