    Flowmaster VS Magnaflow

    why? i have never heard of that. anything thats not 2 pipes into 1 is true duals. on the muffler side, magnaflow has a new one out called the xl turbo, it has 3 equal sized chambers with offsetting outlets, and there is a tube running from each outlet to the middle chamber, and each tube is...

    Making exhaust louder...

    well of course a gt is gonna be louder than a v6. that is what we call common sense. any gt exhaust upgrades are gonna be louder than v6 exhaust upgrades. its the nature of the beast

    Making exhaust louder...

    to the thread starter: loud - LT's, 2.5" h-pipe (not from mac, their cats are pieces of ****), pypes mini cats (or offroad, if no emissions), and a chambered muffler (force mufflers are a knock off flowmaster, are cheaper, and sound better) good - LT's, 2.5" x-pipe, pypes mini cats, and a...

    16" to 17"

    if the tires on your wheels were factory sizes, and the tires on the 17's are factory sizes, there should be little to no difference. or you can check out tires.com, look at the tire calculator.

    Lowering Problems

    positive caster helps out with high speed handling and tracking. meaning you go in a straight line easier on the highway. set it as far positive as you can, it wont hurt a thing. also have them set the toe in 1/16"-1/8". however much negative camber you want depends on your driving.

    Rear Gear Swap? & svt Focus vs. A4 vs. Mustang

    depends on year/transmission. you need gears, while your doin it you might as well get a god tlok, and installation is gonna run you anywhere between 300-450. they should have an install kit, but if not, thats another 50-100 depending on what you get. 94-04 manual, you can get a tuner or a...

    Whats The Best Gear Ratio For A V6

    they dont make 3.45's for the 7.5 rear, unless its a recent thing. get either 3.73's or 4.10's. and to correct the speedo you need either a speedo gear or a speedcal from dallas mustang.

    New Exhaust

    you could check out magnaflows new xl mufflers. they combine a chambered design with the normal magnaflow straight thru and i heard it sounds awesome. x or h for sound quality depends on the muffler. x=straight, h=chambered, straight=anything. LT headers will also totally change your sound and...

    Bosch Plugs??

    not sure about the too much spark, but ive not heard any bad things about those. rule of thumb is, the hotter the spark, the better. there are people over at 3.8 who swear by them

    Long Tubes and H-pipe

    you need to get a shorty h-pipe, because a regular length one will reach all the way to the factory header location. look on the mac website, since they are the only people who make LT's for the v6. you shouldnt have any clearance problems with the tranny, the only place you might is with the k...

    Cheap speed

    a CAI will give 3-5, exhaust 8-10 (if only do duals, LT's add 15-20), UD pulley 8-10, intake spacer 7-10. stay away from a larger throttle body, throttle body spacer, and a larger maf. they will do nothing until you have engine work (h/c/i) or FI. Xcal2 will do wonders if you have an auto. so...

    New here and need advice

    maybe a new bodykit? that thing is an abomination. ricer mustangs are the worst kind. now that thats out of the way, i would make the whole car one color and the scoop thing on the hood a different color, as well as the scoop on the side skirts, and the front and rear bumpers, and the...
