What are your plans for your mustang? You've gotta know where you'd like to end up before anyone can help you get there.

What mods have you done to your car and what mods are coming in the future?

I got the MACS, they didnt fit right. The flanges were all warped. I had to heat them up and fix it. Next time ill go with BBK.

But MAC was real cheap and a hour of fixing it was no big deal. Work great.

I had a set of flowtec shorties, they were okay, not the greatest though, I upgraded to bbk full length headers and they didnt fit properly, the passenger side one was too close to the floorboard and about 3/4 inch too far to the right.

I had to pull them over with ratchet straps then tighten them up.

it took a couple of hours messing around.
but the extra power is well worth it.
