Question about exhuast fitment

well nothing really, possibly just hanger positions on the tips because a v6 bumper doesnt have cut outs. other than that they should be the same.

the mid pipes are different. on the gt's they have a factory h-pipe and the cat backs hook up right behind the h-pipe. the v6 mustangs have a factory y-pipe and the cat backs hook up to it.

And no, you can not simply bolt up a GT exhaust system to a v6. Fabrication can 'always' make things work, but look for something made specifically for a v6, and also your specific model year range, in your case, 01-04.

@OP...you have two good options to get a good aftermarket dual exhaust 1. have a shop custom fab your setup (most go this route to keep costs down) 2. buy a midpipe adapter that allows you to attach an aftermarket GT exhaust to you're car... any specific questions besides the ones answered? |

He asked the difference between the exhaust systems. There is NO difference.
You just need a dual exhaust mid-pipe (MAC, Pypes, Pacesetter, Jegs) to allow the piping to stay with a dual set-up. The rest will then bolt on. You also need a set of hangers for the second muffler

Dont even have to buy an exhaust system, most shops can get what you need themselves.

^^ This works too. They can in general fab the entire system starting after the headers if you want them too.
