How hard is it to install a intake? Im going to be getting the MAC CAI in a few weeks and i want to know what i pay most attention to when installing it... ive never installed one before and i can get help but is there anything i should know before doing this.... also im thinking about welding or bolting on a y pipe from my cat to make dual exhausts.... will this gimme ne power or reduce it? also i might not put mufflers on it but if it sounds like **** i have to... thanks

 

It's very very very easy. About a 1/10. There are step by step instructions online to help, i think www.mustangworld.com may have them.

And I'm not sure what year stang you have, but you should already have a Y pipe. You have two cats, that the Y pipe connects to, then the single exhaust pipe comes out the bottom of the Y...get it? You'd need an H or X pipe to make a true dual exhaust. Honestly, you're gunna have to toss that Y pipe if you want it to sound decent.

 

Which do u prefer, X or H pipe or just make duals off the y? and how much am i looking at for the X or The H?

 

Dump the Y..it won't be TRUE duals with a Y-Pipe. I prefer the X-Pipe. IMO it sounds better than the H-Pipe on a 6er. AND..if you look at it..you get better flow with an X rather than a H pipe...X pipe had no 90 degree angles.

 

pricing?

 

My setup was custom done. $600.00 complete. that includes custom X-pipe and the Flowmaster 40 series mufflers.

I had a custom H pipe fabricated, so it was very cheap. Plus, I'm close friends with the guy who was doing it. I prefer H pipes.
