It will bolt-up right in place of the old unit. No need to replace anything else.

By the way Ford does not put a 2.25" exhaust on a stock mustang at the factory,it's only 2" pipes. I know this,because I replaced the stock pipes on my 93' and the stocks measured 2". Just thought you might like to know. If anyone disaggree's with this, just measure the end of a stock pipe and see.
