Default Just ordered my headers

I just placed an order for my kooks LT headers along with their o/r x pipe and LM axleback from LMR. The headers are gonna take the longest to get about 2 wks because they ship straight from the manufacturer, but once I get my SLP I'm gonna hook it up, gonna make my mustang pretty loud.

Doing the install with my friend, I'm on a military base we got a lift available for us at the hobby shop for a small fee along with any tools, so can't wait til I get my stuff.

I will, I been hearing some on youtube, few sound real good other got a lot of drone, if I get that I'm adding some m-80 to reduce it. I just hope it'll be good as is.

Congrats. I've got that set up with catted X and corsas. It still draws the attention of every policeman within sight. I'm sure your will be even that much more loud. LOL. I installed it with a friend, and it wasn't bad at all.

I'm personally got very small knowledge on the installation but he knows his way around any car. Reason why I wanna do it to get the experience.

Damn that's going to be loud as a ****.

My Kooks with catted H and boomtubes is already loud as hell to me. No way do I ever want to go any louder than this. My setup is on the edge for me. I like it though.

I hope you like X pipes b/c it's going to be quite raspy in that config. I'm not a fan of X pipes at all. Kooks headers do kick *** though.

I'm still kind of curious what my setup would be like with a pro-chamber. Oh well. I feel like I'm done with the exhaust and I really don't feel like messing with it any more.
