Switching to dual exhaust

Texan_Stud · January 15th, 2007, 07:56 PM

I got together with my dad today (he knows how to weld, not me) and we talked about switching my car to dual exhaust. I suggested we goto a junkyard and find a 99-04 mustang gt and take the exhaust off and just hook them straight up to my car. I figured I can just throw some flowmaster or macs on later. So, I guess my real question is how large is the piping on the GT take-offs? I dont wanna go bigger than 2.25'.

gt take offs are easy and not to pricy. i think the piping is 2.25 but dont quote me.

Texan_Stud · January 15th, 2007, 08:09 PM

i really hope we find a busted up GT with flowmasters on it.. that would be a sweet find

tnee_97stang · January 15th, 2007, 08:26 PM

yeah it would. if i f'd up a get i would rip the flows off before i sent her to the graveyard. good luck though

xxrals22xx · January 15th, 2007, 09:46 PM

does that bolt right up?

ByPopularDemand · January 15th, 2007, 09:54 PM

a crossover and GT takeoffs should bolt right up

xxrals22xx · January 15th, 2007, 10:25 PM

how much is a crossover

ByPopularDemand · January 15th, 2007, 10:27 PM

Depends on where you get it and whether or not it has cats on it

take your pick

will the h pipe or x pipe, which ever it is, on a gt. bolt straight up to my exhaust manifold. if i did that i wouldnt have to buy an aftermarket mid pipe. i could just go to a junkyard and grab it while i get the take offs

006leenstang00 · January 31st, 2007, 11:54 AM

dude if ur tryin to go from the straight 6 exhaust to a gt dual exhaust get the pacesetter h pipe. It's a converter from 6cyl exhaust to 8 cylinder exhaust. I have the pacesetter h pipe w/ slp loudmouth exhaust and I think it sounds pretty damn nice! at some points you can almost mistaken it for a GT! if youre interested the cheapest price for it is on WWW.AMERICANMUSCLE.COM they have free shipping too! good luck

232stang · February 1st, 2007, 03:24 PM

ok, so will the mid pipe from a gt fit or not.

i bet it would but u may have to weld might not bolt right up but it would fit length wise for sure

I'm looking to get a 2006-2008 V6 Mustang. I just wanted to know if converting to a dual exhaust is street legal, and also wanted to see if anyone knew what kind of MPG or Hp increase i would see with CAI, dual exhaust, and smaller pulleys?

yes it's legal (unless you have emission because some set-ups kill that)

as for MPG and HP....maybe a couple of MPG but nothing to write home about....power wise you'll get a better increase then a new edge...but you'll need a tune since you're wanting an 05-09 model
