I purchased the Ford Performance Exhaust from Mountune and this is the installation by Ford. Enjoy! Ford Performance Catback exhaust

The easiest way to install this i found was this... Removing the stock exhaust, drop the stock pipe from the down pipe first and remove the front exh. mount. with the exhaust hanging down its much easier to cut and can be cut in one piece. When putting the new exhaust in, Start at the back of the car assembling the exhaust as you go and insert it in to the hangers, dont tighten the clamps until after you have the downpipe bolts tightened. Once the downpipe is tightened down, go back and adjust the position of the pipe until its up in place and has plenty of clearance around the suspension components and heat shields, then tighten the clamps.. front clamp first.. then rear clamp. Also that ford tech may have cracked Geeb's downpipe flange when tightening with the impact. The directions say this must be hand tightened only. And I tightened it in 2 steps... alternating between the bolts.. Install went smooth with no problems.. Total time to install was about 45 minutes.

@Gjeebs7 жыл бұрын
I would highly recommend going with Mountune because their product support is great. I am doing more mods (3 fairly soon) that don't include a tune but I think they are necessary before a tune. If I do a tune it will be the full MP275 tune. I love that it still keeps your car under warranty.

I have a 2018 focus ST. Can I run a catback exhaust, a BOV, and an intake on the car with just the stock tune? I just want all of the noises, but I am okay with having stock power. Is this bad for the reliability of the car? What are the cons to doing this? I would love to hear your input.

Nope that would be perfectly fine. You will increase throttle response and get better acoustics. All good

Just a little background on my question, I used to have a blue 2004 subaru wrx wagon. I have a few videos on my channel with that car in case you wanted to check it out. With subarus you need a tune for literally everything haha. That's why I asked.
@armandosoto92446 жыл бұрын
I have a question about the hangers...the CJ pony parts site mentions that you need to get a Cobb hangers kit because Ford designed the 2015 exhaust to use 4 hangers but only comes with 3, . then on your video around min 8:42 the guy says something like "thats where the other hanger needs to be " but there is no hanger so my questions is , did you leave that section without the 4th hanger? did you get an extra hanger? is it true that the OEM only came with 3? .. great channel BTW I already subscribed. Thanks
@Gjeebs6 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the sub! Also from what I remember there were only 2 hangers by the muffler. I could be remembering incorrectly but anyway yes there is one area right now where there is no hanger and i need one. I have the mountune hangers now and will be making a video putting those on very soon. I will have a more clear answer then.

You're supposed to be able to make one cut and get the whole exhaust out that's what they did when they took my stock one out and what's up with your heat shield being all mangled? Sounds good and thx for posting up the video I'm guessing ford techs don't do aftermarket stuff that often lol
