Engine dual exhaust?

dual exhaust?

I just wanted t know what most of you think about either going dual exhaust or just having one.........or which is better........without the annoying farts!

dual = for looks only, will look stupid IMO, since we all know you drive an I4 1.8L lol..

your annoying fart comes from exhaust pipe sizing and buying a cheap muffler.

nice way to put it....thx

not really toyota corolla GT AE100 sedan that came stock w/ 4AGE 20v... had dual exhaust same w/ the Levin but thats bcuz they need the dual exhaust since it goes so high rpm... plus dual exhaust make air comes out better than a single which toyota stated in their new avalon...

Thats my setup when I get the 20v with stock dual muffler section.

I don't think it would be a bad idea if it were turbocharged...
Other than that, there is no real functional reason to do it.

^^ still useless.. you can't run twin pipes from the manifold, so you'll be running 2.5 or 3" piping back to the axle anyway.. so why branch off for two mufflers? turbos quiet the exhaust note anyway, so "more muffling" isn't needed..

ehh i'll quit arguing with you guys.. you clearly think there's functionality so i'll jsut walk away.

you realize the avalon is a V6 don't you?

dual exhaust is pointless on a inline 4. if you want better flow, run a bigger pipe..

the only reason toyota would do dual exhaust is to give better opportunity to quiet the exhaust note. . you think toyota cares about performance? that went away with the MR2/Supra years ago.

Dual exhaust would definately be different, depending on fow it is done, probably wouldn't look bad.

it'll be laughed at, trust me.. not to your face, but behind your back. you put duals on a 1.8 4cyl and you'll be labeled a ricer.

so why do it? if you're going "show scene" and your "bodykit" has cutouts for dual exhaust, i say go for it.. it's for looks anyway..

just do what chevy did or maybe still does. one side is real the other side is fake. just an option. seems really stupid though.

I do anything like that, it would be single exhaust, dual pipes/tips.

thats what i would do...

I've always wanted to run a dual exhaust on a 4 cylinder. Simply because it's different. And I mean a TRUE dual exhaust - header back. In truth, I know there wouldn't be a performance gain, but it would be interesting and certainly unique. I'm not going to do it for financial reasons...but if I could afford it, I probably would. There is a Mitsubishi Lancer around town here that has a dual exhaust setup and honestly, it sounds really good and I like the looks of it - of course, dual exhaust appeals to my eyes. I like it. But each to their own. I guess if it were a true dual exhaust, with firing order being 1-3-4-2, you'd pair 1&4 and 2&3 or 1&2 and 3&4 on the same pipe - no? In terms of loosing back-pressure, who's to say that decreasing the pipe diameter wouldn't solve that problem, eh?

dual exhaust will make your car slower and you dont need the extra weight

Duel exhaust is bad for inline 4 because we are not do anything that is 250hp+...If you do duel exhaust have fun losing hp and your car is not going to pick up at all.... I will agree with Tamago and vamp just go with bigger pipings...I say 2.5 no higher.....

Who revived this 3 month old post anyways?

As said, to each their own. Decrease the diameter of the piping, and as long as velocity of the exhaust gases doesn't decrease, no power should be lost, might even gain some - who knows...
