oh man, it finally happened!!Originally posted by baglock1
On a side note, Stangnet finally did it to me. I broke down, pulled the com out of the closet and had the cable modem installed at home.I am such a wh0re to the pony life
:OT: on a different sidenote, try and keep yourself available if your not working, to be at hooters on the 22nd at about 530 or so! ill give everyone more details, when i know more! so stay tuned :OT:
Cool. I guess staying in a certain class shouldn't decide what I want to do with my car. It's pretty obvious I'm not going to be winning anything in FS soon, anyway.
Does TJ sell that kind of stuff? Or do you just place an order through him and he installs it?BTW: What's a cat-back? I always thought it was just another name for the catalic (sp?) converter, but now I've been hearing otherwise.
Oh, and congrats on finally posting from home.
From the Cat Converter back...everything
As stated above. Or me and White's Cat Back...open air 
Okay, I got it. Cool. I kept seeing stuff like o/r pipes with cat-back, and I was like, huh? 
Thanks for clearing it up.

Yeah, good part about living in Florida...we can run off-road H(X,Chambers)-pipes...no cats required
Can you say free flow exhaust? I knew you could.

Can you say refuse to work on your car w/o cats? I knew you could.
Still trying to decide. But now, let's say I just left the cats alone for now, and got everything else. If I got 2.5 inch exhaust, would it fit in the cats, since they are 2.25 right now. Would modification be needed to them?

What a coincidence! I was down there today. The wife okayed the full road race cage and harnesses so long as I got the removable harness and diagonal bars :laugh: . I believe I'm going to go down there tomorrow and tell TJ to order 'em up.
Well, it turns out that Autopower no longer offers the removable center section for the full cage so it looks like I won't be ordering the cage afterall
. Oh well, looks like I'll be looking at race rubber and wheels Originally posted by erichmess_

Nope. Aftermarket cat-backs will bolt up with no modifications necessary. Same with the crossover tube. BTW, why'd you decide on the H pipe over an X pipe? Just curious...

H-pipes sound nice a deep.
I like h-pipes better on 5.0 but I like the X-pipe on 4.6's better. I dunno why.

I actually prefer the X sound over pipes just because most 5.0's I hear are overly loud and under refined. For that reason (and I love the x pipe sound) I'm going with the o/r X on mine. JMHO
