The X-Pipe

[The Great]

I noticed that alot of you have your mods listed under your name and I would like to know what is the purpose of an X-Pipe and how much does it usually run??

X-pipe evens out the escape gas (exhaust) pressure from both sides. Usually runs about 145 miles an hour.

Oh ok that's sounds like a must have. Thanks CBT, do you know much they usually cost??

If you plan on keeping the stock exhaust manifolds it will need to be custom, or get one for a 99~04 mustang and chop it up. There alot of examples of how to's in the search area

So there can be a X-Pipe built from the stock pipes already there but more like cut and paste??

The stock MM down pipes start at 2-1/2" then go down to 1-7/8". The whole point of doing this is to get rid of the restriction. An X/H pipe will be 2-1/2" start to finish. So I would advise you not to try to reuse the stock section. From the mufflers back the pipes are 2-1/4" so it's fine

[The Great]

So the muffler on down would have to be another set of pipes??

[musclemerc]

NO! You missed my point... Its the mufflers forward. The mufflers back will be fine.

Oooooooooohhhhhh now I understand. Thanks Musclemerc.
