Another Exhaust Question???
I went to another meneike today to see if i could get a quote for my exhaust. I want true dual flowmaster 40 series with an h pipe.
This is what he wants to do:
1.He wants to order pre bent pipes instead of bending them himself.
2. Another option is to leave the factory pipe on the right side and get the pre bent one for the left.
Should I go ahead with this or find someone to change out the whole thing?
Pros and cons Anyone?

RE: Another Exhaust Question???
Ordering pre bent pipes is going to be expensive. The pre bent pipes, if they are directly from ford, will be made of a higher quality metal than what Meineke uses. When I went to Meineke in SC a few weeks ago, I was told that he didn't want to custom bend pipes because the quality of their pipes are not very good. He recomended that I go buy "GT takoff exhaust" and allow him to weld it all together. By taking the h-pipe and drivers side mid pipe off of the 2005 GT, you have a bolt on duel system for your V6 that will sound awesome. Where meineke welds these pipes on, you will eventually get rust on the pipes, and have to replace them. "true duel exhaust" does not have any type of connection between the left and right side pipes. So having true duel exhaust with a h-pipe is not really possible. The pros of having an h-pipe are that you may pick up 1-2 horsepower. The cons of true duels (without any type of connection) is that you may lose a minimal amount of horsepower. I have heard many good videos of V6's with flowmaster 40's. Look for the video of Noir's (He had flowmaster 40's true duels, but he switched to flowmaster 40's with an h-pipe. Also gt takeoff mufflers or Flowmaster American Thunder mufflers are both good choices also. If you have anymore questions please pm me.
