Adding an exhaust system to your Fox Body can improve the sound of your Mustang while also putting down more horsepower and torque on the dyno. LMR.com offers headers, H-pipes, X-pipes, Catbacks, Tailpipes, mufflers, and exhaust accessories to help put the finishing touches on your Fox!
Headers are a big part of your exhaust upgrade and can improve the air flow of your exhaust. There are two types of headers; shorty headers and long tube headers. They both provide different performance uses and what sets them apart is the length of the tubes that merge into a single pipe. Because of this, it affects back pressure in a different way. Long tube headers are better for preventing back pressure which gives an added amount of horsepower because of better oxygen intake. Long tube headers perform better in the mid to high RPM range and shorty headers perform better in the low RPM range. Headers can be found in ceramic, chrome, and stainless steel options for your Mustang GT and Mustang LX Fox Bodies.
Just like headers, there are two popular types of performance style exhausts; H-pipes and X-pipes and both serve different performance purposes. The X-Pipe creates a higher pitch sound because of the way the pipe allows the exhaust to flow freely through the pipe. The higher the RPMs are. The smoother the flow of the exhaust is which allows your car to operate at its peak level with this exhaust. The H-pipe gains its maximum performance use at low RPMs and gives your car a low deep tone like a true muscle car. Mid-pipes are usually found in aluminized or stainless steel options.
Catback exhausts are simple power modification adders that help to free up exhaust gas flow and reduce back pressure at the manifold. They are usually larger than your stock pipes and have mandrel bent piping rather than traditional piping. This helps to allow your exhaust to flow freely and expel gasses more efficiently. Unlike axle back exhaust systems found on newer Mustangs, a cat-back exhaust system replaces everything from the mid-pipe to the tailpipes. Choose from a wide variety of exhaust setups including the popular Flowmaster American Thunder Cat Back exhaust kit.
Adding an aftermarket muffler to your exhaust can have a huge effect on the way your Fox sounds. From extremely loud to mildly loud or opposite, whatever you prefer, LMR has an exhaust for you.
