True Dual Exhaust?

[silverh20]

My 2000 continental has catback exhaust that goes from one pipe from the cat to a Y-pipe to the two mufflers. Is it possible to convert or replace the exhaust so it is a true duel exhuast setup? Thanks.

I'm pretty sure there is no way to have a true duel exhaust on the later model lincoln continentals. I had to have the catylitic converters replaced recently and asked the muffler shop if it was really necessary for the car to have three cats, one resinator and two mufflers. He said it is factory tuned like that and that any modification would cause driveability problems and that the car wouldn't run right.

I tried to have him do what you are talking about, and he said it could be done, but you would be risking the car running to its full potential. I guess Ford has it set up that way because it is tuned and runs to its full potential that way believe it or not!

Not to mention, there aren't many places these days that are willing to deviate from stock to custom on a vehicle like that. Sorry I don't have any better news, but I already tried.

welli when to a custom shop and i found out
and checked around agen
you can do this if you want as long as the converters stay where they are you can change fron the converters back if you wants and it will be ok
on my 95 continental i want to do it couse of that dam transaxle that should be a a Taruse porshing a heavy continetal
well i got a shit kit for 50 dollars on the internet got a shop that gona put it in
im going with the true dual from the duasi dual
and then im having
SCT buil me a chip the car should get up tot a 310 HP after that i was told i can get a blower for it also
i saw one on a 32v V8 on Tarus SHo wbeside they just relocated the batter and did something els minore to firt the blowwer in there
after that i can expect 360hp or about about i miss my Mark III i had
but hey i can turn this continental out just as good
