Hey guys,

I'm looking to do my Intake / Exhaust soon, was wondering what the best course of action was. My budget is like, $1500ish maybe more. I've been looking around and can't make up my mind. I know there's a lot of things out there (brands, types, etc) but, I don't know which would be best for me.

I'd just love to have that deep growl that the Mustangs I've seen have. I believe they don't have cat's or muffler's either. These don't really matter to me, if there's a system out there that sounds nasty and uses cat's / muff's then let me know about it, if not- same thing. It really doesn't matter to me.

Also, headers? Full or short? Brand? Agh! I'm really confused here. My car is a 2004 Mach1, and if you guys have any ideas on what the best course of action is- by all means post. It'd be most appreciated.

Longtubes. Slp's are 900.00 or bbk's are 550.00. Then an offroad matching xpipe and I would go with Dynomax bullet mufflers cause they are cheap about 40.00 a piece and they are just like the Slp LM2's, and put some tips on. or you could get a catback. Slp Lm1's are the loudest I've heard and it sounds good. But its about 500.00 but great quality. My exhaust setup is in my sig.

How about:

BBK coated longtubes $509.00
http://www.americanmuscle.com/bbk-fulllengthheaders-99-04-cobra.html

O2 extensions 35.00
http://www.americanmuscle.com/bbk-o2-extension-harnesses.html

BBK shorty off road H pipe 160.00
http://www.americanmuscle.com/bbk-hpipe-shorty-offroad-9604.html

MIL Eliminators 65.00
http://www.americanmuscle.com/stmilel.html

Magnaflow catback 497.00
http://www.americanmuscle.com/maca99gt.html

JLT Ram Air CAI with Shaker hook up 150.00 + $15.00 for shipping so 165.00
http://jlttruecoldair.com/zencart/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=57


Now take all the stuff from American muscle.

509.00
35.00
160.00
65.00
497.00
= 1266.00 Now use the coupon code for 6% off = 1190.04 w/ free shipping on all that

Add the JLT to 1190.04

= 1355.04


That would be a good setup and still leave 145.00 in your pocket

That's nice! I like American Muscle, they're really close by to where I live. Quick question(s) though: I showed my friend that list and he basically nodded until he saw the Magnaflow exhaust- he recommended SLP's system over that one, any objection(s) / thoughts to that?

The other thing was, since I have never done any of the installation myself- how much do you think that it'll cost to have all this stuff installed? Granted, every place is dif. w/ rates and what not. Worth attempting myself or no?
