Default You cannot have a TRUE dual exhaust on an inline engine. (m)

A dual system on a 1.8t would actually probably hurt performance as you'd be increasing the amount of plumbing. You would have to make something that looks a little like the opposite of the stock V6 or S4/A6 2.7t system.

your 100% correct... you should only have one exhaust per cylinder bank.
