No drone in 6th when cruising.Anyone else done this mod yet? Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/65488-center-muffler-removal/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been there done that and learnt my lesson, don't waste your time. Buy a bigger full exhaust system if you want a nicer sound, but remember it's a 6, don't try to impress pedestrians with that way it sounds, impress them with the way it GOES.
