i ported and polished the MAF, installed the K&N CAI, put on the Magnaflow catback. and all i can say is what a difference.

the magnaflow sounds amazing, i noticed a solid power gain with porting the MAF and intake. i didnt really feel anything from the exhaust though, but it sure sounds nice.

its nice to have a car that responds to boltons (vs my previous 4.6L mustang).

here are my first round of pics. i havent had any on here yet because i just finally washed it.

Wow just like mine but 6-speed what i want. Gotta get you some rims & Tint.

How much you pay for magnaflow Stainless catback? I got mine for $311 Shipped

impaled

i got the magnaflow packaged with the K&N CAI and an SLP airfoil from thunder racing for like $5XX

dood, wait til you get to round 54 of mods

impaled

not yet. they are on the "to buy list"

quite honestly, i really like the sound now. it still has that sleeper exhaust volume and isnt obnoxious *which isnt nesessarily a bad thing*

[if you want to see obnoxious, click on the link to the IROC's myspace and watch that vidoeo. 1 3/4" hookers into 3" collecter into a 3" bullet dumped 90* to the ground]

next on the list is BMR LCA's, PHB, Torque arm, and fatter rear sway bar and some struts up front.

impaled

IROC is at least past round 54 lol...

Once the Coating Burns off it will get little louder. It's not Loud enough for me though.

If you think it sounds good now, what till you install headers lol, it'll be load under heavy/wot, you will definitly attract the cops , i guess all those Mag. catbacks have the tips crooked.

Wow very clean formula. Just like mine, except I don't have t-tops. You also are pretty lucky, i'm stuck with the spidering on the front bumper cover. I also see your missing the passenger air deflector for the windshield wiper.

impaled

i really dont want the formula to be a cop magnet. its my DD... lol. i already get enough attention. headers will be on the way at some point though. i know how headers wake up the sound.

as far as the tips go, i have a little bit of adjusting to do. i was going to wait until i drive her a little bit more to really lock it in.

impaled

i didnt notice that. good observation.

You might want to check the air/fuel ratio after tampering with the maf it tends to lean the crap out of the motor and that is where the extra power is made.

impaled

i am going to get an AFR gauge/comuter at some point. i can tell it isnt lean though. i ran it like that on the really hard on the old plugs (i swapped plugs too) and they looked just fine. and it seemed abour right. i will be getting the AFR soon though.
