Side Exit Exhaust?

THEUNDERCOATER · Sep 19, 2016

i have long tube headers back to flowasters into typical tail section up over the rear end. Finding the exhaust rattling around quite a bit and it's annoying. Thoughts of kicking out the sides? I see you can buy a kit for 600$ any other options or things people have done??

thanks for input and ideas/feedback you guys are such a knowledge pool

I'd agree.

Why is the exhaust rattling? How are the hangers and rubber idolaters? Do the pipes imhit the control arms?

Thundercoater, I'd be curious to see what this "kit" is you speak of, I'm guessing you are not talking about side pipes but an exhaust exit forward of the rear tires?? I can't tell for sure but your sig pic looks like a GT and a side exit may be more work than it's worth with having to modify the skirts, would be easier on an LX, my $.02. BTW, where are you in Maine? I'm in Westbrook...

Haven't seen a side exit exhaust thats still available. Would be interested in checking it out

It will be cheaper to figure out why it's rattling.

It will also be easier on your ears and lungs.

Spintech offered a side exit kit. You really want it to dump behind the axle though. Open windows will all of the fumes in.

That's the kit I was referring to. Thanks for the 2cents

I can dig it with a saleen lip kit

2000xp8 · Sep 29, 2016

I think that's the old roush (I know it's not saleen) side exhaust, looked horrible in person on an lx.

I think he meant he likes it if you had a Saleen front lip in conjunction with those side skirts.

Yes you're correct, in conjunction with. Sits far too low by itself

hey man new to stang net but not to mustangs. I currently have a side exhaust setup on my notch. It consists of bbk longtubes going into a mack pro chamber x pipe and then race bullets and out below torque boxes with dual tips on each side. It is loud not to bad in car or with windows open it turns heads like you couldint imagine and gives the car a very unique sound. If interested I can maybe get you pics of the setup so you can see how it is done. Since im pulling it off to rebuild motor anyway.

I kinda like this idea (pic is from Majer racing body kits), I've seen somewhere? this same basic setup but exiting forward of the rear wheels.

The problem with that is now you have a saleen front, different side skirts and either nothing in the rear, a saleen rear valence or a GT bumper.
Lx's with no tailpipes just look wrong, the gt rear won't look right with the saleen front and side exhaust skirts and a saleen rear valence with no tailpipes just looks stupid since there are slots for it.

No matter how you slice it, it doesn't look light and it will be mismatched.

elarm1 · Sep 30, 2016

Its all a matter of opinion and you already know about opinions.... I love the styling of a stock lx or gt for that matter but some people like outlandish styles

Exhaust usually rattles because it wasn't installed correctly, I'm sure your tailpipes are whacking against your frame as it goes over the rear end, ask me how I know

Think overtime the car has been bottomed out and it's tweaked the exhaust a bit.
