Default Exhaust Question

I had a 2001 GTP that one of the more common mods was to have the "u-bend" taken out of the stock exhaust and replaced with straight pipe.

Is there anything like that on the '06 V6? I have the MRT aero-turbine axle back, C&L CAI & XCal2 tune from Evolution.

Any other easy bolt ons or other mods?

I did tune it for 91 octane (highest avail in Denver) and my fuel milage is actually the same as it was for the 87 tune. Maybe I'm a bit lead footed to here the exhaust and shifting?

Yes, I know that much. I was asking if there is anything similar on the Mustangs. I guess we did call it the u-bend on the GTP.

Thanks for the awesome input though!

Next I would probably suggest Gears and T-lock and if you dont have a major sound system or plan on doing one than get the PHP alternater pulley.
