Manta 2.5in Dual Stainless Steel Full Performance Exhaust System with Performance Extractors/Headers, High-Flow Catalytic Converter & Quiet Sound Profile Muffler Assembly for Ford Falcon AU Series 5.0L Windsor V8 IRS Sedan & XR8 (1998-2002)

Maximize exhaust gas flow, low-end torque, and top-end horsepower while preserving cabin acoustic comfort with this premium Manta 2.5in dual stainless steel full performance exhaust system. Replacing the entire restrictive factory assembly directly from the engine cylinder heads to the rear tailpipes, it pairs tuned performance extractors (headers) with a high-flow catalytic converter and twin 2.5in mandrel-bent stainless steel piping routed through quiet performance mufflers. Engineered specifically for Independent Rear Suspension (IRS) equipped Ford Falcon AU 5.0L Windsor V8 sedan models (1998 to 2002, including XR8), it minimizes backpressure on high-output V8 engines while delivering a smooth, drone-free tone ideal for daily driving and highway touring.
