I think I will just save up for LT's but nothing is set in stone. Lol getting all these parts depends of selling a couple of things here soon.

I had my long tubes installed for $400. I think that's a good average price.

You'll be looking at 300-700 to get LT's installed depending on the shop. If I took my car to get LT's done at my Mustang specific shop, it'd be like 4 hours a side(320 a side).

If or when getting LT's, specifically Macs, do I need to get like any o2's or mil eliminators? I plan on getting a chip and or tuner in the future. Could I get away wanic ith waiting? My mechanic said that I am bringing the possibility of running rich (I think thats what he said anyways)? IDK guys, I really want LT's but are they cost effecting for a full bolt on GT? lon I may do cams in the long long future but thats as crazy as ill go I think.

You'll need O2 exstentions for LT's. You'll only need Mil eliminators if you put a o/r mid pipe on. If you get a tuner then you can have the back o2's turned off so you wouldn't need the mil eliminators.

got ya. How do you guys would think Mac LT's a BBK catted X Flowmaster exhaust would sound? I dont want the poppy sound of the o/r x. Would fitments be ok with that setup?

I love my long tubes, here is a clip of LT's and O/R H on a stock CB, it doesn't sound bad at all!

PS: using a tuner to turn off the rear oxygen sensors will cause a silent code to be thrown, so during inspection they will not pass you, same goes for removing the speed limiter.

I'm not sure if the bbk x would fit mac lt's. (maybe someone can comment on that) but if it works you'll have no popping.

I run a catted h pipe, and there is no popping at all.

I think that combo would sound very deep, and fairly loud at WOT.

I have a BBK O/R H and I notched the Driverside to make it fit to the hedmans I have now. I don't know about Mac's, might fit just fine.
