GT Take-off exhaust on a V6
Would a GT Take-off exhaust fit on a V6 coupe? I am talking about from the headers back to the mufflers. That would include the converters, h-pipe and mid-pipes and GT mufflers. Any thoughts? Could the h-pipe be modified to fit after the converters on the V6?

Yes, but the body shop or installer will have to do some custom fabbing. I did pretty much the same thing as u but got headers(not gt)too. The installer will need to switch the cats on ur car now with the ones on that system so u have the V6 cats and not the GT's. Other than that, all u need to do is some welding, clamps, and hangers and ur good. Should sound nice too. Good Luck!

but going through all that fabbing seems like overkill for neglible gain.

No, it's a good idea. Probably cheaper than any cat-back or self made system. My self made system even though I bought the over axels and h-pipe take off used, ran me $700(notincluding headers)aboutw/o install. This set-up off a GT, the guy will probably charge $300-$400. That's saving a couple hundread dollars after the fabbing. It's a good idea for a cheap dual set-up that sounds nice.

GT Take off is fine and cheaper, but the whole cats/headers thing doesn't need to be done. That was what I was getting at. Just start at the H/X and leave the original cats and headers in.
