I genuinely don’t understand why major companies aren’t building mid pipes and cat backs with better resonators, the cars sound like ass without them.
Or they’re just off shore cheap pipe fabs idk.
Should be an easy high quality shelf solution.
2nd opinion, that’s a ridiculous price.
I paid 1k at a mustang specialty shop. Brought in the headers (new kooks)
3k is like saying… F off, I don’t want to do it.
As someone that worked in Ford paint department for years, this is ridiculous.
The frame skids have different mounts/points etc to accommodate prior vehicles etc.

All stock trans btw, all no issues afaik.
Every stick car I’m in nowadays, all I can feel is the loss of momentum between shifts, and it’s not like the cars are solid axle, train tracking 1/2/3
NMRA coyote stock has been deep 9s for probably a decade or more.
Sealed engines.
also that’s Flores buddy bondo bird, used to be pretty frequent in the chat.
It is so much extra work to do plugs on this car, I’d leave it alone.
You need to pull the battery, part of the rear cowl panel and remove the battery heat shield plate to get back into 7/8. Like a few hours.

it instantly had not only much better stance and handling, but it eliminated all the slop from the IRS cradle and the car was instantly transformed.
