Topic: does the new v-8 path have dual exhaust ? and if it does
Replies: 3

Clearance is a definite issue, whether it is a stock dual setup or custom, if you look under the rear of the path, the spare tire is offset to the driver side, and the existing tailpipe has minimal room so that it is...I think a dual setup is near impossible in the path, unless you had the pipes com...

Very nice! just watched the whole thing and I am jealous...I have the same color pathy so it is easy for me to dream.

Very thorough video documentary though, nice effort.

Your 0-60 is 5.5? that is impressive for our beastly boxes of metal.

Thanks!

Forum is in a little lull...so you fellas with the OME lift, after a few weeks what are your impressions? Have all the little issues been resolved?

Either of you had your rigs off-road yet? how's the flex, ride etc...?

actually the more i thought about it, that is what i was thinking too, replace the Y-pipe and tail pipe and leave the stock exhaust...that would eliminate that kink over the rear axle too...i am just curious what the sound will be if we remove that resonator...hope it doesnt get buzzy....

I like your style, i don't think i am going to go dual out, it would look cool but i think the performance and sound would suffer.

custom exhaust

I have seen the pictures of the stock exhaust, we know the Y-pipe is 1 major restriction and the other is the crimp over the rear cross-member. in an effort to piece together a custom exhaust i have broken it into stages. I do not want a loud buzzy system, what i do want is to free up the flow and a...

Thanks for the honest review, i have been hesitant for a while, i wish there were more options for us. I had a borla on my explorer and loved it, the quality of that was top-notch. In addition it seems pricing went up on gibson systems for the new year...

Man- that rear is jacked up! Like you said it hasnt settled, but thats a good amount of lift. Any chance we can see a full side shot of the whole vehicle? do you currently have a slight rake (with the back being higher?)

Thanks for keeping us up-to-date!

what you may be hearing is the ABLS, (antilock break limited slip) this will kick in (and the slip light will flash) when it senses wheel spin. ABLS is still active with VDC off, it sounds like a electronic grinding, and is basically the same sound as the ABS you would hear if you stopped quick. cou...

sheesh, you have some good patience though, most would try to rig up something, but you seem to have done your research. Hope the rest of the install goes ok, keep us posted. did you look into the rear at all yet?

Been "out" for quite a while, However, last time i talked to them they were still taking pre-orders, said they had about 12-15 sold. don't think they were shipping them at that point (mid-december) 5" is a little much for my need, but i'd love to see someone install this.
