"Yawn" = the debate between the 4 cyl. engines and the V-8 engines.It's a pointless conversation.They both have benefits and disadvantages.6 of one,half a dozen of the other.I love my V-8,but,I also have a deep respect for the turbo 4's around here.The Turbo Coupes (and XR-7's) have proven to be great all around performance cars,as do the modded V-8's.A stock 5.0 car,in my own opinion,can't hold a candle to the Turbo Coupes for example.They can REALLY surprise a person who doesn't know any better.The debate will always linger,but there's no point in getting into it here.We all are here for the cars,whether it's a 4,6,or 8.We (Fox Cat and Bird owners) aren't nearly as large a group as the Stang guys,so we have learned to really respect these cars for what they are,and what they can be with very little work....even more with a lot of work and the right parts.

ok, i think this is what i can come up with, 3"turbo back, highflow cat, one flowmaster super 40, then split into 2.5 duals with 3" wide 12" long stainless tips cut at an angle.
do you think that would flow pretty well considering i have a racing header and T5 turbo?

dont buy flowmaster(restrictive overpriced junk)  I run twin magnaflows on my turbocoupe to dual 2 1/2" pipes and my car makes 400hp easy and it has no problems and is quiet.  Sounds like a stock 5.0 instead of a cammed out 4 cylinder.  I went for sleeper status on my car, rofl.

BTW: what is a T5 turbo??
