Does dual exhaust void the warranty?
Alright so this is pretty weak I know, but I'm 18 and my parents still pay for my car so I can't do anything to 'potentially void my warranty'. I called up the dealership where I got it and nobody seemed to know if it would void the warranty. I have a single flowmaster american thunder on my car right now but it just doesn't seem right without duals. I know a lot of people have duals, did it void anyones warranty?

RE: Does dual exhaust void the warranty?
Duals will void your Exhaust System only, and anything else FORD can PROVE your aftermarket parts did damage too.
For example, if you hang an aftermarket muffler on crooked, too close to your rear bumper and melt your rear bumper? FORD won't cover the muffler or bumper.
Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act.....read up on it.

Ford sells a dual exhaust kit(M5230V6)just for the 2005+ V6 Mustang. If a Ford dealer installs it, it will be covered by the warranty. This is a great dual exhaust system.Looks and sounds real good! Plus dual don't usually void the warranty anyway.

Any dealership/anyone else who tells you that installing duals will void the general warrenty on your car is wrong, plain and simple.

Ok thanks guys, one other problem though. What about the gas line being right next to where the other pipe will go? That was another reason my parents are against it.
