the car is booked to get the system done next week, the hi-flo metal cat's should be here in a day or two.... the muffler's i'm still unsure what to put on ?
other mod's will be done over the w/end (depending on part's turning up).
the vision of the car (in my mind) is starting to come together .

eg: 11 to 14 second car's, 14 second & over car's.... etc.

I reckon the LTD would have a hard time keeping up.

I'd rather have the LTD though, beautiful car :D

I've heard the Magnaflows are good item to go with, I've got a set of Magnaflow 12215's lined up for my 5.0. They are a straight through perforated design so no restrictions. They come in stainless, or highly polished stainless.

You could go twin 11246 mufflers? They are only $us80 each from most sellers in the States.

i won that race (hence the pic),
but his best was only .2 or.3 quicker than my best for the day (14.95).
it was his first time racing in a turbo & has a few thing's to learn, but his top end charge was huge.
