    why do X pipes sound "bad"??

    Why do X-Pipes supposedly sound so "bad" on a 4.6? What is it that sounds bad? Too high pitched? Rasp? They get such a bad rep but at the same time Ive heard nothing but good things about people with UPR and Dr. Gas X pipes, so are the arguments against X's only against chambered ones?

    what interior pieces are leather

    To the original poster: Dont get confused by everyone saying different things. The actual seating surfaces of the two front seats are real leather, along with the steering wheel and shifter knob. The backs/sides of the seats and the rear seats are simulated leather. (try putting heavy crap all...

    Anyone have a UPR X with flows?

    Well I got a prochamber with my flows and it sucks. It's WAY too quiet and has absolutely no "scream" too it. The deep echo-ish tone is definately killer, but I think the flows are the ones responsible for that not the PC. While the tone is cool it's too quiet when cruising and at WOT it isn't...

    something i dont get about autos

    Ive had two 5 spd Mustangs, going to keep the current one til im out of college, then id like to get a c6 Vette or some other convertible car (has to be a vert, im sick of coupes) Frankly I think id like my next car to be an automatic. I'm not into racing so the 5 spd is pretty pointless, I got...

    Got my prochamber on...

    Yea my friend said he could hear me from inside the house but I was really stepping on it too since I had just gotten them. I still can't tell a difference at normal crusing speeds though, way too quiet inside the cabin for me.

    Best Mid pipe?

    Dr. Gas all the way. PC makes a good deal of power (i dont feal it, but its proven) but trust me on this one, it's far from loud as hell. If you can't afford Dr. Gas i'd just go with some kinda H.

    Got my prochamber on...

    dont worry supstang you'll prolly like it, most people do. Ive been thinking of Magnapacks too.. but just switching to a regular o/r pipe might be cheaper. I don't want insanely loud either but definately louder at lower RPM's. With gas prices as high as they are I can't afford to be doing...

    Got my prochamber on...

    Prochamber with Flowmaster Super 40's.... im not really liking it. The tone is great but it's REALLY REALLY quiet, i swear at normal cruising speeds I can't tell a difference from the stock H. At a take-off, revving or if you really get on it (especially if your driving by a wall) then its...

    Best RPM to shift at?

    I didn't say I wanted to skip-shift, a few people here said they do it so i'm curious as to how/why it works? Nothing wrong with learning new info.

    Best RPM to shift at?

    can someone explain this skip-shift thing to me? Ive heard about it but never bothered with it. Do you just skip one gear? any random gear? How does it work and why?

    Best RPM to shift at?

    Just when driving around town, what's the best RPM to shift at for a good mix of some power but also good fuel economy? I usually shift around 1,800 RPM... but could I be shifting a bit higher and still getting good mileage? Ive never even gone above 3500 RPM b/c I feel like id hurt the car or...

    Those Borla tips...

    Does borla sell those tips from the stinger by themselves??? Arent they like 4 inches and rolled? They look awesome but i don't have enough for the c/b. Or if I could get some similar ones to fit the stock 2.25 tailpipes? I have flows and a prochamber but never got around to getting a full c/b...

    Whats wrong with my GT??

    About three months ago I started noticing hard-starts every now and then... takes about 3-4 seconds to start. I took it to Ford since it's under warranty (02 GT) and they said the starter was bad & replaced it. It was still doing it every now and then. I changed the fuel filter thinking that was...

    Badge removal

    Why do people want to take off the GT badges from their cars??? I don't get it, if I paid extra for the v8 model out of my hard-earned money I want everyone to know what it is (from EVERY angle)

    Napa stud kit for Prochamber?

    Just ordered a PC, i think ive heard of some kind of stud kit from NAPA that you should use when installing the PC? Anyone know what im talking about? Its going on an 02 GT.

    2005 looks nice,but,

    Definately keeping my 02, right now i don't think it's all that far from 300 HP anyway, and I can live with the little imperfections. Seen the 05 and am definately not impressed, if I want a 60's looking stang I'll get the real deal. The current model has this combination of a sexyness AND...

    UPR X pipe.. best prices?

    Wheres the cheapest I can get a UPR x-pipe right now? (couldnt find any on ebay)

    If you get pulled over for no cats....

    O/R pipes are only legal to use off-road right? As in the track? So if you get pulled over couldn't you just say your on your way to or from the track? Always been curious about this.. i mean how could they prove you wrong? You have to drive through the city to reach the "off-road"

    What exactly is "rasp"?

    Alight, im all clear on that one now. I actually love the raspy sound OUTSIDE the car, it does sound pretty intimidating. Damn, now i really cant decide between a UPR X and a Mac H (I have flows)... for the guy with the UPR, is there any rasp or odd rattling/clanking etc. once your at crusing...

    What exactly is "rasp"?

    And do all o/r pipes do it? I drove a GT with an X once (not sure what kind, not sure if the catback was stock.. prolly not) at WOT it sounded killer but it made this really loud and annoying sucking/scratching... hard to explain type of sound... is that the rasp that everyone talks about? Do...
