Default I need a new exhuast for the 2003 3.0L and I was wondering what are my best options?

Does a 2.7L exhuast fit the 3.0?
Any performance 3.0L exhuast out there?
If niether the 4.2 or 2.7 work cat-back then where can I get a used 3.0L exhuast?


THe only reason I ask if there are 2.7 or 4.2 exhuasts out there bc ppl with those cars get aftermarket ones but the 3.0 is not a car that gets modified much.


thanks guys

Default The 4.2 & 2.7 exhausts are both plug n' play. My question to you is why do you need a new...

exhaust so early in the life of the car?

I used the 5x8x14 ovals, side in center out. An 18" should also fit if you want it quieter
