That means alot coming from you PD! lol (Mr. Negative)



The windows are close to the top of the list now.

The tips are made by "PYPES" and were made to fit the new mustangs. I got them at a swap meet new for $40. They also have built in resonators too, so not just a hollow tip.

Damn, you certainly got a killer deal. From what I'm seeing, these things retail ~$330.

Yes sir! I got them from the "pypes" truck at a swap meet. They were cheap because they had some small defects and couldn'tsell them for full price. One had a small dent on the pipe, and the other had a bent hanger. Neither bothered me at all

I took it to a friend at lexus. We have the camber "maxxed out" as he put it. I'm running -3 in the rear and -2 in the front. And yes, it is pretty low. The lowest part of the chassis has about 1 1/2 inches of clearance. It has "natural camber"
