I currently have a v6 with an xpipe and roush axle backs, and really want to do a long tube install. but i am wondering, will i need to buy or custom fab a new downpipe? id love to do it myself but im not much of a mechanic minus bolt ons.

PS. anyone heard it in person with xpipe and axlebacks with long tubes?
thanks!

I'm not sure on what your asking. When i bought my BBK long tubes i had a choice to buy the matching shorty x pipe. With catts or without, i bought the catted shorty x pipe to help cut down on rasp. Either way, your Roush axle backs are going to be a lot louder than they are now.

I see you have a 2016 but they should be pretty much the same. Go to the BBK web site and you should see the shorty x pipe (catted or off road) that goes with the long tube headers.

Update, ive contacted bbk about the NEW longtubes for 15-17 year v6s. They told me that if you want to get bbk longtubes, you MUST install a bbk h pipe(xpipe has not been released yet), otherwise the lontubes will not work. you may be able to jerry rig it yourself tho with some custom piping
