2001 Mustang V6, Exhaust Installation

TheStangMan11 · 10-14-2009

i have an 01 v6 stang and i want to put flowmaster super 40s on it but i am confused on the stuff i need to get, is the exhaust that i want to put on a cat back and so i am asking do i need an H or X pipe if i was going to get this system or could i install it with out the pype and what is the difference between a cat back and a true dual

catback is from the catalytic converters back to the bumper and true duals is from the headers back without a y-pipe...so there is truly 2 different separate exhausts. still true duals with an x-pipe or an h-pipe i think.

the piece containing your catalytic converters and the y-pipe are considered the midpipe.. something that attaches behind the midpipe is considered a catback.. divorced duals (sometimes referred to as true duals) involve modifying the midpipe by cutting the y off and running separate pipes to the rear

so what do i need to do to get that system that i was talking about on to my car

probably will need to go to an exhaust shop and have make you a midpipe and then put flowmasters on
