The SLP pipe is aweomse, you can make it catted or not w/ ease as well as use the same pipe for LT's or St's....... It's.... MODULAR!
thats awesome. test pipes are usually for imports. glad to see a domestic that can finally bolt/unbolt cats. i might have to go that route myself.

Bassani mid-lengths do that where you can easily swap cats or not..never heard SLP's doing that????

jdaniel - Thanks for the pic. that doesn't look to much lower then my stock cats are now. - how are the mac lt's holding up? i remember you and MD saying they were starting to deteriorate a bit.

They still look brand new right at the motor where the majority of the heat is, but down where the water gets to it they are a little discolored. Nothing so bad that I need to replace them anytime soon. I think they will be on there for the life of the engine and maybe the new one if I ever need one.

Yeah Steed... why not MAC? and what would you go with?

Thanks JD... unless steed has a good argument here ill probably go with the setup you have, with the addition of cats mind you.... if the sound is right

I am putting on longtubes this week. I think i am going to do BBK chrome for a little more $$ than MAC. MAC has individual flanges for each cylinder which is more chance for a leak. I also had a nightmare with a pro chamger weld that basicly fell apart, (quality) but I love the pro chamber sound so I am going to cut it off and use it with the BBK longtubes and just weld the collectors to the cut off pipe. Should sound and perform awesome.

MAC's quality control isn't that good...I've read of people like RJM above with MAC problems...go with the BBK Longtubes and their matching X. That is what I just ordered.

ive been looking at bbk as well. i finally found a mustang/focus ONLY performance shop near me... the owner there said some of his cobra owners have lost power with the bbk setup. what years the cobras are i do not know. on the other hand this guy sells mac and bassani, not bbk....[sm=youreright.gif]
