Install was pretty easy and man it sounds awesome. One thing that was strange was all of the manifold nuts were 15 mm except one was 11/16. Are they all like that? I didn't put in new studs or change the gasket and I have no leaks. You can feel the car pull harder up top now and the sound is awesome. You can't beat that for $120 shipped.


My SES light is not on yet but when it does come on it won't hurt anything will it? I have read on here where people say the rear O2 sensors won't change anything they will just throw the code, is that right? I plan on getting the diablosport or the mil eliminators eventually.

BTW I have stock mufflers and it sounds awesome with the H-pipe.

Stock mufflers with an h-pipe does sound very good. It has a different tuned tone that you don't here that often. I ran my hi-flow H pipe with the stock mufflers for almost a year and I got compliments all the time.

Yeah it sounds awesome. Doubt I will ever change mufflers.

Where did you get it? That's a good price, I might have to pick one up for $120.

Email the guy and offer him 120 shipped. Here is his email. mustang2race@dsr3.com

Here is his site.

http://www.dsr3.com/index.asp?initemuid=93&fcmd=item

There is a thread on corral where he said make him an offer on any of his products. That is how I found out about it.

The thing probably cost about $30 to ship so he can't be making much on it at all.

There is nothing like the H pipe for sound. I hate the raspy, nasty sound of an X. I love the throaty, aggressive tone of the H. Both our GTs have an H. Mine has the MRT catted H, and my wife's has a Mac catted H.

Are you sure? It was completely stock when I got it other than a shifter. It even has the stock mufflers. The stock H never looked like it had been off before.

The previous owner probably pulled off their midpipes before selling it..
