Unlock the full potential of your Ford Explorer ST or Lincoln Aviator 3.0L EcoBoost with MBRP's Cat-Back Exhaust System. Constructed from heavy-duty aluminized steel for durability and value, this cat-back exhaust delivers the performance, refined sound, and premium appearance enthusiasts demand. This exhaust is designed to deliver a refined, aggressive exhaust note while minimizing unwanted drone through MBRP's TORQ (Tuned Out Resonance Quieting) Technology. The system features CNC-precision-bent tubing that maintains a consistent 3-inch pipe diameter throughout the exhaust system, along with two high-flow mufflers and dual TORQ Helmholtz resonators. Testing has shown flow improvements of up to 86% over the factory exhaust system, allowing the twin-turbocharged 3.0L EcoBoost to breathe more efficiently for improved performance, throttle response, and driving enjoyment. The bold, commanding sound profile perfectly complements the high-performance character of the Explorer ST and Lincoln Aviator. Installation is straightforward thanks to the bolt-on design that utilizes factory mounting points and OEM hanger locations. This system also integrates upgraded flex couplers that replace the factory units, addressing a common failure point in the OEM design for added durability and peace of mind. Completing the system are four 4-inch OD polished exhaust tips, delivering a clean, premium appearance that complements the athletic styling of the Explorer ST and Lincoln Aviator. Built to perform.
