Description
Takeda 3" 304 Stainless Steel Axle-Back Exhaust System – Polished Tips | 2016–2018 Ford Focus RS 2.3L EcoBoost
Upgrade your 2016–2018 Ford Focus RS with the Takeda 3" 304 Stainless Steel Axle-Back Exhaust System by aFe POWER. Designed for dyno-proven performance, aggressive sound, and long-lasting durability, this axle-back system improves exhaust flow while adding a sleek, polished finish to your vehicle.
Constructed from mandrel-bent 3" to dual 2-1/2" 304 stainless steel tubing, this system outflows and outlasts factory exhaust components. The 14" x 6" high-flow muffler features a high-temperature metallic black powder coating to resist corrosion while delivering a smooth, tuned exhaust note. The integrated factory-style exhaust valve (uses factory motor, not included) allows you to adjust the exhaust tone for either a refined or aggressive sound.
Finished with dual 4-1/2" polished stainless steel clamp-on tips with a laser-etched Takeda logo, the system provides a custom, stylish look while offering adjustability for a perfect fit. For an even louder and more aggressive tone, an optional muffler delete pipe (P/N 49M00035) is available.
Installation requires cutting the factory exhaust system in front of the rear axle. Factory hangers are used to ensure a secure fit, and all necessary hardware is included for a hassle-free installation. Each system is 100% hand MIG welded for race-proven strength and long-term durability.
