    Musical Mustang

    Another catback question...

    dont mean to hijack the thread, but I think the info would be usefull: I see that a lot of people just buy the mufflers and weld them in. . . It sounds a lot cheaper, but is a full cat back more beneficial and worth the extra cash?

    Anyone here hate their exhaust sound?

    my exhaust is totally stock!! I havent checked yet, but I dont think I have regular mufflers, cause they sound pretty nice. you can be silent when you want to, and fourth gear pulls on the freeway are loud enough for eveyone around you to hear. . . I know most people dont like stock, but...

    OK to use prem. gas in 01 GT?

    I used to have a 97 infiniti qx4, and i always put 87 in it, till I got it smogged and it failed, cause it was high in noxious gases, and my respected opinions told me that I may have passed if I had always kept at least 89 in there. . . even though an infiniti is completely oposite to any...
