Hey! It's notacarguy here. As the confusing title suggests, I currently don't have an active exhaust, but I do want one! But as I'm not a car guy, I'd love to not look like an idiot when discussing this with dealerships/shops. So, I'll look like an idiot here instead:
1. Can I have Ford install their OEM active exhaust? And if so, how much would that cost, d'ya think? If I recall correctly, if you optioned with it, it was about $1600. I expect to pay at least that + installation fees, but I have no idea how much those fees would be. Any ballpark estimate would be nice.
2. If Ford can do that (I reckon they can), would they install quad tips too since that was the only way to get factory quads on an S650? Or would I keep my dual tips? I assume I'd keep dual tips since installing quads would require some cutting, but I'm not the brightest cookie in the toolbox, so I figured I'd ask.
3. Should I even go with Ford? Or should I get an aftermarket one? If so, any suggestions?
4. As far as aftermarket active exhausts go, I can't seem to wrap my head around how you'd control it. I know the OEM AE is through the screen. Would an aftermarket one be able to do that too? Or maybe it changes with drive mode? Can't find anything very specific online.
Thanks in advance and sorry if these questions make you question whether I should be able to drive a car or not.
