I like it, make me want a bigger intercooler though It also has different tips now to fill the hole a bit better... and no muffler in the rear, just straight through pipes.

Ash1 Member 6 Member For: 15y 5m 4d Posted 14/06/09 09:57 AM Share Posted 14/06/09 09:57 AM XA-MONT,Is there any chance that you may be able to post up a sound clip of your exhaust as it sounds now without the rear muffler?I am looking forward to picking my ute up in the next week which is almost identical to yours, and an exhaust mod to get more sound from the exhaust is first on the list. Also have you had any issues with droning or anything similar after replacing the rear muffler with straight through pipes?Has there been any warranty implications by your dealer at all?CheersAsh.

(nothing like the drone the XB gets at 100... which is bad enough to make me go 120 )Dont know what ford will think of it, havent had it in there yet since its been done.I assume they wont mind as long as I dont try to claim an exhaust related warranty issue.

Ash1 Member 6 Member For: 15y 5m 4d Posted 15/06/09 01:12 PM Share Posted 15/06/09 01:12 PM XA-MONT,Sounds the good mate, thanks for getting a clip! I am really looking forward to getting my ute. Not sure what sort of visual mods I am going to carry out, except for, a dark tint, rear section of the exhaust and swapping the 19" rims for a set of factory 18"s but I think that will be about it.Cheers,Ash.
