yea i agree on that...it really just sounds like youre nagging though... my car will only see street duty once or twice a month, so im not worried about it...i did DD it with an o/r pipe though

your car has nothing on it that is not street legal?

I have kept everything I need to be street legal when my POS went back to street duty.
As a track car, I have run cat-less, but actually hurt performance, and I went back to a highflow set up. My tires are DOT, headlights are above state required levels, exhaust note is quiet, I have a front plate, legal window tint etc.... Never failed an inspection while living in Texas. Even as a track car, I retained EGR, evap and all the commonly deleted stuff. None of it had shown enough of a negative impact on performance for me to mess with it. When I had N20 on the car, I ran on the street without the bottle in the car.

I also drive under the speed limit on purpose. Shocker I know, but I've got nothing to prove on the street.

And I only posted all that legal info b/c apparently people can't just take my word for it (since i never post facts on here) and are too new to the internet to figure out how to find stuff on their own.

Yes, like it says in my other post, my headlights are within the legal height range off the ground. My car is 100% street legal in the US.

I didn't cut corners looking for 1 or 2 hp here and there like so many try to do. I also didn't fall for many of the misceptions that so many fall for when looking to build the V6. I built it smart based on facts and tech. Not based on magazine ads and shiney parts that sound cool.

from now on everyone that reads this forum needs to CONGRATULATE "lilroush" on being the best that he can be

obeying every law, or MADE UP ONES

and making sure he does not associate with mustang/any fast REAL car owners and y they bought that car in the first place

and providing a good moral person for everyone to look up to and wish to aspire and be like

u people, meer mortals, have no business even talking to a god like this, this man, he deserves a medal, or atleast a f%$king cookie
