Looks like a good set of first mods. You just caught the mod bug.

Yea, and I just got home from work where my mustang mods rubbed off on more then a few workers at work. 3 guys are going to buy mustangs and we talked about mods the entire night and I ran my car around the parking lot giving them a taste of what a stock v6 sounds like and what my mods will change.

Thanks...Hey since we're talking about local things going on near us. I was curious when you have to have work done on your car were do you go? I need to go someplace to have my exhaust cut and installed I don't really just wanna walk into anywhere and have it done because I'll be needing some further done work in the future and wanna go to guys who kinda know mustangs and I can trust, thanks

Are they expensive, I mean I don't mind spending money if the job's done right and it's good work but there's some places I know that charge just way to much above and beyond. Im wondering what the going rate for an exhaust change out would be

Ok that doesn't sound bad. I'll wait until I order the exhaust in a few more days and i'll give them a call and see what they say. Only a few more days of saving up some money and I'll be cool
