Ford Ranger 2.3 liter engines always impressed me. They are durable reliable and full of surprises. Oddly enough, the nearly same 2.3 resides in some fox body mustangs and I found out how to get that lovely low end rumble of a v8 without the high end weed whacker fuzz. It was simple and a happy accident. I pulled the busted stock muffler and grabbed a length of 2 inch exhaust stock pipe and used the bender with the 2 and a half inch dies. Staying in plane, I put two bends to line up like the muffler and decided to use the pipe with its flattened out oval shaped turns. The result is that as the sound resonated through the oblong curves cancelling out certain frequencies which used disruptive harmonics to cancel out the "fart-pipe" noise.
Do you have a video of the sound? I have a 2.3 ranger pretty much straight piped just a glass pack no cats it does kinda sound like a civic at really high rpm’s but sounds amazing at low rpm’s and would love to give your idea a try
For it to sound like a V8 they would habe to custom make a crossplane crankshaft and change the firing order with a custom cam. And then they would end up with a great sounding engine which would absolutely shake itself to death while making less power.
There are some confused people in this town still looking for a Subaru WRX lol (fyi, subis get their sound from an unequal length exhaust header leading to the turbo. Actually most v8s lope/burble is as pronounced as they are is because of the crossover pipe, making their exhaust headers essentially “unequal” as well. Yes, most v8s will have a lope without that but it’s more pronounced because of that)
That blew my mind !!! 🤯 I love it ! Awesome video !!! Ive been playing around with the exhaust on my Mazdaspeed3 right now it's 3" straight pipe from the turbo back. I never knew 4 cly. Could be so loud with a complete pipe ! I love this video ! Keep them coming ! I just subscribed ! Great job guys !
Damn I miss having my Zoom Zoom I had 2 speed3s back in the day both straight piped from the headers back everyone always thought it was a STI rolling up.
Idea to quiet it down and get rid of the clapy sound. Non-true 4 into 4. Basically done the exact same way you have but instead of putting cyl.s 1 and 3 into one pipe, leave them in two pipes but use two X pipes(total four for whole system). Each X turns the positive pressure wave into two positive and two negative waves, the second X is important for using the negative waves as sound canceling. I've seen/heard some exhaust shops use this method instead of adding mufflers to some vehicles. Also have no idea what would happen if you Y'd each side down to one pipe after it goes through the double X. I for one would really like to see/hear you try it.
@@direfox240 I actually have done an x, and a y setup before. The only reason I don’t run them is as soon as you cross the two sound waves it kind of cancels out and sound like a regular 4 again. By a performance standpoint, yes it would be very helpful. I tried putting the crossover just before the exit to try and keep it separated longer, but when it’s that far back in the system it doesn’t really do much of anything. I think mostly for the “snappy” problem the best way would be some larger diameter pipe as all of them I’ve done are 2”. It’s just a little difficult to fit big pipe under small cars, with a muffler, and twice. Maybe some resonators, or just actually good engineered/ more expensive mufflers would do it.
I had put dual exhaust on a 1976 Subaru DL 1.4 liter, 4 speed manual trans, 4 door car I had. Original exhaust had rusted away. The engine has two exhaust ports one on each head. Boxer style engine. They originally had 1 1/4" pipe. I put 2" from engine to rear on both sides with a 24" glasspack on each. I was working at shop that did exhaust work. Tips turned down behind rear bumper. Reving it up would blow dust up. Sounded wicked as heck. Ugly little rust bucket of a car but sounded mean. Had several kids want to buy it. Car finally rusted so bad rear suspension started coming lose from body and I parked it. Some day I plan to use motor and trans to build a small buggy or cart.
I built a Ford Lima 2.3 liter engine with a dirt track race cam in a Mustang to run on the street . I bought a header and a glass Pack from a JC Witley catalog, and it made it sound a pissed off lawnmower.
I put an equal length long tube header on my 2.4l tacoma. Definitely made it louder and happier. Those exhaust pulses are just pissed off at what you did! Got that subaru "unequal length header" burble. Cool stuff!
