Exhaust fitment question
Hello everyone.
I am in a bit of a time crunch to get an exhaust piece for my 2001 mustang gt. I purchased ceramic bbk shorty headers with a bassani mid pipe and would like to buy mufflers to tailpipes, but I need them ASAP. I have searched locally for 99-04 catback exhaust and no one has anything. Would it be possible to fit 05-09 exhaust onto my 01? Or any other year not 99-04? Any suggestions or advice would be great. Thanks. |

Thanks. +1 on American Muscle with a typicsl 2 day shipment. Otherwise go to an exhaust shop and have them fap up some pipes from the midpipe to the rear hangers right before the axle with turndowns just to get you by. Should be cheap and east for them to do. |
Thanks guys I appreciate the advice,
for anyone who cares or would like to add their two cents here is an update: My mechanic installed the shorty headers and the bassani x pipe to my car, but the x pipe doesn't fit up with my cars stock exhaust. Is this normal? What kind of exhaust will fit? |
Most mid-pipes should bolt to the stock catback.
|
Something has to be going on for a bassani ANYTHING not to fit lol. You don't pay that kind of money for bassani stuff not to fit..
how exactly is it not fitting? |
Every Bassani piece I have used fit like PERFECTLY and I am talking brackets for stuff I never thought they would even have. I am wondering if you have a part made for another ride.

*UPDATE*
Mechanic had looked at the x-pipe wrong (phew!). I purchased a bassani cat back to go along with the bassani catted x-pipe and the shorty ceramic bbk headers. I COULD NOT be more happy with the sound. I will try and post a video soon. Only problems I am having with the car is a small exhaust leak up by the headers (mechanic is going to check it out next week, he is my dads fleet mechanic and has several other cars to look at), and for some reason the transmission feels weird, like it is loosely in neutral when the shifter is on N. Could this be caused by the x pipe choking the shifter cable? Oh and like a lot of x pipes... I have a problem with it hanging too low, going over speed bumps with others in the car is quite the challenge. It has been a long 3 weeks with out my baby, so happy to have her back! |
