    According to PartShopper the M5230-M58 is the FR500 catback but they have it listed for 99-01 Cobras only.

    Quality H pipe

    I have the MRT catted H pipe and I highly recommend it if you don't mind spending the money. It fit perfectly and of all my mods I felt the biggest performance boost from it. FYI, when I added a Magnaflow catback I experienced a very bad drone around 2000rpm although others don't seem to...

    Best exhaust set up for our cars?

    I installed a Magnaflow catback to my existing MRT catted H pipe last week. It had an awsome sound during accelleration, much much better than I was expecting. The sound clips I had heard did not do it justice. BUT, unfortunately I also experienced a horrible drone anywhere near 2000rpm. The...

    FYI - Steeda Grill Delete from PartShopper

    I was going to give the tape a try, but am now going to screw it down properly since it did not come with the tape. I will also stop by the Ford dealer tomorrow and see about getting the security screws. I guess I was more or less posting this as an FYI so if anyone else orders the kit they can...

    FYI - Steeda Grill Delete from PartShopper

    I just received my Steeda Grill Delete kit from PartShopper and noticed it did not come with the doublesided foam tape. I called PartShopper and they stated that the grill delete kit they are shipping now just contains the three OEM Ford pieces and thats it. :nonono: So basically as the kit...

    Need some Magnaflow help

    All the sites are suppose to advertise the MSRP price for Magnaflow exhausts, but just about everyone will discount them considerably when you call and ask. Plus most of the major sites state they will match anyone elses lowest price, so shop around then decide who you want to give your business...

    ahhh! exhaust sounds like poopoo

    When you remove the stock mid-pipe the passenger side gasket will usually stay attached to the studs up on the header. Make sure you have removed the old one, before putting the new one on the pipe.

    Hints for removal of Stock cat-back

    I started the car while the back end was still on the ramps and put my hand around all the connections (before the exhaust got hot) and felt for any air. I had several leaks at first so I went back over all the clamps with a 1/2 inch ratchet and tightened everything down good.

    Hints for removal of Stock cat-back

    I just installed a Magnaflow system last weekend. Get a sawzall if you can to cut the stock pipe off. Only took 30 seconds per pipe with a cordless sawzall. I did the whole install with the rear tires up on Rhino ramps. Only problem was that I could not get the new Magnaflow pipes over the rear...

    Removing timing adjuster, whats involved?

    You will need a new crank bolt, the steeda is longer, a Ford dealer should be able to provide the part number for you. Below is a link to Steedas site with instructions for installing the T/A, so you can see how everything was installed. Just go to "News & Tech Articles" and then look for...

    People with Convertible and Cat backhelp

    I have an 03 vert with just an MRT catted H-pipe. Although the MRT pipe made everything a bit louder than stock, the majority of the time I can barely hear the exhaust. I will be installing a Magnaflow catback this weekend. I will try and make some sound clips and post them.

    HP gain with h-pipe

    Can't say for sure because I did not do a before/after dyno. But my car dynoed 237/278 with my MRT catted H-pipe as the only performance mod at the time. The dyno tech stated that the stock GT's he has dynoed are usually somewhere in the 220's. Based on that I probably gained around 10hp with...

    Best place to get mrt hpipe?

    I purchased mine from ninosport.com , I just checked their web site and price seems to be the same. Partshopper here has it listed for $449 but don't know how shipping compares. They are expensive but great quality, sound and performance.

    Topline Catback Installed with Spintechs & Vid!

    does anyone know what series the Flowmaster mufflers are that they are offering? Can you get the exhaust made with the 3 chamber 50 series?

    question about the borla stinger exhaust

    I think I have just made up my mind and am going with the Borla's. I was going to get the Flowmaster Force II's but I just wasn't impressed with the overall quality.

    question about the borla stinger exhaust

    Great sound clip, best I have heard so far :hail2: How are they at cruising speed?

    question about the borla stinger exhaust

    Like I said before, those that have Borlas really like them. In terms of loudness, are they closer to Magnaflows or Magnapacks, I have heard tons of sound clips of those. I want a deep powerful sounding exhaust to complement my MRT H-Pipe :banana: which I love, but don't want drone or anything...

    question about the borla stinger exhaust

    I am also very interested in hearing more. I have been searching on it all morning. It seems that everyone that has one really likes it, but I could not find very many decent sound clips. How does the Stinger compare in volume and tone versus the Magnaflow, Magnapack and Flowmaster 40's?

    Got my Steeda Cat back's Yesterday...

    were you able to do the install while leaving the rear tires on the ramps? I hope to install a cat-back soon and was wondering if I have to put the back end up on jacks or if I can leave it up on ramps?
