But then again, if they did, I wouldn't be able to appreciate how much of an improvement they make. Check out my disgusting Hookers.

What should have come from the factory? Long tube headers? Offroad x-pipes? Loud cat backs? Aluminum drive shafts? FLSFCs? I say all of them!

The connectors. Then again it all is pretty good stuff (except for my leaky headers).

I have a brand new set for sale. PM me if you are interested. My 01 was totaled before I could get them installed.

Damn, that looks good! I was looking at those MM FLSFC's yesterday. You guys are $killing$ me!

Do you notice a big difference in daily driving (if this is your daily driver)?

I could tell the difference as soon as I pulled out on the street. Makes the car feel a lot more solid.

Sub frame connectors should be everyones first mod on these car, PERIOD. I couldnt believe how much they changed the car when I finally got mine installed.

I need to do this mod also. Ever since I lowered mine, it feels and rides loose. It just doesn't have that solid feel. Looks great but rides like **** lol

Did it fix alot of the vibration and squeeks?

All convertible's and Bullitts/Mach 1's/Cobra's had bolt ins. Which offer minimal strengthening. Going with the weld in's I felt a huge difference on my convertible too.

Definitely worth the price!

Car doesn't have many rattles and squeaks (has only 52K miles on it). It does have a trunk squeak that is still there, but the car had a "saggy gut" feeling to it (if that makes sense) that is gone. I can tell the suspension is working and doing a better job now then when it was working against the center of the car.
