^^^ what the hell???


i have the JBA LT headers, O/R H pipe and the JBA exhaust. to be honest with you, they have never been 'raspy'. in fact, thats one of the things i like about them. it has always been rather 'throaty'.

I'm running JBA LTs and an O/R H-pipe on mine. I also have the Ford Racing axle-backs on it too. It sounds good to me. I felt added power when I put them on, especially at higher RPMs. I got a dyno tune on it and it put down really good numbers, 305rwhp and 322rwtq. I also have a JLT CAI on it.

Here is video of my car idling and driving:
