RE: Back to the Basics (Bolt-ons)
No LT's now. I know several people that have 05 an newer stangs around here. Long tubes might come in the future and I'm sure it won't be hard to get rid of the O/R h-pipe I've just ordered.
I think that once I get this done, the next thing will be gears and then suspension/ appearance. (cervini Eleanor kit maybe)

Well thanks for all the input. After talking with Brenspeed today, I just ordered the Steeda Underdrives, C&L Street CAI, SCT X3 Tuner, and the Pypes O/R h-pipe. These were all highly recomended by brenspeed as a solid combination.
LAK3RS, Thanks for the extra pointers. But the blower will come in the picture a few years down the road. So I just got the pulleys while I had the credit card out.
I'll letall of youknow how it goes.

Well BleedinBLue, there is no time like the present. I would say just order it up and bust out the swipe card.
I get my h-pipe and pulleys tomorrow and the CAI/ Tuner in about another 6 days (Brenspeed's lead time for the combo). I CAN'T WAIT!
I already have the stock "H" off the car and just waiting for the parts to arrive to finish up.

RE: Back to the Basics (Bolt-ons)
Well, I just installed the pulleys and the O/R H-pipe. The steeda pulleys are good quality and pretty easy to put on.
HOWEVER,
The off road H-pipe (Pypes)in combination with my Flow master axle backs are LOUD. I actually don't mind the loud tone at idle or reving it up when sitting still. But, when you get anywhere near 2500 RPM with a load on the car it starts to cackle real loud. Anyone else in the same boat? It doesn't cackle a lot when you down shift, that sound good. It is just the acceleration after about 2300RPM.
Any suggestions or opinions on smoothing the tone?
