side exhaust on notchback? opinions?

04-05-2001, 04:12 PM

This guy at my school has pipes coming out from the stock H-pipe location and they look kinda like the late 60's Dodge Challanger type. It looked pretty subtle and very cool. It's not the typical side exhaust, it doesn't have any extreme bends and he has glasspacks (yuck) but it's a pretty good flowing system without being tacky and it's not noticable if you're not looking for it because the pipes aren't chrome or anything. I'd say go for it and have a custom setup rather than the later style 'stang bolt on type with the ground effects. although to do this idea, you'd have to get rid either the cats and run round mufflers or use just cats and run pipes off of them it looked pretty cool on this guy's car and he had NO interferance problems whatsoever. good luck.
