That's some mighty fine fab work. The no-gas fluxcore splatter adds character. Fluxcore till I die! O0

there is a lot less room with flipped shortie headers than some log manifold...

it has to go down, under the alt, under the header, sqeeze between the frame and header and motor mount, then turn down into the exhaust thats already there...

Cough..............Bull.....................Cough....Cough.........----..............Cough

There's a lot less room inside the confines of a SN95 Stang......................

That's full 3" from the turbos to the bell housing, through a pair of cats, then 2.5" to the bumper. It's now being changed to 3" from the turbos all the way to the rear bumper :y

Also, say you're joking about the flow masters. Flow Masters (or any chambered muffler) have no place on any turbo car! Hell, mufflers are not needed at all.

Unfortunately Alex, we're not all from Texas where everything and anything is legal!!! I'd probably make it a whole 5 minutes with no muffler before I am pulled over, haha.

if mine was setupi like yours it would be easier...

i can run no mufflers if i want. and i could care less about a extra couple of horses, i want it to be quieter and not sound liek ass (open downpipes)

and the way mine is setup, 3" pipe would not fit, if it fit it would be up against the motor mount and up against the header...

If I was at home (I'm in Cali) I would be able to access the photos of my car when I had those same Chrysler turbos that you have, set up in the same way as yours.................and show you 3" from the turbos. Maybe you might just need to look into re-doing your set-up. There are a lot more people making headers for 302 mustangs now ( B&G will do a set for under $350 ) and your set-up would be a lot cleaner with more function and a better fit.

Don't know what turbo Mustang you've heard with full tail pipes and no mufflers...............But ass is not the sound. It's actually quieter then stock and definetly quiter then ANY flowmaster combo on a Mustang!


Hell, just found the video of my car and a friend of mines (had it on my laptop luckily). His car is NA with a pair of shorty headers, H-pipe and 3 chamber Flow masters..............My car, NO CATS, No MUFFLERS, 2 t3/t4 turbos, 3" to 2.5" out to the rear bumper.
Watch the video and tell me that my car sounds like ass (hell you can't hear it running!!!)
