Default *sigh* jba..

so yeah, I spent forever trying to fit headers and h-pipe, which don't really fit, into my mustang last year. 2,000 miles later, my catalytic converters blew.. so I sent the h-pipe back, after haggling a lot over the phone with JBA, and still had to drop about 100 dollars on shipping charges. The guy told me not to call again, because they simply won't honor their warranty anymore, because " a lot of guys have superchargers and stuff," but he was doing me a favor by honoring it this time.. great.

so I get my new h-pipe and install it, and it sounds great, drives well.. for about 2,000 miles. and it just blew again.

so a word of warning.. don't ****ing buy jba's products.

secondly, uh, since the rattling is driving me out of my mind, i'm trying to go out and buy the offroad h-pipe that will fit my midlength headers.. lo and behold, they don't make them anymore! I can only find two pages that sell them, really ghetto pages, who want extreme amounts of money (239 dollars? without cats..?) not to mention the premium i paid when i bought this system... about 600 just for the mid-pipe as i recall.

who said price denotes quality!?

but yeah, if any of you guys know of a page that sells the part # 6632H by JBA.. offroad h-pipe for midlength headers on a 99-04 mustang 2v.. please, pretty please, drop a line, respond this message, whatever!

edit:
err, 6625h? jba tells me two different mid-pipes for their headers.. great.

Why dont you just take it to a performance shop and have them cut out and wel in some pipe or buy some high flow cat and have them welded in (if you live in an emmisions controlled state).
