friend of mine just got these put on his car , he about crapped his pants , havent dynoed yet but I have an article at home in an older 5.0 mag ,where bassani midlengths and catted x pipe went from 309 rwhp to 343 rwhp , I would say by the way he ran beside my car afterwards that he is closer to 350 rwhp or more , that thing is flying now , before it felt like it was holding back , now its wide open . busting the tires up in third , before would barely chirp second .

Tell the wife that you broke a part or something and you need to spend some $$$. That's what I tell my wife every time I want to get something for the Roush. She knows squad about cars! She still thinks that the KB blower is an engine part that I broke on my way from work to home!!!

Was the Roush stock (using the term loosely), prior to the longtubes?

Yeah, that TB is stock. Thanks for the info on everything. Darn it, now you're going to make me go spend some money . May have to try the previously mentioned trick of telling the wife the car broke.
