    Just installed my UPR O/R X-pipe....OMFG!!! Wow.....

    I should have read through all the posts before I mnade my first post. Sorry to hear you're having trouble, I have no idea why it would sound worse the day after. If anything, mine sounds better since it has had time to "season." AS far as your mils go, are you sure you taped them up good and...

    Just installed my UPR O/R X-pipe....OMFG!!! Wow.....

    I have the exact same setup, but it only took me and a buddy about 3 hours for the install plus mil elimin. We got lucky. AS far as the sound goes, I agree 100%. A lot of people on here think you either have to spend a fortune for your X or not use 2 chamber flows, but I find the...

    X pipe question

    The UPR x is a two piece bolt on. All I had to do was put the car on jack stands, unbolt the factory H, and replace it with the x. I believe there were 8 bolts total. It took some time, but if you have an extra pair of hands to help you it's not bad at all. Here's a link on how to do an...

    X pipe question

    The X will eliminate your factory mid pipe which includes your cats. You can by a catted x or non catted (off road). If you get the off-road X, you will need to buy mil eliminators to keep your check engine light from tripping. AS far as buying an x or having a muffler shop fabricate one, I...

    mustang GT vs lightning

    I know what you mean, but they say the modulars don't really wake up until you get the first 5K on them, and that's the truth. Mine seemed to run stronger after 5k...of course that's also about when I started modding, so who knows? :shrug:

    mustang GT vs lightning

    The very first (and only) street race where I've lost was to an '00 L, but that was right after I got my car (maybe 2k on the odometer). I had no mods at all, and the L. beat me by about a car length-to a lenght and a half consistently. I did get him out of the hole more than once, but he would...

    Ticking problem

    I have a very subtle ticking that I have been told is normal injector noise. A friend with an '02 has the same thing. That said, there are some people who have a ticking that are being told that there is a defect in the heads and that Ford has issued a TSB on the problem. I'm not sure what...
