Tousley Ford has the Whipple for about $6300 shipped...best price I have seen so far.....but you can not go wrong with the Roush M90 for that price. You missed out on a sale AM had on the HO V2 Vortech (polished).....they had this kit for only about $3750. I came so close to buying it.....and I really figured out I want a Saleen Super Shaker.

Check out this video from Brenspeed

Congrats dude

Trust me, you won't regret it. Imagine going full bolt on's, and then adding an extra 30 more whp... because that's how much power the M90 will be making on low boost!

the m90 is made for a 100% stock car, if its not in the kit, you don't need it. no hood mods needed, do yourself a favor and pay someone if you arent adept at this sort of thing. you can install yourself, but form looking at the threads around here where the guys did self installs it seems that they are more prone to issues than those that had some one experienced do the install.

I hope you got a custom tune for those headers cause you need one. Kooks HF cats are prone to break and clog. JDM told me to take off my HF cats after installing my m90, which I did. Your gonna love the new power thats for sure!!

is that all aftermarket cats, or just the kooks ones? i was just about to pull the trigger on some bbk long tubes and catted x. i know someone will say get another brand, but the stuff is new and a damn steal so I'm not passing it up.

Where ya been Jake? They have been on sale since October. Gary Yeoman Ford I believe is the only place that still has stock. Call em up fast dude.....it aint gonna last.

Shane, Brenspeed sells the metallic ones that are for FI applications. The ceramic ones are the ones that melt and to be avoided. Metallic ones are expensive too...
