Well, on the FC Racing Beat designed a system that was a true (actually) dual exhaust setup. On the renny gains are made when the exhaust header collection is as far down as possible (note RB header Vs Exoticspeed - there's a reason RB collects at the very last minute!). Here's a pic of the FC exhaust...
I wonder if the renesis (not you John) would have any gains from this? I mean, its been proven that a later collection is better but would no collection at all prove even better? Only beneficial for the FI guys perhaps? Weight gain Vs power gain?
Anyways, I've always thought it would be do-able for someone with the mandrel knowhow and proper materials to mate a manifold directly to this sucker...

of COURSE there's gonna be another dyno day. 
We'll probably shoot for January again since the end of the year seems pretty busy (and expensive) for most people.

Nice, I can't wait!
I'll be happy if I'm pushing anywhere north of 200rwhp w/ MS intake, perhaps RB header by then, RB resonator free midpipe, JIC full TI exhaust, RB Race Flash, new coils/magnecore wires/plugs just recently.

Dynos are really weird some times.
Last year there were quite a few surprises in the sense that cars WITH midpipes, intakes, etc didn't perform as well as I would have thought.
Then some cars were above where I thought they would be.
