Hey Sean! I wouldn't do it. The V6s with no cats get VERY raspy with a ton of popping. If anything, I'd go high flow cats and maybe add the Boss side pipes...

Is that even possible? Especially with it being so hard to find boss side exhaust kits.

I'm sure someone makes high flow cat mid pipes for the V6. And I'm personally going to (eventually) find some of the Kooks side pipes and have them adapted to my current cat back. Really, any exhaust shop could do this. The stock Boss side pipes are a little easier to find...

Nvm this app is fvcking fvcked. I cannot believe THIS is what IB came up with. I'll get on my laptop later. I seriously hope membership on this site declines and someone starts a new TMS with some other parent company.

Last night I changed the oil and the engine tick got even WORSE.

I also installed the sound tube delete kit, which did absolutely NOTHING to reduce cabin noise. Total waste of $14 because I never "show off" my stock engine bay at shows, so I had no reason to remove it.

Double fail.

$14 is a very inexpensive lesson learned.


Imagine some guys on here that go through multiple sets of rims and or different suspension setups because they aren't happy with the initial purchase.

I believe there was 20 of us, oldest car with our crew was a 2008 Bullitt with LTs and straight pipes all the way back. My car was 4th loudest of the bunch lol

Hell if I could fund it, I might have different wheels for every day of the week. Like choosing what color scrubs I'll wear at work. Lol

The difference is, I basically plan to replace the parts I buy. Which is...stupid, at best lol I just understand that at this given moment, I work with my budget and try to maximize the bang for my buck. Sometimes that means used parts. I'm not afraid to put used stuff on my vehicles, as long as it's not trashed!

Here's a sneak peek... I wasn't going to post until they were on the car, but I've been waiting for these to be done for forever!!

I ordered the knockoff center caps that weren't available when I ordered them, so the black/red ones won't be on there when they get mounted. I'll hopefully get them mounted on the tires tomorrow and on the car Saturday, along with my new (to me, there's that used factor again haha) H&R Super Sport springs. I really wanted to bag it this year, but we're planning our wedding now, so maybe next year! Either way, I'm going a little lower and less stiff on the springs.

Soon, I'll drop off my BMR suspension bits that I've been sitting on, to be powder coated the same matte gray as the wheels. It's all coming together guys! After I get my DDAYP51 legacy plate, which should be some time in August, I'll do the D-Day invasion stripes and star logo on the quarter panels and call it good for this year.
