Yeah, mine seems particularly peppy. Was looking underneath yesterday and see the exhaust is much modified. Has what appear to be two high flow cats directly attached to the manifolds. Then three inch pipe running straight back from the cats into a large gracefully shaped Y under the passenger seat area. Then a three inch pipe running to the back and arcing gracefully over the axle, to a three inch T. Then two three inch pipes going around and welded to the axle.
I know both my Lightning and Ranger had or have four cats. The Ranger still does, with an o2 behind the last cat. The Lightning, the original owner had the aft two cats and o2 deleted. The Mustang only has two, so I am assuming that the back two and the o2 we're also deleted. And I am thinking that three inch pipe in the exhaust is plenty sufficient for a 240 cubic inch V-6. So the only thing I am going to do exhaust wise is have the two three inch trips replaced with four inch tips. It's got a really nice growl to it, I just can't appreciate it much until I put in my hearing aid. LMAO!!
