    FRPP Borla Stingers installed

    It sounds sweet. But yeah, if it was a deeper tone it'd be better. I wonder if these Stingers would still be as deep with an offroad pipe like that... hmm... That would be a lot of money for you to throw away just to hear it, LOL

    JLT/Tune/Motion Plate Questions...

    Motion plates are like a throttle body blade that resides down at the end of each intake runner. So there are 8 of them. The computer opens and closes them in an effort to control air velocity (torque at low RPMS). The problem with them is that even when all the way open, they still restrict...

    FRPP Borla Stingers installed

    wow, I actually really like that sound a lot! Almost sounds cammed :D So, that's just the stock mufflers with the offroad x pipe? I wish I could run offroad pipes, friggin Cali :( Didn't you post a while back about not liking the sound of the bassani mufflers with that x pipe? I recommended...

    FRPP Borla Stingers installed

    I felt a gain from my FRPP. Like I said above, if I had to guess probably 5hp, possibly 10... but no dyno to show it. Anyhow, Corsa weighs 8lbs more than stock and the Stingers weigh 10lbs LESS... both are flow-through mufflers, so they probably make about the same hp... the choice is obvious :D...

    4.10's installed-wow!

    Welcome to the world of Mustangs! :) It's gonna be fun ;) From my experience with this transmission paired with 4.10s the shifting isn't drastically changed all that much. I mean, say you're driving normally (i.e. not like a bat outta hell) and you're at a red light getting ready to turn...

    FRPP Borla Stingers installed

    The short answer to that, and what most people will tell you is "no". However... I did in fact notice a seat-of-the pants difference. It depends on how sensitive you are, but I notice even tiny changes in power constantly, even as small as weather from day to day, lol. It feels like...

    FRPP Borla Stingers installed

    You're gonna love them! The way they rumble and vibrate the car, oh and walls or whatever else is around! :D Give 'em a couple days and they get a little louder, but still just as deep! Loving it! :nice:

    FRPP Borla Stingers installed

    They just torched the hangers and adjusted over and over until they were perfect! I also had them remove the clamps and weld 'em on :) Another good thing is that now after a couple days of driving they are starting to break in and get a little more bark to them, perfect! Just a little louder...

    FRPP Borla Stingers installed

    Yeah, like I said above, I think I just got a dud pair :( Anyhow, $60 today at the muffler shop and now they look great! :D I LOVE them!!

    FRPP Borla Stingers installed

    You should still do the install yourself, because even the exhaust shop told me that most of these axle-backs are usually a perfect fit! They say I must have got an oddball. Besides, if it's not right then all you gotta do is exactly what I'm having done, and it still ends up being the same...

    FRPP Borla Stingers installed

    I got the FRPP Stingers for $404 shipped, got them installed yesterday! Sound is awesome! Very deep! No raspyness at all :nice: It's funny, now I can hear/feel the car idling from inside the house! Not because it's loud (because it's not!) but just because it's so deep! Sounds like a couple...

    JLT/Tune/Motion Plate Questions...

    Pro Mod, do you have updated dyno numbers since adding the motion plate deletes and bama tune??? I'm very interested to know how much those deletes really add... There's been claims of 20+, but arguements they dont add anything at all :shrug:

    4.10's installed-wow!

    Last time I researched all this and did the math, 4.10 gears will put you right about 400-500rpms higher depending on the speed you're going and what gear you're in, and 3.73 gears will put you about 200-300rpms higher in the same regard. EDIT: This opinion is based on the manual...

    Self Installation? SS Louvers & 3dCarbon Ducktail

    White05GT, is there any way you could take another pic for me?? I really need to see this thing directly from the side kneeled down a bit so it's level from far enough back to barely squeeze the whole car in the shot, so I can tell how far the 3dcarbon sticks up and out from the deck lid. Know...

    How much backpressure needed?

    When I cut the mufflers off my '02 I lost a crap load of low end trq!! I then installed BBK long tubes in an attempt to get it back, no go :notnice: Bought some MAC mafflers, and oh my lord, it was an instant major major difference! I then got all my power back, PLUS the added power from...

    Crappy Stock Paint! Help?

    That's it! Orange peel describes it perfectly! This sucks :mad: So some cars have it and some dont? There's this red car on here that looks so damn sweet! the paint has a perfect mirror finish! This isn't something Ford will fix under warranty? :notnice:

    Crappy Stock Paint! Help?

    I've been seeing a lot of pictures around here of some really shiny & perfectly painted 05+ Mustangs! Even on the very close up high detail photos! My Windveil Blue looks like crap, up close you can see honeycomb shapes all over the entire car! :( Is this normal? Or is it something that Ford...
