haha,
Some time tomorrow (or maybe Monday) I'm gonna go order all the parts for my dual exhaust (JBA stainless H, Borla Stingers, hangers, all that fun stuff) and I figure with the install it's probably gonna run me a good $1300 or so.
It's not a super expensive mod, but given that it's basically just for some sound improvement (I have a single Flowmaster AT on right now) and that nice balanced look for my Mustang's booty, I've been spending a lot of time humming-and-hawing about the purchase.
So I'd love to hear from anyone who has duals about how great they are, and what a worthwhile upgrade they were, and how they'd be worth $1,000,000 to put on!
If you have any negative opinions or regrets about doing so, keep those to yourself.
Please, lay it on!

i LOVE my duals. you DEFINITELY WON'T REGRET having them once you get em. the only thing you might regret is paying TOO MUCH. my install costed me $100. my whole exhaust kit was about $500. i see that you're getting borla's and just the jba pipes but is it really that costly for you? what vendor are you ordering from?

Here's my cost breakdown (as quoted from Mopac):
Borla Stingers: $620 + shipping = $700
JBA H-pipe: $479 + shipping = $580
Hangers: $50 + shipping = $70
Install: $100 (just a guess considering all they'd have to do is cut the old exhaust off and weld the new one on)
Total: $1450-ish.
And that's if I do the bumper cutout myself. Yikes.
The look and the sound is great, but I'm not sure if it's $1400 great. I'll probably just have to flip a coin or something.

i ordered my setup from v6mustangstuff.com and had my local shop install the kit. try online vendors for ordering your parts. it will be MUCH cheaper.

Thanks though.
I definitely want to go after some duals, just basically have to decide if now is the right time to blow the moo-lah on it or not.

yeah, i guess it does sorda add up then. i didnt realize how pricey the borla's are. if borla's are what you really want, then you should take the plunge. after its all done, you might forget about what u paid.
OR, have you seen this kit?

in case you didnt already know, Borla makes Ford Racing muffs. They are top notch.
