    pros and cons on removing cats

    If you have access to alcohol-free premium, the smell really is like the old time muscle cars. My S197 had Flowtech Red Hots on it- without cats there was some drone but man it sounded sweet! I ended up combining the Red Hots as resonators and using MBRP axle backs- the tone was great. A little...

    275/40 - 18 Tires

    I've had Toyo Proyes, Mickey Thompson Street Comps and Nitto 555s on my Mustang. None of those come close to the Michelin Pilot Sport AS3's (all season!) I have now for wet and DRY traction even in the summer on hot dry pavement. If you drive your Mustang year round and want something that hooks...

    RWHP Vortech v3 and Novi1200

    MPH installed the blower before this car was sold new. Somewhere I have the build sheet from Modular Powerhouse with the specs, but I haven't seen it since the basement got remodeled- its down there somewhere. I'm pretty sure it is SI trim, though. Meth is to add timing.

    Mid-mount muffler setups-how's the drone?

    I'm the worst when it comes to taking pics and documenting, but here's what I did: I took an offroad h-pipe I bought on Craigslist for $30 and cut the pipes before the H. It slipped right on my Magnaflow high flow cats. I loosened both pipes at the header flange (JBA shorties) and moved them...

    Mid-mount muffler setups-how's the drone?

    Thanks for the info. I have researched SS glasspacks and came to the same conclusion- a bit pricey. Right now the ones I have are mounted with band clamps. I sawzall'ed 4 kerfs 2" deep on each side and clamped them to my SS exhaust pipes so the band clamps would cinch up. Don't see or hear any...

    Mid-mount muffler setups-how's the drone?

    Totally agree that glasspacks are not the long lasting solution- never heard of them plugging up but I know for a fact they get louder with age as the packing wears out. Also, they are painted mild steel and will rust out before the packing wears out- the 93 octane 10% ethanol pump gas I use...

    Mid-mount muffler setups-how's the drone?

    I still have the axle back muffler deletes from the Roush mid kit, but mid mounts are Thrush.

    Mid-mount muffler setups-how's the drone?

    Mine had a two in two out single chamber 8" long generic muffler for about 3 months. I replaced the h-pipe with it like a MAC ProChamber, and there were no clearance issues on my lowered S197 - in the end I never found axle backs that sounded the way I wanted with that setup so I went back to...

    Mid-mount muffler setups-how's the drone?

    Ok I just looked at this today and only scanned through the posts, but here is my experience- I have changed my exhaust so much on my S197 that I had to retap my stripped out hanger threads... I had the Roush Extreme mid mounts. They were very loud and the drone was more than I wanted. I...

    What have you done to your mustang today?

    The exhaust didn't do much but make it loud, but the cams did a lot: Baseline 464hp, 405tq Gained 58hp and 32tq AND the cams made idle sound awesome :)

    What have you done to your mustang today?

    Got my car back from LSXKILR Custom Calibrations in Bonner Springs, Kansas yesterday- Brenspeed Detroit Rocker blower grind cams installed and dyno tuned on the loaded dyno. Ended up with 522whp and 437 peak torque, I'm pretty happy with that. Check out the facebook page...

    What have you done to your mustang today?

    It was built that way by MPH- might be spoiler overkill but looks pretty good. Supposed to be a tribute to the red/black 1969 Mach1.
