I thought the 4 cyc was an inline motor. How do you put true duals on that?

As far as I know it is an I-4 with the exhaust coming off of just one side of the block. Or at least my 2.3 is.

Edit - I really need to change my avatar

I understand what you are saying spilt the exhuast at the header. I have seen some racing 4 bangers do that. the problem is your 4 banger does not make enough exhuast to make it worth while. unless you use like 1/2 inch pipe you will have no back pressure and you will lose a lot of power.

There's not even really enough reason to put true duals on either of the 6 cylinders offered in Rangers.
