What choices do us 5.0 guys have for side exhaust? I want new more than used. I plan on just ditching the side skirts, give it more of an 00R feel. Is that style available for us (2 pipes on each side)? Any way to mod a 4.6 exhaust to fit? I'm quite ignorant when it comes to this subject. ;)

Thanks guys

the 00r was one pipe with duel tips. The only thing i can think of is spintechmufflers.com has a side exit that is like you describe but not just a bolt on you would need a muffler shop to fit it up.

any kit that fits a 96-98 cobra (4.6 dohc) should also fit 94-95 GT's/Cobras from the cat back.

Roush
SVO/Borla

both are only going to be found used - if at all

I thought the factory 00R was borla... My brother is looking at the borla side exhuast for his '95 GT. CDC makes a side exity exhuast that looks pretty good. borla does. Ford SVO has a kit with skirts and all, but i think somebody mentioned it already, you have to find that used, OR ABCExclusive.com might still sell it.
Or you can buy your own muffer and fab it up yourself... there are a few different brands that have the inlet and outlet on the same side. a side exhuast to me doesn't seem very performance oriented, because of the bends in the piping... even though it was on the 00R, it just seems restrictive to me.

I have had side exhaust on mine for a while now.
1st-was one I had made up. I had some tips custom made by Stainless Works. I used IMCO racing mufflers on it. I thought the sound was OK, I hear it is raspy though.
2nd-I now have Borla with the SVO skirts. I like it, but it is less aggressive! It has a deeper tone to it though!
I want to add shorty headers and a offroad H-pipe ASAP. Good luck in your search!

The tip about 96-98 Cobras fitting 94-95 GT's is a great tip. I'll look for that now. Thanks for all the suggestions.
