I am in the process of getting a mandrel bent exhaust made for my '95 manual transmission SC. The system will include a resonator and Flowmaster mufflers. I will have more details in the next week or two but I would like to know if anyone here would be interested in this item. If interest is great enough the fabricator said there would be a price break at 10 and then again at 50. I don't have a price right now but the entire system would be less than $700 plus shipping from the West Coast.

Details about what sort of cat forward mounting issues, what this system will bolt up to, will be forthcoming. In general, though, please indicate whether or not you'd be interested in a system like this.

Thanks for your time.

I'd be more interested in a dual 2.5- single 3.5- dual 2.5

Being new to Thunderbird SCs, why the 3.5 center section, resonator?

Just curious?

Seems to be the perferred system for sound and flow. Dual 2.5" into a Magaflow resontor with a 3.5" outlet past the gas tank, to a y pipe to dual 2.5" with Magnaflow mufflers.

Stainless or aluminized?

I would hope for that price it would be stainless.

I believe it's for stainless. I'll have more info later this week.

Like I said above, the price will be LOWER than $700 probably $600 or less. I'll know more next week.

I am interested in a catless system with downtubes. I need a dual 2.5" system. So, your original post interests me. I plan to reuse my 2.5" mufflers to help offset the increased cost (since I am looking to get a catless system including downtubes). In case they ask, this is going on my off road racing SC. ;)

What type of resonator will you be using, straight thru, crossover, etc..?

Keep in mind the 93-95 exhaust will be different then the earlier models...GAs tank and brake system wise..Unsure if 93 manifolds are same but someone will chime in for sure

Im using 2.5 dual all dynomax Ultraflow with metalllic core cats...With headers sounds great

I'm using stock manifolds, SCP downpipes, custom 2.25" x-pipe exhaust with Flowmaster Super 44s. When it only had Dynomax mufflers the system didn't sound too bad but nothing fancy, however with the Super 44's it sounds amazing.

Just saying, Super 44s are the way to go for sound if you don't mind some volume. :D

I want to say that the fuel tank changed for the '92 model year, and the manifolds changed for the '93 model year. It's pretty early in the morning though, so my memory is a little fuzzy. :)

Manifolds changed for 94-95, all 89-93's are the same.
