Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Modifications Duratec Performance Exhaust plumbing Question

I finally got my stereo finished and need a new project. I'm going to do a dual exhaust. I found mufflers and I have the tools and if necessary, a welder. Does anybody make a pipe kit for the Duratec? I want to go straight from the manifold to the muffler without connecting the two sides, a true dual exhaust. I may do headers later on as well so I'm looking for a bolt-on application to the headers. I will be using high flow cats too (stupid conscience!) So the pipes have to stop at the cat and continue afterwards. Does anybody have a kit for this or am I looking at a custom shop to bend some 2.5" for me? Eventually I will be doing more mods but for now I'm concentrating on performance... any help or opinions are welcome!

there are alot of differnt setups you can go for. one guy just recently did his with a true dual setup with a x pipe, try looking around the forum recently for pics or how-to's. good luck

I am one of the first to have it on... Ok, the first... Check my mods page... Best and cheapest way to do it, is find a person that can bend piping and weld them... Follow the stock piping, but don't get too large of piping, or you'll lose velocity in the exhaust. My setup was from Terry Haines layout of the S/C Tour "Profile". Gonna change my H-pipe to an X-pipe soon.
