Just talked to my exhaust guy and decided to go with the mandrel bent fox Mustang GT tailpipes based on our conversation.  He said with his pipe bender, it would be hard to replicate the GT turndowns.  The only way he would be able to do it right would be to weld on some sort of chrome turndowns, and that is not what I want.

So I ordered Walker/Dynomax 2.5" GT style tailpipes and he is going to lengthen them for me.  Hope they get here quick as my appointment is Tuesday.

 
It's a great way to go!  I've been pleased with the GT style tailpipes on both exhuast systems I've had on the car.  Hope the holiday weekend doesn't hook you on delivery.

Yeah I'm afraid they won't arrive in time.  It said they were in stock and coming from Ohio (Summit Racing) so maybe that will help.

I have a tracking number, they automatically email you one when you place the order.  You can't always trust their estimated arrival times though.

I did check it this AM and it looks like they will arrive today.

They arrived last night.  I'm gonna drop the car off Tuesday to have him lengthen them for me and do an alignment.

I know this is dragging one up from about a year ago but how did it turn out and which lers did you end up installing?

Dynomax mustang gt tailpipes lengthened with dynomax super turbo lers.  It's quiet until you stand on it and then it just has a nice deep tone.

Honestly guys I have not had time to do much car-wise.  My job is so busy it's insane.  I work 6 days a week and have not even had time to wash my Tbird this spring!  Combine that with the fact that it seems as if it rains every freakin day and it does not leave much "car time". I've driven it only like 3 times...it's kinda sad really.

I need to get current pics and take some videos of the new exhaust!

Thread revival!  Actually have a day off for a change so I'm gonna get some pics of my exhaust setup and film some videos to show you all how it sounds (as soon as my video cam battery charges up).

Oh and beast50, I'm keeping the Pypes setup in case I want to reinstall down the road.

I'd like to see how the GT tail pipes look. I'm thinking of replacing the LX style tails on my Thunderbird with them.
