Stock SVT Cat Back Exhaust Swap
Well, last week my wife flat out told me the bosal had to go(too loud)........I had a stock SVT exhaust laying around but was reluctant to put it on because of fear of power loss.......but to my surprise it actually pulls better, seems like it has a a little more down low(torquey) than the bosal did and carried high RPM's the same........it really puzzled my because they are both 2 1/2 inch exhaust........only problem I ran into was the SVT is a smidge shorter(because of the different rear bumper) and the tip rubs the bumper.........so right now her car has a complete SVT exhaust from header to tip(with offroad pipe)..........runs great and couldn't be happier with factory parts..........

After I posted this I 2x checked and the bosal is actually 2.25(my bad).........makes the SVT exhaust an even better bargin for a larger exhaust..........

Nice work! Curious as if the hangers lined up well as I've been questioned about this before many times.

All the brackets and mounts were in the same exact place.......there was some difficulties with the non SVT exhaust being a smidge too short with the SVT Header,Offroad Pipe, and Flex(we used all SVT stuff and notstuff modified for the zetec header swap), when I hooked up the SVT exhaust it fit perfect.....lol, the car is being dropped of to get painted tonight with an SVT Rear Bumper to be painted with it too........that was the last svt exhaust I had in stock
