My friend asked a question about Exhaust Tail-pipes?

As I am always doing, I use this place to gather other people's opinions on my friends' curiosities.

A friend of mine asked me something related to cars. It was a performance question, but I am no mechanic nor tuning enthusiast. Maybe y'all can help me.

He wants to change the "boring" stock exhaust-system on his (08? 09?) Toyota Camry SE V-6 (2GR-FE, i believe it's called?) with a more "vocal" one, obviously. Why he wants to do this, no idea, but here's what I think of this. I noticed that the car's stock exhaust is a single assembly (meaning there is only ONE visible exhaust tailpipe at the back). Does that mean he cannot do what he wishes to do with his car since most aftermarket exhaust systems call for DUAL type exhaust pipe assembly beforehand (which he clearly doesn't) even when stock?

Tell me what you think...

There are many options for replacing the exhaust on a car. Aftermarket systems come in both dual and single exit exhaust. On cars the muffler and exit pipes are one unit so you are in turn replacing everything from the muffler back-- "cat back exhaust system" If he wants to go the dual route they will have to split the exhaut using a y pipe and install new hangers. Just check with the manufacturer to make sure that the exhaust will fit his particular application. He should have no problems doing this.
