exhaust question about winter

xSxTxAxNxGx · September 28th, 2007, 03:36 PM

how fast will a custom exhaust job get destroyed b/c i live in NY and i drive my 2001 v6? recommend a stainless system please...i want a low tone

Juggalo_X · September 28th, 2007, 03:39 PM

get it custom done in stainless with some flow masters for a low tone. have them fab a h-pipe too.

HMUSN · September 28th, 2007, 03:39 PM

10 years easy.

you shouldn't be driving a mustang in the snow in the first place.

SS Exhaust is expensive.

I suggest you use reg exhaust and just get it coated with rust guard.

it's $20.00 a can.

xSxTxAxNxGx · September 28th, 2007, 03:53 PM

the exhaust will last 10 years even tho i drive it in the snow?

HMUSN · September 28th, 2007, 03:54 PM

sure will.

I doubt the mustang will make it driving in snow for ten years without crashing though.

^ think about how us v8 guys feel...

I couldn't release my clutch without spinning my tires let alone trying to hit the gas..

-cold-machine- · September 28th, 2007, 05:55 PM

driven my msutang in snow for several years yes it was a four banger
but non the less a mustang. And I knew a few people
that drive there 5.0 in the snow none smacked up yet.

whitemustang02 · September 28th, 2007, 06:03 PM

ya i have to it is my only car and in all that time i have had countless spin out saves and one spin out that was in to a bank of flufy snow so i got luck there

Top Gear · September 28th, 2007, 06:30 PM

I drive mine in snow never had a problem and I drove it through some pretty severe blizzards.... you just have to drive slow like 30mph is what I usually aim for in snow some times slower just depends on how much snow there is. I have the traction control option on my car though. It helps out alot, I turned it off to see the difference and it's huge!

-cold-machine- · September 28th, 2007, 07:15 PM

just throw the car in second gear is good enough..
ive had my spin outs mainly cuz of stupidity.
meaning:
"YAY theres snow i can pretend like my four banger
has so much power i can slide. " lol.

i have driven on the highways during blizzards with it and still
doin over the speed limit. 80kmph on that high way and was still
doin 100-120kmph

Murderjetz · September 28th, 2007, 09:44 PM

holy crap another Manitoban! about damn time.
dude i live like 25 minutes south of Winnipeg.

anyway, my Mustang has been driving through winters for 13 years and still going strong!
yeah the underside is all rust-covered...but the body itself is perfect.

Its hard enough managing the rain sometimes. I couldnt imagine full blown northern snow storms.

Lt_Crazy · September 29th, 2007, 11:29 PM

^^^ its really not that bad.....if ur carefull!!! like every one elsr saud no speading and no steep hills if possible

Fryrice · September 30th, 2007, 02:11 AM

Well,if you live in Canada your used to it. Down here in the mid-Atlantic we rarely get snow. And if we do its only about an inch and they close everything down,lol.

02ponypackage · September 30th, 2007, 02:54 PM

get destroyed ? I lived in NY for a long enough time and dont see someones exhaust getting destroyed...just keep your car as clean as possible during the snow fall with the ice and salt bs on the roads...wash under the car when u get a chance thats all
