The Fiero Store sells these:

You would also need hangers, since you don't have the spring support system for the muffler, and the muffler doesn't have provisions for the springs. These aren't indicated for the 88, but you would need something similar for both sides.

I've mounted other V6 exhaust systems under other 88 Duke cars, too.
There was never a dual outlet system made, for the 88 coupe.

I would be satisfied, if the dimensions were at least close, I could make it fit.

It used to be that we went to an exhaust shop, and they had straight pipe of various sizes, and bending equipment. They made everything on the spot. Anyghing like that available there?
Just me! :-)
That's why I said I'd be satisfied if the dimensions were close, I could make it fit. I have a Turkish friend, who has a garage with lifter, welders, tools and the whole 9 yards.
Just wish his heater would work better.............lol

I had been looking for a dual exhaust for the 88 Duke but couldn't find one here in Germany.
Reason I wanted a new one was that ours had a terrible rattle and was rather loud, hence, I thought time for a new one.A friend of ours might not be Fiero savvy, but he DOES KNOW cars.
He asked "Didn't you just recently replace your cat conv?" I asked him why he wanted to know and he asked what it looked like on the inside? I said it was completely empty and rusted out. He said "That's your problem. The parts from your cat are now in your muffler!"We took it out today, cut it open, and sure enough, all good except for fragments from the converter. Removed them, packed it a little with glass wool and welded it shut again and installed it.
Sounds like a new muffler! ;D

Also amasing, sounds like you did find an option for the V6 in Germany??

By the way, the stock Duke exhaust system only has the outlets on the driver's side. That looks like a V6 (or a 4 cylinder SE or Indy) system.
Not that it mattes, now. :D

Good "save"!

Guess ours is an "SE". If it wasn't already, it is now. Hah! ;D

86 and 87 SE models all had the aero package and were also available with the Duke engine. Those Dukes were equipped with the quad exhausts, giving it the same appearance of the V6's. The 85 SE V6 had quad exhausts resembling the later Formula exhaust, not having the chrome megaphones. The Indy also had the quad exhaust with chrome megaphones.

Were there functional quad tips, also, or just the cutouts?
Ours are functional.
The exhaust has one inlet and two outlets.
After cutting it open, I found three SS internal pipes, all still in good shape, hence it was worth saving.
