Question Dual Exhaust

If I install a dual exhaust kit on a 1995 Explorer 4.0L will I see any higher performance and would it sound ok? Flowmasters?

You will see some gains - none earth shattering - but good gains. The sound is the largest improvement.

Duals are very hard to do on X's unless you remove your spare tire. It creates all kinds of problems when trying to run the tubes...

Besides the new exhaust what about how your Exp. is going to breath. Duals and a cold air system or just a performance ( K&N or Accel) filter will help increce both ends. For a start.

you'll be happy with duals but i would go with Borla if i were you... they are the only ones who "gurantee" more horsepower.

if you want a loud sound dont put any filter on it b/c the filter makes it quieter

Yoshtin, i really, really, really hope you're not talking about your air filter....when i can get around to it, i'll post a pic of how i did my exhaust...it's not one you see very ofter, but it is far easier than running duals all the way out back.