Wait... is that Cavy running a "tu-tu"? Well, buddy... I've gotta say this: Thank-you. You've just shown me how to make the exhaust on my "fleeter" S-truck sound distinct.😊
Man I love what you are doing I always thought about it and wonder how it would it sound it sounds like a old Volkswagen bug with dual pipes like a vw dune buggy great video kens automotive 😎
I’m excited to see that inline six setup, pairing 1-5, 3-6, 2-4 would probably sound similar to your 1-2, 3-4 setups on your trucks. Now If you did 1-2, 3-4 and 5-6 it’ll have a 120 (240* crank) degree firing ( except 3-4, those will have a 360*firing) and sound similar to a Harley coming out of each pipe. Or more like an Indian scout since those have 60 degree twins and have similar firing
Outsides together and insides together gives you equal pulse distribution, which is the route to maximum scavenging. Many Toyotas use(d) a cast manifold that paired the outsides and the insides, then a steel dual downpipe that merged about 18 to 24 inches down.
I really want to hear what that old Celica Supra is going to sound like. I had an 88 Celica (fwd inline 4) and cat backed the exhaust. Ditched the resonator and upsided to 2.25 inch pipe with a muffler. It had a really deep, throaty idle and a bit of rasp at higher RPM. Sounded pretty damn good.
On the 2jz would scavenging increase or decrease if you gave each pulse some time between firing? Meaning, instead of sequential firing order, go every-other cylinder so it would be 1-6, 5-2, 3-4. Performance aside, I'm more curious to see if the exhaust notes from the tri-pipe setup harmonize or clash. One of the headers is going to be considerably shorter and higher in pitch unless you make all the runners equal length. Lots to consider, this is fun!
How about no header at all ! Use stock manifold then use the standard exhaust pipe size then incrementally increase diameter to 2" then 4" ? I've seen it done on Nascar's !
I saw this video at the right time. I'm planning out my mini truck project out of a Scion XD and wanted to do stacks. I wanted to make a true dual but was wondering what the different firing orders would sound like. Now I know what to do. Thank you for the video I'm looking forward to the 2j exhaust. Try a magnaflow 14 or a magnapack muffler. It took all the trumpet and rasp from my yaris and gave it a deep smooth sound. I have a video of it on my channel. Good luck man 👍
Sounds Cool, like a Harley or Subaru or something. i always wanted to try and do an exhaust mod and tune job to an old 200ci or 3.3L Ford I-6 (or whatever they had) in a '79 Fairmont. but the car rusted to heck and was scrapped before we ever had time or money to spend on a wacky project.
I love it, sounds better than most performance header setups. I'm curious if there's a performance difference, or how it'd sound going into a single pipe.
This reminds me of the video haters garage did on his channel. When he did true quad exhaust it sounded awesome! Wish I'd had this knowledge back then. I would have had the basest sounding ranger around.
Before you unveiled the cavalier I just had a hunch that it was probably gonna be the cavalier after you said “both my cars have the same firing order and engine” there’s only one truck and car combo that comes to mind that basically share the same exact parts 😛😛 staring at the 96’ s-10 engine in my 02’ cavalier as I type this I passed right at 2:00 when i saw those darn headlights I just knew it!!! Gonna try this on my cavalier it has a custom ground cam in it let’s see how she eats!!
I know a Subaru engine will sound similar to this even with a single pipe exhaust. Can you add a crossover pipe or a long tube collector at some point that will smooth out/quite down that rasp?
I had a minitruck with a 4 cylinder and straight pipe off the cat. Sounded so much better than y’all’s stuff here. Duals on a v6 sounds better than what you got there.
If Detroit Diesels and Subaru made an engine together lol I love this video, I think about shit like this all the time but don't have the time, resources or energy to make it happen
What if… If each exhaust port split into two separate runners for a total of 8 runners? Then you have 4 equal length runners, 2 shorter, and two longer runners. Would that achieve close to cross plane v8 sound?
I thought the eagle flew overhead in a circular pattern to protect it. Kinda like helicopters over the ground troops lol. Edit, changed motion to pattern!
