Default IRS and GT Catback

Hey Guys, I want to get an LM1 or LM2 catback system for my 03 GT but I also am trying to get an 03+ Cobra to swap IRS for my solid axle - will I have compatibility issues? Should I wait to do the swap and then get cobra exhaust?
Thanks,
C

if your gonna get the irs , your gonna have to run the cobra catback.. IF you get the GT catback then your gonna have to reroute it after you swap.

Cool, thanks Aereon, so I should swap the rear ends and the exhausts? IOW the cobra will need the GT exhaust when it gets the solid axle?

Both cars will have to go to the others exhaust. The cobra IRS exhaust runs underneath the IRS, while the stick axle stuff runs over the top of the axle. you cannot run one with the other.

If both of you have an aftermarket exhaust though, its just as easy as swapping them out
