I'm starting to wonder what my FRPP/Borlas would sound like with long-tubes and an off-road H-pipe :scratch:

I think that's a nice price for them too. If and when I go with longtubes, these will be it

thanks for the great info.. I just order the same set up from Summit as well... I was goona keep my SLP's but I guess I'll have to hear it and see if I can stand it, are you goona get a new set up mufflers now???
I dont think I want to run any mufflers anymore, the old school sound is awesome at idle (quiet though), @ start up this things barks deeper than anything, and its loud and scary when I want it to be. I may toss on those turn downs though to see if they do anything at all.

Basically, the straight pipe is cut short of the rear bumper by about 8" but the velocity of the free flow, which is pretty high, may be causing some additional resonation by just blowing into the rear of the bumper.

I dont mind playing around with such things, its pocket change really.

Thanks Cleveland! Since your in Sacto, where do you normally make your 1/4mile runs? I may have to come up outta the BayArea next season, so I can have you hold my video camera..

I am about 2 hours south of Sacto actually, in San Mateo county out near 101. I just drive up there to go drag racing.

I always enjoy meeting other cool 05 guys or anybody who has a high respect for the Mustang Heritage.

The front 2 O2 sensors need to be installed. Find a tuner to write you a new tune for use with the headers (turn the rear sensors off) and install some 5/8" threaded plugs (i think thats right) in those rear ports.

Also, if you plan to use your stock H-Pipe do not cut it at the 4" from the end of the hanger bracket, IT NEEDS TO BE CUT ABOUT 6" AWAY AND EXPANDED AT A SHOP. Dont just cut the pipe, make some measurements to cofirm my advice.


The hangers will likely have to be welded in at a local exhaust shop.

If you have any questions I believe my notes will help you out with nearly everything.

I actually held the camera in my free hand. I just left the selector in Drive, something very unlike me.

BTW, I took the car out on to a commercial side road just off 101 and tested the full throttle kick up to about 2nd gear. There is no way in H.e.l.l. I'll be even able to ease into the throttle anymore with my powerbraking/launch technique. Im rethinking going to the track this Saturday cause I cant hold traction anymore. I really really need those MT Drag Radials now, it just sucks that the rainy season is upon us so I cant just toss them on my stock wheels and be done with it.

I'm just going to save up for a pair of 15" Bogarts and ET Streets to match.

Ok, someone asked for the pics of the turn downs that do the trick. Mind you Im still using the first pipe of the SLP Loudmouths so I could utilize the hangers. I just replaced SLP's resonator tips with the $5 turn downs.

THANK YOU! Now I understand... makes me feel stupid because I was picturing something different.....

Can you maybe take another pic from eye level when standing so we can get an idea of how down they point and how visable they are when you get a chance?

Thanks again.
