I put mine on almost a year ago after going the CAI route first and have never regreted the decision. I think my car will keep up with all the new over priced "Special Editions" Mustangs that seem to come out every day.

Good Luck

Thanks Neil. Always love a drive down the shore, but Downs was the one that quoted me $325.

I can tell you my car is my daily driver, it handles like it is on rails now, but the ride is harder than stock. Its personal choice I guess, for me it was well worth the handling gains.

I was considering the Handling Pack as well, but was told it is not yet recommended for verts due to the increased weight over the coupe. It sounds like yours is working out well. Maybe my next year's mod?

A warranty is something that they can ALWAYS find a way not to honor. Their attorneys number in the dozens and your's will LOSE

maybe go talk to the service manager face to face and see what he has to say. I say less than an hr to install both intake and mufflers

dude, drive to my house, I'm in southern/central NJ (Burlington County). I'll put all the parts on in about 2 hours. Buy me a beer and we'll call it a deal! Trust me, they are not hard at all. Plus I love working on these Mustangs! If you still dont have the shifter installed, I can do that as well, so that will be 3 hours total.

I can make it look like a dealer installed it.
