    who makes the Best Catalyic H-Pipe?

    In my state it's like a $50 fine or something but it's never enforced. In CA I'm sure it's the same if not worse.

    deck Lid

    The rack strips are riveted to the decklid. So if you wanted a nice clean look you would have to have the holes filled and repaint the deck. To save time and money, just buy a used coupe lid and have it painted. I've seen people just remove the wing looking piece and leave the strips but it...

    who makes the Best Catalyic H-Pipe?

    I've used the Mac H-pipes on every Mustang I've owned. Fitment has always been good and they use Catco cats which are one of the best on the market. On a side note, If this is just for the emissions test day and it will come off right after, I'd say just buy a used stock H off ebay for a...

    header to x-pipe bolts

    That's basically what I did with mine. Did it all at one time. had everything off in less than an hour. Headers were the easiest. Your best bet is to take off the headers to replace the studs. You'll save your neck, back and nuckles at the same time trying to get the stud out on a bench in...

    Annoying Squeaking/Chirpping noise

    Every day when I first drive my car after it sits for several hours there is a chirpping noise that increases with speed up to like 30mph and it goes away. It only does it for a few blocks and then it's gone. I'm assuming heat and friction build up cause it to stop making the noise. Applying...

    245 vs 255/50/16's

    On stock rims go with the 245/50's. I had the KDWS tires that 5spd GT talked about in 245/50 on my stock rims when I had them and I'll second what he said. Great tire for the money. Anything more on a stock rim is going to bulge out on the side wall. I don't see anything higher to give you...

    Real diff between A9L and A9P???

    That's what I understand also. It has to do with the harness and a few other things.

    Real diff between A9L and A9P???

    In my first post, I was just quoting what I have read in my Mustang Technical Reference Book and also what I have been told. The book was written by Ford so I'm going by that.
