My turn to show off - 5/28/2005 10:53:53 PM    rjonesjr34   Posts: 67 Joined: 4/4/2005 Status: offline Finally after 2 months of working on it got all the parts together and ran true dual exhaust with the Gt mufflers. Sounds great and a noticable increase in performance with new intake and headers. Attachment (2) Post #: 1

I'm really starting to like the look of the V6's with cutouts for the dual exhaust... in my opinion, it makes for a cleaner rear end than the GT. I thought I'd never cut my bumper, but I'm really considering it more and more. (in reply to jthedges05) Post #: 4

It really wasnt too hard at all. (in reply to jthedges05) Post #: 5

I'll post a clip soon as I figure out how. (in reply to texas_stang) Post #: 8

Did you have a shop bend them and you put them in or did you use the GT pipes? I have some GT mufflers on the way and I assumed that I would go to a muffler shop at least for the driver's side, but if there's a way to do it myself, I'm all over that.

RE: My turn to show off - 5/30/2005 2:46:55 PM    rjonesjr34   Posts: 67 Joined: 4/4/2005 Status: offline I had them cut out the whole system and run 2, 2 and 1/2 inch pipes pretty much strait back from the cats and bend them over the rear axle. It only cost about 340 for all the work and it opened my engine up alot, feels like I added at least 7 rwhp. (in reply to MustangBuddha) Post #: 11
