I had the dealership install mines and it cost about 70 bucks. Even the mechanic that installed it said that he was impressed with the way it was made and that he was going to buy one for his 02 GT. Hope that helps...
It does, what how does your car ride now?. Now you had someone install it? Is this something that I could do myself in my garage w/ basic tools & jack?? Is welding required?

It rides better man. Also I don't think the dealer had to weld anything and I can remember him telling me that it was a simple install. I could have probably did it my self but just didn't have time. If you have any kind of mechanical skills you shouldn't have a problem. I really don't think you can go wrong with it man.

Sweet thank you for your personal testimony. I'll be sure to be looking more into this coming up w/in the month or so. Esp hearing that it not only is benifical but also that I could do this myself.

Now last question.... what's the durability of it (if you know)? Because I drive my mustang during winter.

Well my man, couldn't tell you that? I really don't drive the car that much (especially in snow or ice) but like I said it feels real durable. Even the tech was impressed with the quality..

Ok, no problem. But in your opinion you've noticed better traction and low end torque?

Im just looking for the next step.... got the FLSFC's & LCA's covered.

You can't go wrong man, especially since you have the LCA's and SFC's already. And yes I can tell better traction ( alot better). Like I said I was all over the road spinning like crazy. Now it has gotten tons better. Buy the damn thing sonicx, LOL!!!
