I just order a 06. Your rear bumper, is it stock, kit or the GT bumper? I noticed you have the second slot for the dual exhaust. I would appreciate if you can help me out as I want to do dual exhaust when the car arrives.

Thanks,

Rich Ornellas

awesome... now i have to wait for my warantee to expire... Ugh
If you just go ahead and void your warranty, hasn't it EXPIRED? [sm=crossbonesgif.gif]
Watcha waiting on? hehehe

I went ahead with the dual exhaust and the CAI/tune. I can "undo" the CAI/tune if I need to, and I don't expect the exhaust to become an issue with the warranty.

Famous last words, eh? hehe

The V6 sound clip on the magnaflow web site is for a single exhaust. I was really turned off by that too. I got dual Magnaflows and it sounds nothing like that.

is it deep and throaty... like the GT... or is it a bit ricey at times like others have been saying? and did you get cat-backs/axle-backs/ or just a muffler.. and dual i hope...? also, where did you get the black out dash kit for your car? (saw the pics on your site... or at least i think its your site...)

You wont void your warranty putting on an exhaust. Obviously Ford will not warranty your exhaust anymore, but the only way they will not cover a problem is if they can prove your exhaust (or any mod you do for that matter) caused the problem. Many of us have a tuner as well. I use the XCAL2. This is a custom tune but also stores the original program, which you can "return to stock" before you bring it to the dealership. They cant even tell you ever flashed your computer.

I have sound clips on my web site... http://www.burdweiser.com . My upload speed sucks though (so give it time). I'm planning on doing some side by side driving video clips this weekend so everyone can get a better idea of what it sounds like on the road. They sound nothing like the sound clip on the Magnaflow web site, they only have a sound clip on a single exhaust. Mine are dual with the Y pipe, I will eventually get the X pipe. I did notice a little boost in performance! The sound is defiantly not ricey, but is deep and throaty. The more you break them in, the better they sound. They sounded great right after the install, but they sound even better now that I've had them on for a few weeks.
