New News & A Mid-Pipe
 
Word to all ya'lls mothers. I'll bring you up to speed for those who are always pondering why I come and go so easy.

1. I did get the Mustang back and started making payments to my parents.

2. A week after I got my Mustang back, I got docked on Highway 68/80 for doing twenty bucks over, court date, all that fun stuff (one of those late night only-car-on-the-road situations.) I had pulled out my CB the few months before and I had left my radar in Murray (And they nailed me with a K-Band... what luck I have.)

So with the insurance and all that good stuff, I could take the car off the road for the year until my driver's insurance premium starts to come down or I could pay a ridiculous amount of the car while also paying off my parents for a car payment. Keep in mind I'm in college. So I decided to pull it off the road and, alas, work on it! Yeah!

So I've got 35mm spacers lined up, some interior work (that I originally ****ed up myself and I want to fix) amongst other things.. I've pretty much visually tricked it out as much as I can aside from a GT hood and what now. For those of you who have forgotten.....

Yes, for those of you unaccustomed to my creation, its a half-assed looking Saleen V6 Automatic. Hollluuurrr! Anyway. I want to buy a mid-pipe, an off-road mid-pipe.

The car's sitting in the carport in Murray and once I get it registered (after the inspections and all that) I want to pull off my Y-Pipe (it has had problems with the driver's side CAT anyway) and replace it with a X or H pipe, offroad. I have stock headers (not looking to replace them anytime soon) and I was looking at AM's MAC off-road H-pipe, http://www.americanmuscle.com/9904v6...ad-h-pipe.html

So I need your advice before I put the money down here folks, hit me back up, I've trusted ya'll for roughly two grand of stuff from MT, so don't let me down now.

Don't buy anything for at least a month. Look and look some more until you 100% know what you want to do. That's my only advice.

That's why I'm asking for help. Good to see you Greg, looking good.:ohsnap:

he probably has the dual exhaust Y pipe converter.. which connects to the Y pipe and splits to both ends of the car.

i dont think there is such a thing b/c it would be pointless. it would be the same as an hpipe adaptor. well it not a big deal i was just pondering.

I haven't really gotten underneath it enough to actually truely inspect it (the dual-system was on their when I bought the car,) but from what I gathered the two times I saw the exhaust was that it was a complete hack-job, welded. It's got a Y-Pipe but it splits and picks up the two cats and the actual piping is a take-off GT catback.

It's a real cheap job, so I'm looking to slowly get rid of it. The mid-pipe's gotta go though, one of the catalytic converter's is shattered and it keeps throwing codes.

So I'm looking to remove the current hackjob mid-pipe and replace it with an off road H-pipe. I dont have any problems with the catback, so, just the midpipe for now.

I have a kit from mac which bolts right on to the Y-Pipe. As stated above it bolts on and then splits into two for the dual exhaust.

Well regardless of which mid-pipe I have, I'm looking to remove it and replace it with another.

and the magnapack system, and i believe the also make a flowmasters system, also a borla system...where have you been buddy? there has always been y pipe catbacks...lol

Milos 01-11-2007 11:18 AM

All I know is that it's a hack job down there... it sounds decent but I've had to had the pipe's rehung twice. Is slowly gotta go man, maybe in the springtime I can meet up with csledd and get her opinion on it.
