Problem with dual exhaust?


Hi, I just got a gt takeoff system for my 2001 v6 and wanted to know if there is any problems brake line wise i should be concered about? According to the muffler guy at Meineke, there might be a problem putting them on due to the brake line on the right side being in the way. Has anyone heard of this problem? Thanks

I know what your talking about. The guy that put mine in told me he couldn't make the bend any higher because of the brake line.

h pipe gives it a better and less raspy sound so get a mid pipe, either x or h for sure IMO

will work on any 99-04 V6 same deal...i had a 03 GT catback on my 2002...usually they say the fuel lines are in the way or to close and they need to be moved to the left side...like wtf is the difference still next to the pipe...then they say the GTs are the same...then is where i tell them its not...and I know alot more about mustangs other then having a V6....thats when they reply well uh duh ah huh uh
