Exhaust: SLP Loudmouth
CAI AND Tuner (You HAVE to have both.) should be purchased from either WWW.Brenspeed.COM or WWW.Bamachips.COM

Just select one of their packages.

Beware, the SLP loudmouths are furotious! They are extremely loud and obnoxious!

If you want the deapest and most faithful sound to the mustang, go with the borla catbacks.. although pricey, you do get what you pay for. There is drone noise but who carez right?? u bought a stang.. not an ultra quite inside the cabin lexux es 350!

The MAC's have a very deep growl to them as well.

I use the Flowmaster AT- I really like them and the K/N CAI with the Predator tune- good bang for the buck - IMHO

You are going to get a lot of opinions on the intake, but when it comes down to it most of them are very similar.

For what it's worth, I bought a C&L based on reading many online reviews. It was VERY high quality (much nicer than I had expected), I am more than satisfied with my purchase.

You will definatley need to buy a tuner as well. It's mandatory for the CAI and it's also great to have for future mods. Buy a package from a known tuner, such as Brenspeed, Evolution, Bama, etc....

As for the exhaust, my vote goes for the Borlas. Specifically, the "round" type (aka Stingers). If you want to kill the drone, just add a couple of resonators.

I have the Magnaflows. They're probably the quietest rumble you can get and very little drone. If you want to make noise then SLP loudmouths.

I have the Mac Mufflers, they sounds great, and a Mac Cold Air, with a predator tune. Dollar for dollar a good deal, and the Mac CAI is supposed to produce as much HP as high dollar CAI, so it comes down to appearance.
