O and another update...

I was driving around my hometown tonight......me and another guy in a mustang we're just cruising and we made a turn into a bad neighborhood. He went by, kinda loud, then i did (just crusing) and I got a beer bottle thrown at my car. Made the loudest f'in noise ever. Scared the **** out of the girls in the car. I stopped, got out, started throwing some f bombs at the drunk bastards. They said they already called the cops, i welcomed them to do that. They didn't, so i did. Sherriff came out, couldn't get anyone to admit to it, so now i'm screwed It left a few dents and a good scratch on the driver side towards the back. I'M PISSED!!

Sorry bout the rant.....life sucks

It's really not that much of an upgrade. It does rattle a little more, but it can be controlled pretty easily. It takes up a lot of trunk space, way to much IMO. 4 amps and 2 subs (I think 10")

Well, i'm effed cuz i never saw the guy that actually threw it, but i know who it was, just can't prove it. It's a small town and they are notorious for being retards about ppl driving by their house. I guess the only good news is that i have full coverage and the deductible, because it wasn't my fault and will be under comprehensive, will only be $100. That should fix the ding and the paint. I also have some chips on my hood, so i'll get that fixed at the same time to save on labor costs

4.10's and a tune will make a huge difference... it will make it seem like a childs play toy in stock form

Nice stang. Man I only get about 18mpg(auto) around my area but it's kind of like city driving around here. Either way I don't complain.

I'd say with 4.10s and tune you'd pick up about 4 tenths, but take the word from somebody who's had it done.

Well, apparently my car already had a chip tuner in it. Not sure how good it was but I could imagine that helping me on my mpg's....
