 : Hi all. My exhaust is stuffed from the cat back, on my ED Falcon. Is there any benefit throwing on an 2 1'2 inch exhaust if you dont want to change the cat from the standard one? |

You shouldn't have to change the cat, unless it is stuffed as well. Ford release there cars with a 7ltr capacity cat (pity the don't release the motor too). But by all means change it from the cat back, I did mine on friday with a 2 1/2 inch red back exhaust and it sounds awesome.

Yeah it has the muffler (center) and the resinator (end muffler) and thats all. Sounds tuff. Has a good rumble at idle, and really barks between 2000 to 3000 rpm. I went to Werribee Exhausts to get it done. He is a good bloke I would recomend him to anyone. Paid $350 fully installed. Not the cheapest but you get what you pay for too.

Cat Back exhaust system are pretty cheap for the falcons might a well get a..2 1/2inch as it flows better.

Hi guys I ended up getting a 2 1/2 inch system from the cat back with a lukey sports muffler then straight out from there. No resignator. Sounds excellent!
