Default Would it be possible...

If I bought an exhaust adaptor kit (http://www.mustangtuning.com/v6duexadkit1.html) could I set up a SLP Loudmouth onto that or would I have to stick with just the Steeda catback?

Yes sir you could, dont think anyone hear has done it but DAMN would that be one hell of a loud sixer. You could also look into buying the 'mufflers' from SLP (if you cant call them that) and having a shop weld you up an exhaust from your Y pipe, but you would have to buy tips etc. It wouldbe cleaner to do the Y pipe and GT catback...

Awsome. It might be a while before I get it done because my next spending spree is going to be on some 17x9 FR500's and new tires. If I get that going I'll post a vid for you guys.

Not to hijack the thread but, what exactly is the point of the V6->GT adapter?
Does it let you install an X/H pipe and dual catback?

Does it make it "true dual"

I'm confused. :wallbash:

It is basically converting your Y pipe into an H pipe. When it is done, it is true dual. You keep your stock downpipe and headers, but it requires cutting of the downpipe. You also need to grab a new catback, as all the V6 ones are meant for the Y pipe, you need to get a GT one. I dont imagine there being a real power benefit over using an exhaust designed for a V6, only thing would be that SLP and bassani and a few others make really good catbacks, just not for the sixer.

I think I've got a change of heart as far as my stang goes. I think I'm just going to keep it stock for now and then a year or so into college I'll get either an '05-'06 GT or a '96-'03 Cobra. I'm leaning more towards getting a GT because I love the new style, but it all depends on the prices I find then.

03 cobras are nice, but 96-03 is a tall difference, lol, and i do liek the 05+, in a few years my lil bro will have one, lol
You don't have to dump money into your car to enjoy it till you get a new one, spend wisely. I paid 300 dollars w/ shipping included for a catback on my v6 and it woke up that car, paid 300 for rims with shipping with tires and it looked remarkable. Car was fun to drive and with a few other cosmetic mods it was one hot SN95...

Yea, I need new tires and I think I'll just get the rims polished. I also need new struts and shocks so I'll just get some new springs and c/c plates with all that.

Those '03s are hott but I late the older models too. It all depends on what kind of deals I can find at the time and how much money I can put down. I really want one of the '05+s. I don't think I'll get another V6 just for the fact that you can't do a whole lot in terms of performace if you want to be competative at all. My uncles own Cox Bros. Racing and they do stock car drag racing. They've been helping me look for deals on Rousch stuff because they've got a good buddy that they do business with.

Okay, thanks. So if I did that, I won't be able to use an aftermarket H or X pipe, since the adapter makes the stock Y into one.. right?

If so, is there anything I could do to have it use any ole GT X/H

Default for ghostwalker

I was wondering what kind of exhaust for his six did ghostwalker get for $300 that woke his car up. I have been looking at exhaust for my 97 v6 and exhaust is expensive. So where and what did ghostwalker get for his v6?

03 AND 04 cobras had a supercharger, and the 2000 Cobra R had a 5.4l which is NOT supercharged.
