    Yet another exhaust question, YEAH!

    OK, it's all ordered and done. No more fretting over this! GT take-off pipes, Pace-setter adapter, Force mufflers. I can't wait to see her face, this will be a great present for her. I also have some more billet stuff coming. Thanks for all the help, and Merry Christmas. Ken

    Yet another exhaust question, YEAH!

    OK, I get the picture now. The lightbulb finally came on! Thanks for posting the links. I'll get everything ordered and make her happy for Christmas! Sheesh, I didn't have this much trouble with things for my 93GT...can't believe I am intimidated by the little V6. I already have the...

    Yet another exhaust question, YEAH!

    Well, I let the GT pipes slip on by. The price bidding was going up and up. It was nearing the price of a new Flowmaster Cat back system I was looking at. Right now I think I might try to win the bid for the new Flowmasters. Heck, that's what she originally wanted anyway. I have heard...

    Yet another exhaust question, YEAH!

    Cobra, Thanks again for the great information. The sound link helped too. It does sound a bit "buzzy" in the link, but definitely a lot better than stock!!! I have a bit on E-bay for a GT takeoff set with only 20 miles on them. I hope to win the bid today. The problem with MPS is that they...

    Yet another exhaust question, YEAH!

    Cobra 232, Thanks for posting that info, could be a lot of help. I got a e-mail reply from the SLP guys and they pretty much told me that their loudmouth pipes just don't sound good on a V6. I guess that idea is out now. I guess maybe the GT system is the way to go for the price. I can't...

    Yet another exhaust question, YEAH!

    Thanks TP. I am unclear about what the SLP pipes are. Are they mufflers or just resonators? Is it like running straight pipes or any muffling at all? They do seem to be a great product and the pictures look stunning to say the least. We do need some muffling under there. Anybody with any...

    Yet another exhaust question, YEAH!

    Thanks again. Hey TP....what can you tell me about those SLP systems? I just found them on E-bay for $404 shipped. That is the best deal I have come across. I checked the reviews section here and everyone praises these things to the max. BUT, what about on the V-6 cars? What would we...

    Yet another exhaust question, YEAH!

    OK, I have been to all the sites and checked out the products. Seems I have 2 choices: 1) Stay with the stock Y pipe and just buy a "dual" cat-back muffler/pipe system, either Flowmaster or MAC OR 2) Buy the Dual H-pipe adapter and a 4.6L cat back system, either Flowmaster or MAC Is...

    Yet another exhaust question, YEAH!

    wow guys, thanks for the info. Looks like I have some shopping to do. It sounds like you feel I have to go with a GT setup. I was hoping to just get away with bolting up a simple cat-back system...just a couple of muffflers and tailpipes from the stock cat pipe back. She doesn't really need...

    Yet another exhaust question, YEAH!

    Guys, I need some help/info here. My daughter has an '04 V6, stock, automatic. She had an accident last year and the body shop ended up putting a stock GT rear bumper on as a replacement. As you can guess, it looks pretty silly on there with that stock, single exhaust pipe hanging down...

    cold air intake

    Personally I would try and use a stock air box and K&N panel filter if you have that available. If going with a basic CAI kit and not worried about extreme flashiness in the engine compartment then the Moroso CAI kit is great. Still under $100 and works great. Ken

    Help with Rag Joint

    Thanks once again! I picked up the unit today from my Ford dealer. We checked it over and it seems to be fine...same dimensions as the old one we had. We still could not get over how the catalog lists the V8 piece over $100 more than a V6 one!?! Thanks for all the help, this should make...

    Moroso Intake elbow (87-93)?

    I had the Moroso unit on my old car and it worked and looked just great. Simple, basic install and lasted for years before I sold the car. I liked it a lot better than the chrome tubes...not as flashy, but definitely not hot to touch like the chrome. Ken

    Help with Rag Joint

    I'm glad that you were able to find a work-around for the disk problem. I went with a nice aftermarked unit on my old 93 and it worked great, but was hoping to stay stock on my son's car for now. Here's the next bit of info: I went to my Ford dealer today and asked to order the part. They...

    Help with Rag Joint

    Thanks again for the quick reply. I am heading for our local Ford dealer and see what they say. I know they aren't a "price match" place like Wal Mart, but maybe they will be kind. I did a search on here and saw where previous posters had claimed they had to pay over $225 for this piece...

    Help with Rag Joint

    OK, now you have really got my interest.................was that $125 a typo? I just spend the past hour searching all the Ford part sites and the cheapest I could find for this stock replacement lower shaft was $225 That price was from Fordpartsnetwork.com who usually offers some pretty...

    Help with Rag Joint

    Thanks for the picture and reply. I got the linkage out tonight without too much trouble. If I am understanding you right......? The DISK is not replaceable??? The only thing I could see was the studs would have to be drilled out. I see some replacement disk material packs at Auto Zone...

    Help with Rag Joint

    Thanks for the help V8! I will go out and give it a try. It just looks like I can undo the 2 main bolts, but as far as I can tell, the 2 stud looking things will still be attached and not let the linkage come apart. Maybe it's deceptive, sure hope so. Right now the...

    Help with Rag Joint

    Guys, I have taken apart and replaced steering shaft components on my old 93, but i can't for the life of me figure out how to take apart my son's 92GT. The rag joint looks different from what I remember mine looking like. I went with the Flaming River shaft on my 93, but not sure what to use...

    4500 rpm miss

    From a previous experience I had your miss leads me to think it might be your TFI module. I had the exact same thing happening...my car would only start missing above a certain rpm. Ford told me that they had seen this several times where a TFI would develop a "soft" spot and only miss at or...
