Another resonator delete ?
Two questions regarding resonator deletes on a 2011 GT. What is the diameter of the exhaust midpipe and what stainless alloy does Ford use for the exhaust system? TIA

Pretty sure it's 2 3/4" and they use just a regular steel, nothing special, it still rusts just fine haha

Thanks for the reply GrabberBlue, I thought that I had read somewhere on one of the forums, that the complete exhaust system was stainless.

Complete exhaust system is stainless, but it's 409 stainless, it doesn't "rust" but it does discolor.

On the 2011 and up the stock system is stainless steel. Not a great grade of stainless, but its stainless. I'm Not sure of the other years

Thanks to everyone who responded. The 409 stainless sounds right to my failing memory.
