exhaust question
so i read the post on exhaust choices and found it very helpful.
ive decided on a dual exhaust y pipe system for my 95 v6.
first, does anyone know of a kit that DOES NOT need to be welded?
ive looked at flowmaster and it needs welding. im also looking at the MAC
but it doesnt say whether it needs welding.
second, ive heard that the v6 isnt designed with dual exhaust in mind and the pipes could present a danger to fuel lines.
should i be worried about this or will any kit i buy be fine?
thanks for the help

Getting it welded is better, seals it, like Codiddy said. And I don't think it presents a danger to fuel lines... many sixers have dual exhausts....only problems i've heard of is destroying the back bumper due to the pipes rubbing on it ect..

I got a welded dual side exhaust and that solves all those problems. If you really can't pay to get the whole thing welded, you can always get the main points tac welded...

I have this on my V6. It comes with everything but hangers. It was fairly easy to install, you need a floor jack, stands, sawzall, and basic hand tools. It sounds good and looks good. Getting the fitment right is what took the longest. It sound alot better and looks alot better too! I've had my kit on for 1 & 1/2 years and it is worth the money. I want to get a mac h pipe now though, and I'm stuck on what to do. If I had to do it again I'd get a V6 catted h-pipe and then a GT catback system.

i have a magnaflow catback on my v6 and i looks and sounds really good, and i didn't weld it. the only hard part was fitting it over the rear suspension. i had to take the wheels off and come in from that direction. other than that i haven't had any problems with it, just tighten everything back down after about 50 miles.
