Pypes Exhaust

[03slobra]

This was a "Bolt in catback" system,has anyone on here ever had or heard these mufflers on a mustang,if so did they sound terrible?Because mine do,plus the tailpipes do not fit properly,any info would be appreciated!!!!:banghead::banghead: I will post pics of this mess later..

The Pypes Violators sounded pretty mean on a 5.0, but i think they sound like shit on a 4.6

Since I can never keep up with what you own :jester: What did you install these on?

Personally I have always stayed away because they were a 'cheap' exhaust setup

i know its not the catback but i had the o/r x-pipe on my silver gt it fit fairly well for the price drivers side tube was maybe a 1/4 in longer than the stock h that was my only complaint

I've got a set of their starter tubes on the vert and they were fine.


. . . of course, there's not a whole lot you can mess up on an 18" piece of slightly bent pipe. :D

I've never considered them "cheap" A guy I work with has a Pypes catback on his new challenger and it sounds good but he still has cats on the car so that will make a difference and they have different series that range from kinda loud to really loud. I think I might go with x-pipe and macs on the firebird.

The Pypes Violators sounded pretty mean on a 5.0, but i think they sound like shit on a 4.6These are on a stock 5.0.These sound like a "Glasspack full of water",so I turned them around backwards and still sounds the same.I've never heard a muffler sound this terrible,and I've had Mac,Flowmaster,Flowtech and magnaflow mufflers.

I've read on the corral,and a couple of other sites, of quite a few people having fitment issues with them on Foxes.

Here are some pics of this:dump:I just sent Pypes corp. a bunch of pics at their request so we'll see what happens...

[coupe]

Yea... looks a little bit off to me too. Maybe they used a Lincoln Mark7 as a "jig" :shrug: :D

Yep the pre-muffler cat kit that I bought to put on the '93 cobra did not fit at all. I had to cut and fit new piping just to make up the 12" section that they cut to short......I do not think their kits are anywhere near as good as borla, magnaflow, bbk, mac etc. etc......even Summit Racing's kit for foxes is better than their stuff.

I was not very impressed with their craftsmanship.
I will not buy their exhaust items again.

:banghead:I just got a call from the guy i sent the pics to and he said "Your system is to far back and your hangers on the car are on backwards" so apparently I know nothing about mustangs he (pypes guy) is god and I was a mistake brought onto this earth.I think I will go to penn. and weld this entire kit on the outside of his 93 honda and see how he likes the great fitting,bolt on LOL exhaust kit.:jester:

Like coupe stated above they used an '87 Lincoln Mark 7 as a jig....:lol:

On mine I even set the stock h-pipe back up in the car to make sure that I had not lost my mind when trying to make their crap fit. I was lucky enough to have a chop saw and welding machines so that I could fix mine.

You will probably just have to take it to a muffler shop and have it fixed as they will probably not do anything about it anyway.
