Default headers & midpipe stolen

Just "stole" some bassani longtubes & matching o/r x-pipe for a grand total of $520 off ebay. Apologies to whoever I sniped, but that's how you gotta play the ebay game.

This stuff runs about $1500 new. Its got 5 miles on it. Was used for a test in a magazine and that's it. Happy birthday to me!

Also have CAI on the way.

Time to get a tune! After I finish the bloody knuckles install job done, then rest with a few beers - I'm gonna be a happy camper.

At first I thought someone stole your headers and midpipe off your car! I was like damn, that's crazy.

That's a REALLY good price for LT and a midpipe together. Bassani at that! My Kooks LT w/ H package was more than twice that. Now I just gotta get them installed sometime...

Thats the kit that has the front mounts for the mid pipe removed, hope it still fits right and doesn't rattle for you.

My 2008 has no hanger for the midpipe. I'm running a Bassani X right now (for stock manifolds) with hanger bars and no hanger ring to connect to it. No rattles.

I think in 2008, Ford stopped putting hanger rings for mid pipes.

Every once in a while you can find steals on ebay. I "stole" some new maganpacks for $307 new which normally cost around $600 new....I think I'll check ebay now.
