exhaust

i have always made my own exhaust system rather than buy a premade one.(its just what i do) my mufflers came in today. i see a lot of cars with the tips going up and out. Question one: is this the norm?  Question two: are these acceptible to the style?

seen simalar concept just different and a bit cleaner designs

should they be mounted with the tips facing up or down?

Um, those don't really fit this style. What car is this going on?

that was my original question.  i have a 94 GS with a 2jzgte engine swap.

Imo the mufflers with the tips pointing up is more of an old school vip styling que (big kits, wheels, crazier styling).  The newer style is more of a cleaner look like aimgain or autocouture (round and simple).  It just depends on what look you like better. IMO those muffs you got dont really fall into either but I say do your own thing.

sidepipes or semi stacks!

Edit, thats a popular j's racing style and a few other circuit racing garage's style of exhaust.

Wont fit the style.  Thats more like something that would be seen on a coupe like a rx-7

looks more like a race car exhaust my friends got 2 of those on his 240z it sound kinda ricey though

the car will sound like a turbo supra either way i go because of the engine i have in the car
