and

Hypertech Power Programmer, 1999-2001 4.6L Ford Mustang and Cobra (All trans) for $349.95

all for a grand total of $1963.88 before taxes... good price for all this? or should I keep looking... This is at a local shop btw... and since I'll be doing all my own work, I only need to buy parts and the tools!

 

Not sure about the JBAs or Hypertech, but no's to the others.

I went on Ninosport.com , and used the code TMS.com and came up with a total of $575.84(with tax and shipped) for the Borla Stingers.

As for the Bassani the guy has an open box "Stainless Steel" X-pipe with cats, for $429.95.

However, by the number you used above I'm guessing you looking at the BX(non-stainless) off road X pipe which is $308.46(with tax and shipped).

BTW...I'm not associated with ninosport or anything, but just saying I know at least 1 store who can beat those prices. Plus, you might do better since you're out of state(unlike me). I don't know if they tax everyone or only TX residents.

 

It's only residents of their local state... Those numbers were for a local shop called Thunder Racing (www.thunderracing.com). They're fairly helpful with stuff, just they don't know much about exhaust. Engines, they are great with. They explained to me that I could spend 5k just on engine parts and it'd give me about 100hp/120tq. All i remember are the number they gave me, other than that... I donno.

 

Seem like a super/turbo charger could do about the same power(maybe more hp - maybe less hp) for a little bit less $.

 

Well, I wanna get as much hp/tq as I can n/a... I'd love to have a 400hp car without a s/c, then add a s/c and get 550-600...

 

Yea....just remember......spend 10K on engine mods...or spend 5K and have 5K saved towards your next Stang.

 

True... but since my next stang will be in 09, I have some time [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/04.gif[/img]

Also, I'm trying to deceide which tuner I wanna get...

 

5K in the bank with interest....it might be worth it.

I think I'm committed to buying used Stangs from old men/ladies for a while. I'll probably be looking at an 2006 in 2011. The lower the "buy-in" price == more $ for mods.

Also......I didn't know this, but check RPMoutlet.com this guy's price beats ninosport.com .

 

the borla price is alittle more, but headers is about $10 cheaper... I trust ninosport alittle more though... (a friend has bought many, MANY things from them for his)

 

Yea....I trust Ninosport a little more too, but RPMoutlet runs a big 2 page ad in MM&FF every month.

Also just in case you missed it....there's a 10% coupon for stainless steel. Of course Borla == stainless.

I think since Ninosport would charge "me" tax, there's a greater "gap" in price.

I know before you wanted a BBK mid-pipe, but I think you'll be a lot happier with the Bassani.

 

yea... i know I would be... for alittle bit more in price I get something that'll last longer and sound better... all in all a but [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumb.gif[/img]

that 10% off thing, is that in RPMoutlet.com or ninosport?

 

RPMoutlet.com

I think coupon code 1212....it only works for the exhaust. Didn't work for the mid-pipe.

 

well... 10% kinda leans me away from ninosport... hopefully it still around when I buy my exhaust...
