Exhaust

[Tagmanxx]

Hey i have a 97 3.8L and wanted to put new exhaust in it and wanted to dump it after the rear axle any pictures? suggestions? and what set up would i need to get a full exhaust from the headers back because im trying to do it for my senior project and am not sure what setup i should exactly have

you can just do a cat back exhaust.

Best sounding exhaust for a mostly stock 94-04 v6, is a dual flowmaster 40 series exhaust. have your exhaust shop make you a dual exhaust setup and if they can have them create an h-pipe right after the rear cats because that makes the mellow tone, making it sound great and keeping it away from the ricer rasp.

if by test pipe you mean a cat-less mid-pipe then, yes. Pypes performance makes cat-less x-pipes for v6's and Mac Performance makes cat-less h-pipes for v6's

the mac system is easier to install if you are doing it your self, it stands up better, and has a pretty good sound, the flowmaster system is pretty good too

so if i wanted to do a cat delete would that be the same thing as getting a mid pipe? because ive looked at those and they do not have cats on them. is the mid pipe directly connected to the headers?

^ yes they bolt to the factory headers, just make sure you are buying a V6 specific midpipe. midpipes made for GT's wont work.
