Well, I had been wanting to do custom exhaust on my '96 Taurus Wagon for a while. It had dual exhaust from the factory, but it was just hankering to be modified, and I like to be different. So I decided to do it.
This is just a catback. Allow me to describe what I went with. I replaced the stock flex pipe with a new double braid flex pipe. The stock resonator I replaced with a 2 1/4" x 22" Yonaka resonator, which is straight through no louvers. Then we ran a new pipe 2 1/4" to the y-pipe part. The shop fabbed a new y-pipe and from there it splits into 2x 2 1/4" pipes. Those run into a pair of 2 1/4" offset/center 18" body WickedFlow Max series mufflers. Then it all gets round out with a pair of 2 1/4" WickedFlow Jaws tips that go through the custom bumper cutouts I did.
I was fairly picky about the way the shop did it, which is fine because the shop is picky about their work anyway. I had it done at JR's Custom Muffler in Orem, UT. I like their work, they do a good job and are reasonably priced. I supplied all the major components, they did the pipework and welding. They charged me $305 for all the work, took about 4 hours.
But anyway, here at the pictures. Vids will come later.