Years ago, I wanted true duals on my old rabbit diesel pickup. So I used an early dual outlet manifold ,and cut the 2 into 1 downpipe before the junction. Added in some pipe and glass packs and they came out just behind the door. Sounded like crap until like 4500rpm, reminded me of my old 79 Honda cb400😔 Edit: those manifolds joined 1+4 together,and 2+3.
I'm just curious what 4 cylinder engine would be more reliable/dependable a 22R Toyota or a k20 /k24 Honda? I do want to turbocharge either engine that I end up choosibg hoping for 200HP-300HP. Thanks richard holdener.
Could you try one with just one of the tubes way longer like the Subaru's? I'm very interested in the results, as it makes blatty Honda 4bangers sound unique just with a single. Hell, maybe try with one way longer on each bank 🤔 Edit To decrease the volume and lower the tone it might be worth looking into larger diameter piping after the header
@@howiefeltersnatch2973 if you listen close you can hear the tone difference between them. The trucks are unequal length, where as the cavalier has equal. It’s hard for cameras to do it justice, but they sound very different to each other in person
man I would absolutely love to hear what they would sound like if you hooked a couple of flowmaster 40's to them. or even the cheap summit flowmaster 40 knockoffs. that would be wicked.
I need to hear a Jeep 4.0 with true dual. I've been wanting to do it for years, but I don't weld and just keep getting told "it won't work" "you'll lose power" "not enough back pressure" oh and "too much pipe" because i wanna run 2.5" off each collector
LOL I had an 89 ranger with a 2.3l in it. One day while driving the exhaust broke off at the collector and man that thing sounded mean! LOL had to wear ear plugs until I got the time to weld it. Sitting at a stop light it sounded so mean
So, if you pair 1&3 and 2&4 , and then make the primarys unequal length, you will come very close to a crossplane sound (but at the expense of power---but who cares) 😊 A crossplane 4cyl would have a 1-4-3-2 firing order (with firing events at 90 and 270deg) which is a big part of the choppy sound, not the exhaust piping. A flatplane 4cyl has even firing events at 180deg. Thats why a Harley has that unique sound, a Japanese cruiser V twin is even-fire so doesn't have the potato-potato idle a harley does.
Both header arrangements will give you the same 180 degree firing. If you want to try a different firing you can pair 2-3 and 1-4 for a 360 degree firing, and I highly recommend a glass pack on each side to take the edge off the sound
@@spartanboss4189 the first header we made was exactly that, during the video if you pause when the photo of the whole system is on the floor you can see the 1-4 and 2-3 pairing with a glass pack on either side, though small ones, but they’re there
Oh I see, I was basing it off of your drawing. I didn’t realize you did the twin 360 firing setup already, and yeah the reason why the 360 firing sounds like a weed whacker is because it shares the same firing interval as a 2 stoke single
M90 blower with a homemade manifold is actually easy to fab up and bolt to the side the block. Run the pulley with a longer serp belt. 10lbs wont do much for a little 4 banger ...maybe 50HP 30lbs of torque but it sure would sound awesome with that exhaust
You should try this on something that revs super high like, an old clapped out Corolla or Celica with the 1zz/2zz is good cheap way to get something that revs to 8k
Old school four cylinder motorcycles with dual exhausts were set up like this.
my first thought when hearing it was that it sounded like a motorcycle.
When I clicked on the video it had 11 views. When it was done playing it had 9. Guess I’m -2 people

True headers are tuned. The tubing of the engine are the same length to the collector

making the primary tubes unequal lengths will help with the sound.

M90 blower with a homemade manifold is actually easy to fab up and bolt to the side the block. Run the pulley with a longer serp belt. 10lbs wont do much for a little 4 banger ...maybe 50HP 30lbs of torque but it sure would sound awesome with that exhaust
Congrats on making Beetle noises.
To me it sounds like an old-school straight six with a split header JC Whitney catalog sold em in the 70s☮️
Vw has had this sound for years.
You should try this on something that revs super high like, an old clapped out Corolla or Celica with the 1zz/2zz is good cheap way to get something that revs to 8k
