Default Ordering Off-Road Xpipe, Have 1 Question?

Ordering a Pypes Off-Road Xpipe with MIL Eliminators. My question is, do I need the o2 extensions? My car is a 2004 GT, but since I'm adding the eliminators, do I need the extensions? Thanks guys.

Negative! I have the same setup, pypes x-pipe and MIL's. No need for extensions unless your running longtubes.

Oh forgot to add if you have a tuner you dont even need the MIL's because the tuner can turn the rear o2 sensors off. Just an FYI. If you planned on buying a tuner its a good excuse to get one now.

i think you will need the extension. i bough a used o/r x-pipe from a guy with a 04 gt and he needed ext so he gave them to me. i didnt need them, i think only the 04 stangs need them.

And for the love of Christ make sure you get the header sleeve and install it in the drivers side downpipe, or your manifold/xpipe connection will leak ALLOT.

This leak will also be in front of the first o2 sensor.....very bad.

I found out the hard way.

as others have said, the 2004 models need O2 extensions, and if you're not getting a tuner then get MIL eliminators or you can make them.
