2001 Mustang GT. Added An X Pipe And Love My Cars New Sound
ok last night I put an X pipe on my 01 gt. Its a PYPES brand x pipe and seemed to be good quality. The install was pretty simple all except the one nut on the passenger side that requires a swivel it was a pain in the a$$ man it was tight. unhooked the 4 02 sensors dropped it down and slid the new one in fit real nice. I bought mil eliminators for the best mill eliminator they where like $ 15.00 for both of them. come with good directions I spliced them into the rear sensors and had no problems and no check engine light.
the mufflers I have are magnaflows and with the x pipe sound awesome. going down the road at highway speeds it is great can still enjoy the radio and it rides like a sleeper. But when you put your foot in it or want it to this thing comes to life with sound and sounds great.
just thought I would share my excitement.
congrats i had my magnaflows with o/r x mine was bbk which isnt the best brand, i like the accel tone but i hated the decel pop. definately magnaflow makes great systems. you have the regular mufflers or the magnapacks?
also the mils if they are true mils they are plug in i believe what you have are 02sims
post up an exhaust clip....
i have had almost 4 diff system setups lol.... i found my home with mac h and mac catback
congrats again.

thats an almost identical setup to what i had, i had a bbk catted x pipe and magnaflow catback, the thing i loved about it was that it was somewhat quiet at cruising (insude the car, outside it was nice, deep, and throaty) but when you nailed the gas it was amazing....cant wait to get that again.

i got a upr o/r x with 1 chamber flo's and its kinda obnoxious. its really loud inside and out. i was thinking about getting slp's to be louder but, i think im going to do longtubes with o/r H and the 1 chambers. i think that will be a nice setup.
lol ok this sounds stupid but with that passenger side inner bolt.. i took it off 3 or 4 times and put it back on just so id get it right... like you said with the swivle i was busting my balls with extensions then i baught my new best friend (other thank duct tape) the swivle and the instal went hella easy im glad to hear that you like the new midpipe i have the same 1 and love it

LOL, I had completely forgotten about that one bolt on the passenger side downpipe. My knuckles were destroyed after doing a midpipe on my 03 GT. I think I had a 4 inch extension with a deep well socket, a swivel and a 9 inch extension all on an impact ratchet. It took a LONG time to get it all on correctly and I wound up double nutting it so it wouldn't back off but it worked like a champ.
