it probably will make it a little louder. but...does SC have emissions checks? cant remember if they do or not. if not then ud still have to get a false O2 so the car doesnt drop a code and put the car in limp mode.


BTW where in SC do u live?

i forget the name(stang guys call them MILiminators) of it but its basically an o2 sensor that sends the ecu a correct signal to prevent any codes. i believe there is a way to wire in a resistor that will do the same thing.

myrtly beach, no shit. i went to coastal for a year and my mom lives in charleston.

if youre gonna do all that cutting, why not just get a high flow cat for the main cat?

or get bigger piping?

aftermarket resonator?

there are so many options that wouldnt require you to mess with the ECU

My old car sounded good with no cats, a glasspack, and a Magnaflow Straight thru muffler. If you don't have emissions checks, that's what I'd do.

i might just do what venom said to do. its a good idea and no i dont have emmisions checks in SC so i might just do it. now just to find who sells a high flow cat for a gen 3 o.0 and maybe and aftermarket res 0.o ive already got larger pipeing i forgot what the width is but it made my undercarage pipeing from \/\/\/- ( < what exhaust piping looked like before) to

/\/------ ( < now) lol bad pics but hey what can i say? i tryed! lol! but anyways with went from the curvy stock pipe , they cut it right down the middle and added a straight pipe to the flow master....


Where can i find a highflow cat , res for gen 3?
