You have to get a new mid pipe, either a x or h. then any GT side exhaust kit will bolt up to it. Like the rousch or the steeda.

This is exactly what i did to use the steeda side exhaust. I bought a MAC H-pipe, and the exhaust and it bolts right up. Go for it!

do yourself a favor and just get a catback side exhausts sound like doodoo

side exhausts are notorious for ripping out

6er_w/a_Vengance · September 18th, 2008, 03:18 PM

on a v6 a side exhaust does sound pretty raspy compared to a good straight back design...

00RoushV6 · September 18th, 2008, 04:09 PM

I have a side exhaust made by Roush. The problem that I find with it it speed bumps. I have had issues with it almost getting ripped completely out. I also have spring overs that have lowered my ride 1.5" in the front and 0.8" in the back. Other then that you are going to need an X-Pipe or an H-pipe

I was thinking of doing side exhaust until I read some problems with the clearance. It would be horrible to spend all that money and hit a speed bump <which ARE everywhere these days> and have them rip out....love the look, but I'm not doin' it. So THANKS for posting up..saved my a ton of $$

00RoushV6 · September 18th, 2008, 10:53 PM

It has great sound and performance, but the low clearance is a killer. Glad that I could be of assistance.

00Roushv6 NOICE RIDE! love that exaust man....

It would be cheaper to get a couple magnaflow mufflers and get a shop to make you one.
You have to be careful going over speed bumps, I have bottomed mine out a few times.

yeah i was thinkin ov this but im not sure if they would sound good or not???

00RoushV6 · September 19th, 2008, 08:21 AM

If my car didn't come with the side exh. already done, I would not have done it. I think I would have gone with a good 2.5" - 3" x-pipe into ford racing tips Just a personal pref. I like the look it gives. Not that I don't like the look of mine. Just don't like the pain of not being able to go over some speed bumps...

GreenFaleen · September 19th, 2008, 09:11 AM

hey 00Roush you run at Fayetteville Dragway any? your car look familiar

00RoushV6 · September 19th, 2008, 09:17 AM

GreenFaleen · September 19th, 2008, 10:50 AM
