I'm looking into getting a good dual exhaust for my '03 V6 and was wondering what would be the best way to go? I've had some people tell me Borla but wanted to get some insight from other Mustang owners before i drop 800 bucks or so on an exhaust

Full exhaust: BEST GAINS in sound and perf.- Mac long tubes, mac short offroad H pipe, gt mustang catback of choice Midpipe and catback: Second-Best gains in sound and perf.- Highflow or offroad X/H pipe and gt catback of choice Cheap ass Y-pipe catback: Cheap-Ass gains in sound and perf.- everyone makes them and they suck. There are a lot of threads about what each setup can provide, and there is even a main page article on it.

most of those gains are in the long tubes and mid pipe. MAINLY long tubes, which most people dont get them when they get their exhaust no matter how much we push it out there.
i didnt get them but that was before i got on this site, and before i knew how much of a pain it was to get them installed now.

if you want fulll exhaust and you plan on getting long tubes later, just get them now! just so you know the whole thing is gonna cost near $900 compared to an exhaust shop doing it for $300-$400

keep in my i went to an exhaust shop. they used 2.25 inch piping, that i now dont want, NO MID pipe just straight back pipes, and no long tubes and they sed i might have gained about 1hp.

go the $900 route, your gettting 2.5in pipes, a MID pipe that'll flow better and best sounding. and the long tubes which the whole set up will probably shoot you 15-20 if you engine is stock. if its not and you have some other mods you can see 20-25 hp. and some say eventually you can get 30hp out of the whole thing. idk about that but i know your gonna at least see 15-20hp. and a badass sound

CAI Underdrive pulley add some gears and t-lok to it. then you really need to think about what you want if you want to go further __________________ 437rwhp and 402rwtq through a V6 on a stock bottom end
