Roush axel back exhaust, cause the sound was too tame.

Hey guys what's a strong tape? i recently bought something for my car and don't want it taken off so easily it's about the size of a 12oz soda


Oh btw had a guy close by have his window louvers stolen off his car (older mustang though) be careful this was in San Antonio though
3M VHB tapes are amazing. Better then alot of bolts, lol

Its the same tape they use for these brackets:

Search amazon for 3M VHB tapes and there is a ton of different sizes.

CB005, steeda g trac, and both PP braces

why? because before i started throwing more power at the chassis i wanted it to be a ridgid as possible. Each brace has given noticible improvements on their own and together the car feels tighter and more planted. Not just at speed or in a hard turn but over crappy roads too.

Forgot to mention base GT front brakes as well, those are a steal for how much extra stopping power they provide!

My first mod/s came at the same time.
The true first mod was my JLT oil catch can, but a Prius tboned me and pushed me into cross traffic. Had the car fixed before the JLT part came in but made his insurance pay for a gt hood and grills. Lol

Tint....and then been spending months and months (almost a year)deciding on if I want Flowmaster Outlaw Exhaust or Roush.

What do you guys think would be my best bet for exhaust...here is what I am looking for
-Deeper tone, I don't want it to sound obnoxious
-Nothing more than $700
-As minimal drone as possible

Since I know FM Outlaws have a lot of drone that one is out of the question....but the $400 price tag is attractive enough to make me want it. Unfortunately there's not exactly a lot of 2015-16 V6 exhaust videos on youtube. Please help!

my 2cents on exhaust.... an i personally love the sound. you're never gonna get that 1990's v8 rumble from the 6. and imho the v8's now sound more like race cars. but anywho. i did this...

GT pull off from craigs list 100$ bolts right on
120$ GT x pipe from CJ pony parts you cut the GT stock pipes slap that bad boy in.
it'll take a few to get it all lined up and clamp it down. take it to a muffler place to weld it once you're 100% happy with placement.

this accomplishes alot for 220$! you get a damn nice sound, you removed the factory resonator and you now have 2.5 inch pipe vs. 2.25 inch pipes. and imho it definitely picks up some HP. i have the auto v6 and it will chip them in 3 gears with a K&N drop in filter. i imagine with a tune and a cold air kit you'd get even better response. but 350-400$ for a cold air kit SEEM nuts to me! good luck and enjoy your super cheap mod. the best bang for the buck. Once you start looking at cat back kits you'll cry at the prices. but this is a new style and it's only been a couple years, i imagine by 2017-18 parts will be alot cheaper.

F*** it I just went with the Flowmaster Outlaws, just ordered a few hours ago. I saw videos on the S-Type and I loved it but it was too expensive. The FM Outlaws were cheap as hell.

I even got too impatient and went with the 1day shipping for an extra $150 bucks because I don’t like waiting. Yea yea haha oh well. Im excited though.

I would suggest Muffler delete (free if you just cut off the pipes) or a muffler shop can usually do this for ~$100 to install pipes coming out the back. BBK Shorty headers, $299 for chrome on AmericanMuscle. Magnaflow resonated X-Pipe, $115 on Summit Racing. This is a total of ~$450 for hardware if you want to include shipping costs. With the extra $250 you might can find a shop to install everything for you. BAM! There you go, deep, burbly, not over-the-top loud exhaust for cheap!

hey guys, i just got some lowering springs installed 2 days ago on my vehicle and was wondering how long should i wait to get an alignment, the springs were used, enough for them to settle on the previous owners car
