This may just be more trouble than its worth, but I want dual exhaust on my Zetec. Plain and simple.

Is there any company who makes one to fit the Zetec? Or do I have to go to the muffler shop and have one custom bent?
Or do I have no clue what I'm talking about and it's nothing to do with getting pipes bent at all? (very real possibility for me)

I've got 2 Flowmasters just dyin to get to work, but first I need my Y-Pipe.

get a used SVT system and replace the stock svt mufflers with your flowmaster ones

I thought the SVT system didn't fit with the Zetec...?

It does, just have to add a little bit of pipe.

Well here's also my problem. I'm a enthusiast....but I'm not the "do it yourself mechanic" type. Just don't have the resources or knowlege. If I got the SVT exhaust system would I be able to take it into, say, a simple repair center and have them install it? Or am I stuck having to find someone who can do this for me?

Any exhaust shop should be able to do it for you.

Ah, thank you

Post pics once you get it all set up!

y pipe on a 4 cyl?

or do you mean the split after the resonater?

Haha, here's where my ignorance kills me.

The answer, is I'm not sure. It'll probably have to be after the resonator, I would imagine, because the manifolds for the Zetec and the SVT Duratec are different, aren't they? I'm guessing they are.


I'll figure out what I can do, and I'll do it.

And I'll def. post pics when its done. By then I should have my debadging and knauberizing done. Might have some new rims, depends on how much I'll be paying for the exhaust.

oooh I can't wait
