Default noticable performance increase?

When I purchase:

BBK CAI
BBK full length headers
BBK short o/r h pipe
Magnaflow Magnapack exhaust

For my 2000 gt, how much would I notice the increase in performance?

BTW I'm going with bbk because it's cheaper

You will definitely feel a difference. I would say that combo will give you another 25-30 rwhp or so.

BBK h pipe sounds like ***! Seriously, ***! Don't get it!

I have BBK LT headers, BBK high flow H, and Force II catback and everyone tells me my car sounds bad ***. I love it, but get whatever YOU like.

And btw...I noticed you said the o/r H....that's the one without cats right? I have the one with high flow cats so maybe it's a lil different.

I've only heard o/r h BBK and it sounds horrible. It's quite possible, however, that there's a big diff b/t catted and o/r.

You'll absolutely notice and feel a difference! While you are at it, if you have not done it already, get a 75mm throttle body/plenum and you'll feel it for sure!!!

+1. You have the exhaust going out, so might as well get more air coming in.

Default RE: noticable performance increase?

well are there any headers that can fit on the stang without buying an x or h pipe? because if I could save some money there that would be nice. and headers also increase performance more right......
