I actually have a '95 (purchased April 13, 1995), that was built
the last Friday before XMAS!! (no wonder the speedo gear was for a 3.21, and
not the optional 3.90!) I have a '95 5 speed MP SBEC& K&N FIPK courtesy
Jules and Mastercard :) I was able to simply replace the exhaust from
the CAT back 3" with a stainless ULTRA-FLO muffler (completely open
inside with no baffels)... I had the rear of the CAT (orginally a 2.5")
'opened up' to a 3", then had the mandrel bent pipe welded to it.
No O2 stuff back there like on the '96-'97...
