well considering the stock mufflers on the 99-04 GT's were a lot more restrictive compared to the 05 mufflers and their dyno sheet on the 99-04 only shows a 9HP gain, i call bull**** on a 26HP gain on the 05's...pretty sure they are just counting on some uneducated rich idiots to read that statement and run out and buy them based on a graph they manufactured

Man, that "Race Air" sure sounds great!! Where can I get me some? Will it work with this 49%hp gain fuel addative I just bought?

Most claims are made with a Predator retune as well (Since you pretty much cannot mod our cars without a reflash)

Hey GGIII, I was thinking about getting the steeda springs. How are they on your car? Its a 1" drop right? How does it look from the side?

look at the graph, it clearly isn't a mustang GT they were testing... the stock hp is only at around 170hp-peak...

The numbers they're claiming as "stock" were on a 05 Mustang V6, and the "IMCO" numbers reflect a COMPLETE exhaust redo, into a true dual system? Then those numbers *might* be possible, eh?

RE: IMCO axle backs...outrageous claims
I personally love them. I havn't noticed any loss in ride quality and 1" is plenty of drop. Anything more than 1" and you have to replace all your bushings/etc. or they'll wear out and you'll be left with a broken Mustang.
