Lets discuss exhaust!

Alright, had my car for a couple of weeks, love it, but it definitely needs to be a little louder (coming from a 600hp mustang).

Now I'm eventually going to get LT headers, but want to hold off till I get "bored" or the car first (I get bored of my cars very quick, then do something to it which extends the excitement temporarily, although I can get everything done at once, I'm going to do it one step at a time).

So, since I'm gonna get LT headers, for right now, I'm thinking about just getting an MBH X-Pipe to make it a little louder, now will the pipe bolt right in as we speak? When I do get the LT headers, will I need to change the X-pipe? What does a "resonator" delete consist of? If their a kit I can purchase for that delete?

Thanks guys!

The MBH LTH's are a complete bolt on setup, no cutting or welding involved.

The MBH X pipe will consist of one cut on the drivers side exhaust but cannot be used in conjunction with the MBH LTH's, as the MBH X pipe is the same diameter as the OEM exhaust.
However, when buying the headers, MBH has an option to go with a 3" X pipe or straight pipe option to be used specifically with their LTH's.

A resonator delete consists of cutting off the resonator and welding 2 straight pipes. Unfortunately MBH does not sell any resonator delete kits but its a VERY easy and straight forward procedure.

Thanks for the good info!!

Does removing the resonator throw any codes?
