You and me both. I have a Percy Wheelrite coming on Wednesday so this way I can measure for tires and hopefully order some for test fitting by the end of this week



Thanks Tony! Once I get everything sorted out I'm sure that I will.

I'm almost positive I will be putting in a set of exhaust springs since the over axle pipes on the passenger side doesn't want to stay connected.
So what are you going to do with your kooks side pipes? gonna sell it then? You know they don't make em anymore? They're a collector piece Mine's staying on FOREVER! hehe.

I would but the drivers side is all squished :/



Maybe I can get some videos of this thing screaming this weekend if I get a chance to take it out on a highway or something. The sound is unbelievable especially when you let off the gas it sounds like a machine gun lol

Sorry to hear of the condition of the side pipes. Can't you get an exhaust shop or fab shop to fix it???

As for the machine gun pop, yep, mine does that too. Absolutely love leaving it in lower gears hehe. Bad for gas but who cares

I probably could, it doesn't seem like a terribly difficult fix in all honesty and I could probably sell them for a few hundred bucks. Hmmmm

Man, I love my Kooks sides - the attention and positive feedback I get from people I know, people I don't know, other drivers I pass by, stoplights, walking, etc.... you name it. The thumbsups' and smiles never end. If I were you, I'd keep 'em personally. They're ultra rare too - no longer made.

I love the way they look but **** I just haven't had any luck with the pipes. I'm going to maybe see in the future about putting them back on though since I really do like them!!!!

Probably over the winter or next spring. I'm trying to save up my money for brakes, Watson roll bar, and maybe an Acusump or switching to a dry sump setup.

I'm going to see about getting some exhaust videos soon haha.

Side pipes sound killer on the Mustangs.
I watched a video on Youtube of a S550 Roushcharged Mustang with X pipe and side pipes. F**KING NASTY!!!!!
If I ever mod,....it's an x pipe for sure, better flow and I love that sound. (Sound is all subjective anyways.)

The Roush is stock?! The X-pipes sound gnarly and have a nice scream to them up top for sure. I loved mine on the V6 I had and most all of the setups I hear them on. I think with the Long Tubes though they add to much of a raspy tone to the exhaust at full song.

Frankie!!!! **** yeah brother, next time we do a King Kone run we will have to have Gregg's GoPro running to catch the exhaust haha.

Oh yeah brother. My car is completely bone stock.
I was referring to a video on Youtube of a Roushcharged S550 that I had watched. A phase 1 kit with Ford Racing X pipe and side pipes. NASTY!!!
