I have been working on this car (89 Cougar XR7) for the last two years and hopefully will be driving it to the next Carlisle show (03). I have a exhaust questions for you guys. I would like to have the exhaust dump out in front of the rear tires. My thoughts are to run 2.25" down pipes into two mufflers then out into a Magnason resonator (longest available) then 3" back to behind the gas tank, split into two 2.25" and swing around to the front of the rear tires. All will be mandrel bent ss pipe. This car is not a daily driver, just for fun.
What do you think?
A little info on the engine. Complete rebuild and balanced. New Crane cam 208/208 duration and .509 lift. Ported and polished heads, 42 lb injectors, 255 lb fuel pump, 93 gas tank, hooder headers, underdrive pulleys, 10% overdrive supercharger pully, 76mm c&l MAF and a eec tuner (will buy program from Fred when complete).
Currently working on a new raised top (my design, and would send pictures for those who are interested), recoating rotors on a 94-95 supercharger. Magnum powers porting, 85mm inlet plenum and throttle body.
Thanks,
