no you dont have to move your spare wheel tub. Theres a thread on this I believe. There two main ways people on here do it, they'll either remove the secondary cat and put the muffler there and run pipes on either side of the tub or have the muffler where the stock one use to be and run a second pipe along the bumper to the other side (thats how Rollnnn has his done)

It looks like he got the C55 spare well, and installed C55 dual muffler exhaust system...

Actually there are 3...Rollin style is one, C55 is 2, and the way i have it...mine is actually a 2 output (M3/M5) style muffler with one out going straight out on drivers side, other output goes around the front of the spare wheel well and comes around to the pass side

if not what exhaust is that ?

he has the dual outlet facing the cat or front of the car. Its kinda like how 350z have there muffler setup sideways but this way is just facing front to rear so the passenger pipe comes out from the outlet facing the cat wrapping around the wheel hub to the other side.

Has anyone tried this way? I dunno if there'd be enough room between the bumper and wheel hub, maybe in front of it, it'd be another way to do dual exhaust. think i'll get under my car and do some measuring to see what I can come up with.
