That's why I went with the H-pipe as well. Love that classic rumble! Here's a clip I've posted on M6G a few times. This is immediately after start up, so it's loud, then eases up a bit after I rev it.

In my experience with marriage (10 years this fall to the same woman), it is a partnership. Yes, I have my money and she has her money, but we're still a married couple. Did she say anything when I bought a new $1,000 laptop a few months ago? Not a word. A $60,000 car is another story though...
Leaving my neighborhood in the morning, I shift at about 1,500 RPM so as not to piss off everyone. My exhaust is LOUD when the engine is cold.
Morning/afternoon traffic: 2,000-3,000
Highway on-ramps: 5,000-6,000 :D
I'm first in line at a red light earlier this evening when a guy in a black Acura pulls up next to me and yells "Hey man, that's a great color on that car!" I looked at him and said thanks at the same time the light turned green. He then says to me, chuckling, "Oh, don't worry man, I'm not gonna...
Yes. The Steeda rails essentially provide full protection for the pinch welds that run down the sides of the car. I put my floor jack right under the middle of the rail and jack up the whole side of the car. Then I put my floor jacks underneath, with each jack about four to six inches in from...
That's very true and a great point! I'd need all kinds of parts to handle that power. New clutch, drive shaft, half-shafts, coil-overs, larger/stickier tires, etc. Blargh! :headbonk:
Paying a little ADM doesn't sound so bad now. :lol:
I've been thinking about this fact too. Since GTs are everywhere, the amount of cash I sink into the car now will never be returned to me down the road when I go to sell it. It's all about enjoying it here and now. That's why I'm questioning if I should just call it quits and be happy with...
Quite the opposite, actually. My GT is a daily driver and if I got a GT350, it would be daily driven as well. No garage queens here! Most roads I drive on max out at 45mph or up to 70mph on the highways. Adding a supercharger would just make me a member of the "supercharged car club" in the same...
This. I had my car up on the Steeda rails for about 8 hours last Saturday and never had any worries.
If you want to use the jacking points already on the car, I found this image helpful. I think this is the 5th gen Mustang, but the concept and locations are very similar...
I forgot to respond to the comments from you two guys...
Did I notice a difference after installing the brace? Short answer: yes. Longer answer: since my car is a daily driver and not raced, I can't be 100% sure if the difference is real or merely a Placebo effect. If I make it a point to take...
That's a shame. I love my DIB now. When I was first shopping for a GT last fall, I was ONLY considering black, red, yellow and orange. I stumbled upon my car while looking at used Mustangs and originally ignored it the first time around. After coming back to it a couple times though, the color...
I would be happier than a pig in slop if things work out that way. Spring 2017 is my target window for getting a GT350 if I can come to a concrete decision about buying one. I would want to put at least $10k down on it, but doing so means that I would have to come to a complete stop on all...
:shrug:
All kidding aside, I don't see why people get all worked up over badges and body parts. There's posers and wanna-bes everywhere you go. People have been faking high-end cars and everything else since the beginning of time. Ever visited a big city and been offered a pair of Oakley...
