Can you tell in this picture what the pulley size may be?

I'm so giddy about the new car, and you are right.....it's going to seem like an eternity until Sunday.

Congrats on your new car!!! Great color but I'm biased too... Rwhp depending on tune will be between 520 rwhp and 545 rwhp.. Of course you chose vista blue w white stripes so that's adds 10 rwhp

Enjoy it !!!! Keep safe!!!

Is that all? Only 10 extra HP? I feel so cheated! Guess I should have choose "05 Mustang Red".

The mufflers are can type with Ford Racing stamped on them. Are they the FRPP Borla Stingers I see others post about? What is the general consensus on how they sound?

Gotta love the axle rust, but other than this....it's clean under there.

Stingers sound amazing. Esp on 4v. I would get rid of the cats to get a little more volume

Don't other members complain about excessive drone from this muffler type?

Here's the deal. I have a custom fit Pypes mid muffler system on my 2008 GT. It was custom cut, welded, fit/molded to the GT, and looks awesome I might add. It doesn't rub, rattle, or hit and fits like OEM now that it was custom installed. I'm removing it from the GT before trade in and reinstalling the OEM over the axle pipes and mufflers, so I will have it in reserve. Doesn't the GT and the GT500 share the exact same 2.5" exhaust setup and over the axle pipes? If so....

Who here is going to throw a stone at me if I install the mid mufflers on my GT500 instead of keeping the FRPP "drone" Stingers? I love the way they sound on the 3V and they do NOT drone at all.
