Let's play the "is this aftermarket" game?

[defdans]

So I just recently swapped my '15 EB for a '16 GT Vert. Since I bought it used from a non-ford dealer, they knew almost nothing about it. All they knew is that the previous owner took his after-market wheels and put the brand new stock wheels back on. They felt confident he hadn't done anything else to it.

However, I noticed it definitely has the Roush exhaust. Can anybody tell from these pics if these are the stock headers or identify the specifics of what I have? I know nothing about exhausts. Hard to get a decent photo, i can try again if necessary.

Yes you do. If you want more sound, replace resonator shown in first pic and install an x-pipe but do not remove cats. Removing cats will be way too loud and sound just bad, but that is just my opinion.

Looks like the stock resonator was cut and removed by the previous owner at some point. Those are aftermarket band clamps holding it all back together. I recommend getting it re-welded there as those clamps tend to leak out the side of that rectangular block. Your gas tank is right there...

Thanks, all!

Another solution to the aftermarket band clamps, if they leak, would be to remove them, wrap the exhaust pipe where the cut is with several layers of aluminum foil (the stuff you have in the kitchen works) and reinstall the clamps.
