Ford Taurus SHO Performance Parts
Take your street or track performance to the next level with our Ford Taurus SHO aftermarket parts. The fourth-generation Super High Output variation of the popular Ford Taurus is already a top runner thanks to its 3.5L EcoBoost Twin Turbo engine and all-wheel drivetrain. With a handcrafted exhaust, you'll really stand out from the pack. Our engineers have precisely tuned each system to complement the design of the Taurus SHO. Add in the unique sound that MRT exhaust systems are known for and you can put on a show every time you pull out of the driveway.
Ford Taurus SHO Exhaust Upgrades
You'll fly way ahead of the pack when you have a Taurus SHO aftermarket exhaust system with the unique MRT sound. The Super High Output Ford Taurus is already one of the top full-size performers of the 2010s. A handcrafted SHO performance exhaust system will draw even more from its twin-turbo EcoBoost engine. Reducing the restrictions on exhaust flow means extra power getting to the all-wheel drivetrain. We also use decades of OE and automotive engineering experience to give the Taurus SHO a muscle car sound worthy of the 3.4L V8 powerplant.
Premium Taurus Exhaust Systems
Install a fourth-gen Ford Taurus SHO axle back exhaust system to loosen the factory reins. Our MRT Sport Touring Axle Back changes the sound to a loud, deep tone that's still mellow enough for the neighbors to tolerate. When you put the gas pedal to the floorboard, the aggression makes its presence felt. Click on the product link to watch multiple videos demonstrating its power.
MRT's SHO exhaust systems are made in the U.S. from T304 stainless steel with extra-large mandrel-bent tubing and double-wall beveled tips. For an even more badass look, upgrade the standard polished stainless steel exhaust tips to a "Blackout" matte black finish. It's one more way to Hear the Difference, Feel the Performance and Get Noticed - and you can install each system yourself using standard DIY mechanic tools.

Ford Taurus SHO Exhaust System FAQs
What size exhaust tip for a Taurus SHO?
A car's exhaust tip size is determined by measuring from the clamp to the end of the tip. The stock Taurus SHO exhaust tip is three inches. However, the aftermarket exhaust market offers many other sizes, including 4-inch, 5-inch and even 7-inch tips. Be sure to choose a tip with an inlet diameter that will fit your exhaust pipe diameter. The MRT Street Performance Axle Back for the 2010+ Taurus SHO has 4-inch tips that come with a standard polished stainless steel or optional black matte finish.
Will a new exhaust tip change the sound?
While the exhaust tip size has little impact on the volume, it can affect the overall sound. A larger Taurus SHO exhaust tip produces a stronger, fuller sound, while a smaller tip makes the sound raspier. Making the tip wider or narrower can also change the exhaust note. However, there will need to be a significant difference between the factory tip and aftermarket tip length, or the tip diameter and the tailpipe diameter, for it to have an audible effect.
What Taurus has a dual exhaust?
In the Taurus line-up, only the Ford Taurus SHO has a true dual exhaust system. All other models have a cat back dual exhaust. This means the dual pipes only go from the cat back to the rear exits, whereas true dual exhaust pipes go from the manifold to the rear exit.
Is it easy to install a Ford Taurus exhaust?
Installing an aftermarket axle back exhaust on a Taurus SHO is a reasonable and straightforward process. To start, use a Sawzall (i.e. reciprocating saw) or another cutting tool to detach the old mufflers from the exhaust system. Next, remove the hangers from the rubber isolator and set the old mufflers aside. Place the exhaust clamps on both the driver and passenger outlet sections of the exhaust tubing. Install the new MRT axle back assembly and snug the clamps down. Once you've confirmed the exhaust tip orientation and location and made any adjustments, tighten and torque the clamps.
