Recently under took a small project. Change out the exhaust on my 1991 Ford Explorer, from the Flange in front of the Cat backwards (no emissions here). I ordered some parts from Summit Racing and went to work.

ONLY SPENT $80 !!!!
bringing system up to 2.5 inch, simple summit brand cherry bomb $21 and a Thrush low back-pressure muffler $29 and straight pipe and turn down tip

This is what came out of the rig and the hardest part :icon_surprised:

Here is the front cat cut in pieces, the flange is oval so can't be used directly.

then two pieces welded back together :icon_welder:

then we have newly created piece combined with cherry bomb, the pip connecting the two cats was 2.5 already to go :icon_thumby:

this system just goes straight back and dumps down before the axle. Being a Explorer (station-wagon) a project for another day is to go over the axle and out in stock location. this would work great for a pick up though.

Ended up just a hair louder than I wanted, BUT SOUNDS GREAT :icon_hornsup:

Just a warning, moderators don't take to kindly to removing the catalytic converters. But for $80, can't beat that with a stick.
