I did. You realy won't get that v8 rumble sound from the 3.8. You will get a low rumble at idle then as you get going it starts to sound like the car swollowed a couple ricers.


I had the dynomax turbo lers installed. I had cats on mine also. The exhaust shop made an H pipe from a stock 5.0 mustang pipe.

no headers or nothing i was thinking of going with flowmasters cuz i heard there good. but anyway how do u keep the flow down? cuz some guy said that u could blow the motor with true duals. which sounds kind of wierd

Hes feeding you a line of BS with blowing the motor. No the exhaust shop made it to work with the stock manifold.

As for flowmaster. I personaly don't like the sound they make. On my list of lers to look at are:
1. Warlock by Flow Tech
2. Turbo II by Dynomax
3. Spintech

They also made the exhaust 2.25" not 2.5". This is becasue the car dosn't flow enough exhaust gas for the 2.5".
