Wow Novax those tips look great. I have a 02 3.0 also. Can you tell me what was involved in the install? Also DocMike if you decide to sell the tips you bought from Morristown let me know.

Thanks in advance.

Yes the flowmaster makes a verry different sound than a normal muffler

ok, for those with 3.0 that want the look of 4.6is exhaust. you can get the tips from morristown for $230 shipped. have your muffler shop cut the single exhaust outlet all the way leaves 1 inch to the muffler. fabricate Y tips and weld it to the muffler, the weld the 4.6is tips over it. never go weld the 4.6is tips directly over the single outlet, it just looks awful.

so nova, mine is 4.4, if i were to install 4.6 tips, what else do i need? Do i need to just remove the stock black tips and install the 4.6 one?

jayjay_dee 03-19-2008 12:57 PM

just in case you are doing this mod, i have a pair of those 4.6 tips brand new... bought it from morristown, supposedly for my cousin's X, be he totalled his so we never got the chance to install it... let me know...
