I know where there is a very clean stock 5.0 LX hatchback. I believe it's a 92 but I would need to check on all the particulars if anyone is looking for one. I know there were some guy looking earlier this year bit I don't know if anyone still is.

Got the Mac offroad Prochamber in today and LOVE IT!




Louder, deeper, raspier, and more hollow sounding than stock. At highway cruise I was really surprised that it was no louder than before between 1500 and 2500 RPM. If I get on it, I can hear it, but at constant cruise I can barelly hear it.

It's definitely louder when I get on it though. I like this much better than the pypes offroad H that I had before. This sounds closer to a "long tube" deep, hollow sound, where the Pypes was more raspy and much more trumpeting.

I like it. And it's good to get away from the cats. Don't have to worry about the cats stopping up on my now. I don't think I'll ever put them back on. Anybody need a stock mid with cats?

Well I generally like to lurk and let you spend my money and harass you, but now I'm on a different mission.

Did you see my response to your "Spiderman=Kuro" post before it got deleted, kinda funny!!!

:LMAO:

Hey Nick!

Yes, I get them in. Much better, much more and deeper base. I have an aftermarket head unit (JVC w/DVD, bluetooth, usb, iPod hookup, etc) with subwoofer controls so I can adjust the crossover point and volume of just those two door subs, that helps. Still running the stock amps and Pioneer 4way 6x8s in the doors and rear deck.

I like the Shelby/Kickers and would recommend them for the money. 2 hour job.

So you just did the door subs then?? Not the shelby amps or trunk subs??

Correct, just the door subs, still have stock amps and no trunk sub.

Thanks, Greg. Yes, I need to get in on the track day. Maybe this time I'll get the tires warm enough.

I like it!! Thanks, hopefully I can hear it sometime. Looking for something a little more without going to a different head unit. Going to stay stock NAV until it dies!

Went out and romped on the new midpipe some:



Amazing how quiet this thing is at cruise, up to about 65mph at steady cruise, can barely tell it is there. But when you get it on it... WOOOOT!
