as of now we get 2 exhaust manifolds merging into 1 pipe
is it possible we get 2 manifolds going into 2 pipes?

As in dual exhausts all the way? I'd say not, I don't think I've ever seen an I6 where the 2 manifolds don't merge at some point, even if they do split off into dual exhausts further back.

If i recall correctly, my BMW E21 323 -79 had that, only place they were together was in the front muffler, and that was still two parallel tubes going trough.
But it was almost 20 years ago, could be wrong.

could you code that Daffy I mean when the exhausts split off into 2 after the Catalytic converter?

Mercedes Benz M104 on W140 has 2 split cats, BMW E36 325/328 doesn't merge, has 2 small cats
and they even don't merge in the back box, thus having dual pipes coming out

you are not mistaken my friend, all 6cyl BMWs bigger than 2.3 have split pipes

It's true, my Mercedes W126 280SE (I6) also had a dual pipe exhaust, and uses 2 separate pipes trough the mufflers.
Greetz,
