Default exhaust plan

I want to put duals on my v6 manual .I called ninosport and they seem to have the best price . I've decided to go with the y pipe adapter and two over axle pipes with gt take off mufflers . This setup is a bolt on that I can do in my driveway with no welding required . I'm going to leave the car basically stock and don't want to lose any low end torque . Delivery price 279.95 for the adapter , pipes and hangers. Is E bay the best and cheapest place to get the gt mufflers?

ninosport has gt takeoffs for 89.95 shipped . Should I go for it or does anyone know if there's another place to get a better deal??

That is a decent price. Somtimes you can get used ones from the GT guys for $0 - $50 plus shipping. Supposedly the exhausts off the manuals sound better than the ones off the automatics. they are apperently different mufflers, with different #s, so you might want to see which you are buying. I got GT takeoffs (manual) from a local guy, and I like them.

I dontpersonally like the whole Y to Y thing. I have an H pipe, and did not notice a loss in TQ but YMMV

See I have been looking into this too. Ninosport sounds good, but I think I am going the all Ford Parts route.....using; GT Mufflers, GT Mid Pipes, GT Hangers and GT X pipes. Since I already have the mufflers, all I need to do is order the rest.

I went with the ninosport Y-pipe, with SLP Loudmouths, and I noticed a pretty big performance gain, plus a HELLUVA LOT LOUDER.

there is a guy on this forum that wanted to sell his GT Takeoffs with Chrome tips for $90.00.

Mufler place got my mid pipe for me ~90, the hangers are pricey 50-80 each (you need 2 of them) so it adds up...

What muffler place? I guess I could call around to some different shops and get a price. So far the price I have gotten is $84.77 but I don't think that included shipping. You can get Hangers from Pypes Performance for $22.95 EA + shipping.

I called ninosport and they said this y pipe setup almost acts as an x pipe because you unbolt the stock y pipe from the passenger side and then from there add the new inverted y adaptor .So I think that there is just a very small single section of pipe where it narrows down between the two Y's.At least that's the way it looks from the photo I saw of the setup. They also said I could probably do the whole job within 2 hours in my driveway and no welding.
