Anybody out there running 3" exhaust on their 3.0's? I've been seeing this White Ranger in traffic and was certain it had a V8 swap from the sweet sound that was coming from those chrome tips. The truck really scoots too, as it was hard to catch up to him in my DD Toyota Crapolla. So after several attempts to flag him down, I finally got him this morning. I could see Recaro buckets through the back glass, furthering my suspicion of a V8. After me drooling over his truck ( we are at a red light btw) I asked him if he did the swap. He looked SOOO confused
He said it's a V6.
Me - "Oh 4.0 Huh?"
him - No 3.0.
Me - man that thing sounds like a V8
him - It's because of the 3" exhaust.
Me - Well done.
Sometime in there he said his uncle had a couple of FOX bodies and he wanted to get one of those motors eventually.
Light turned green and he rolled away
2wd White Single cab GenII Ranger with Black Mustang wheels (the ones that look like the "old" Craigar style). Long chrome tips that bend out behind the rear wheels. everything was very clean and he drives the piss out of it everyday.
