Yes that is the way they hook up. I have the Pacesetter H-pipe on my 95, this does not replace the cats. You have to cut the stock Y-pipe just past the cats, and then weld the new H-pipe in. That way you are using the stock headers and cats, keeps you legal.

Default H Pipe for a V6

Joey, From 1999 to the current year, it is not recommended that you use a pacesetter adaptor/h-pipe. They can be used, but you will have to modify the pacesetter so much that you might as well have a custom H-pipe made for your car.

You don't need new headers. You can buy a cat-back system made for a GT of the same year and then take the system to a good muffler shop and have them custom make an H-pipe and fit the cat-back exhaust. We are talking a max of $300 to have this done. I have heard usually around $150.

Try to stick with a system that uses 2.25 inch diameter dual tubes. This is the factory size for most GT's and you can sometimes find a used GT system for a decent price. Just make sure it is not all hacked up. Saleen sells some "take off" systems that are practically brand new for a cheap price. 2.5" inch diameter will work ok, but unless you plan to turbo or supercharge, you will lose some bottom end power.

I hope this helps! If you got anymore question, don't hesitate to ask. The V6 Forum Rules

Default Just another question?

Hey, I was just wondering if my friends 5.0 exhaust will fit on my car... He drives one of the older 5.0's... And I am just wondering if I could fit the dual exhaust on the stock bumper for the time being until i get a new GT bumper or something like that??

I don't think it is worth it..well..maybe just the mufflers . Are you talking aobut eh GT or lx? i don't think they have the same mounting locations, but you still might be able to use it without any problems.

Default V6 Exhaust

The earlier model exhaust won't fit on the later 99+ years. Plus, you would still have to pay to have it adapted.

I have seen used (barely used) GT dual exhaust from the cats-back going for $150. Pretty cheap! And if you hunt around hard, you can prob find a muffler shop willing to adapt it over for around $50. Although you take your chances with a shop doing it so cheap, you can get it done on a budget.
