off-road97Xplor · 09-26-2004, 08:00 PM

hey guys im in the proccess of modifying my explorer and dont no whether to get cheryybombs or flowmaster 40s. The only problem is i dont have to money to do a true duel exaust so i have to only do i single. since these are single in and out where do i buy a YPIPE? im looking for very mean good sound and maybe some horsepower gain. since i love the duel exhaust look is there any way i could make a fake duel exhaust. Feed back appreciated

Flowmaster 40 all the way. The exhaust shop will have a Y pipe to split your exhaust. And it's not a fake dual exhaust. It's just not true duals. Fake would be hanging another tip or pipe there and have nothing coming out of it.

If it's a V6... go with the 40

If it's a V8... go with the 40

I've heard that true duals actually rob torque on the V-6s. I vote flowmaster 40s because I think they sound better.

40's for sure

40s...... its a 6, doesnt need glaspacks or true duals... actually v6s need some backpressure to function properly, and glasspacks or true dual will not give any performance due to being too freeflowing
