KillJoy Posted October 3, 2007 Report Share Posted October 3, 2007 Ok, here's the situation. As of right now, there are only a few options for Marauder exhausts. None of them are very "easy". First, Long Tubes, then custom exhaust. Second, Shorties, then custom exhaust. Third, install 03/04 Cobra Manifolds, then bolt up a Cobra X/H Pipe (with an extension on the end). Fourth, completely custom off of the Stock Manifolds. I am looking for someone who could assist in the MFG process for replacing the stock Cat Pipes with a 2.5" Pipe w/ 1 High Flow Cat each. It must be bolt in, just like the stockers. This will make the install MUCH easier. Once a functional prototype is made, I will start dyno testing, and see IF there is a power increase to justify the investment. KillJoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Hal Posted October 3, 2007 Report Share Posted October 3, 2007 The Cobra manifolds flow really well, they'd probably be good for your car. Good luck though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mensan Posted October 4, 2007 Report Share Posted October 4, 2007 You are a fool if you modify your exhaust without doing long tubes (or at least quality mid-lengths). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V8 Beast Posted October 4, 2007 Report Share Posted October 4, 2007 I have flowmaster high flow cats sitting in my garage... but they are 3". Also, my car picked up 52rwhp from my longtubes and the y-pipe Lasota made for me. I say do the tubes and a bigger pulley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KillJoy Posted October 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2007 You are a fool if you modify your exhaust without doing long tubes (or at least quality mid-lengths). Sweet..... you going to give me the price difference to put long tubes on? My car isn't a Mustang. There are only 2 offerings for long tubes. BOTH are about $1500. I want them, but the cost, and install, are holding me back. :thumbup: KillJoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mensan Posted October 5, 2007 Report Share Posted October 5, 2007 I'm aware that your car is not a Mustang. I did your project five years ago. Four mods and your car runs low 12's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
