going dual exhaust? I have the stock h pipe off of a 2000 GT if you want that. Very cheap way to go dual exhaust. only 13000 miles on it.

I also have the stock rims/tires. Only 13000 on those too.

I had an exhaust shop put a dual glassback exhaust on.....I want to go with Borla or Flowmaster I think...I will get more power from those wont I?? Ya Im buyin the strut tower brace, I dont think I would have a use for the stock rims cuz I go 18s on there now. Thanks though man

[KA-T_240]

you want a kit or just the mufflers for the exhaust. flowmaster exhaust sounds nice

[CivicEX7777777]

I want the whole kit.

[KA-T_240]

[krzydrftr93]

no more dual fart can thoughts shane. HAHA "Domestic Rice"

[CivicEX7777777]

nope, new ideas for stang

[krzydrftr93]

o ya what are those? why arent you talking to me?

[CivicEX7777777]

My new plans just so everyone knows are to mod the hell out of my V6 the "Mustang way" not the "import way"

[pin]

How about you modify your car the "Mustangdude6977" way?

[CivicEX7777777]

I dont get it? Maybe Im just dumb but I dont understand what you mean

[pin]

I mean modify the car to your own plan, not just following predefined trends that have been around for years. There are very few original looking Mustangs around here. People tend to stick with the same old wheel styles, the exact same styling of exhaust systems, and other careful "Mustang" modifications.

I know people can be extremely vocal against someone else's car if they think it's ugly or "riced out", but I think people take it to the extent that it's verbal bullying. A good example is Harwood with his Civic. Both of you have been accused of being ricers more times than could be counted. What I'm suggesting is you take some of the elements you like best about a lot of other vehicles and decide how to apply it to an overall theme for your car. You'll never please everyone, so it's my believe that you shouldn't bother. I know what it's like to have people give you shit just because of what your car looks like. You have to try not to take it personally if you truly like what you've done to your car. They're not the ones who put the money and time into it and have to be seen driving it.

edit: Oops, I'm sorry for dropping my long statements into this thread, and especially into the wrong forum for this.

i agree with pin alot. Exactly, who cares what everyone else thinks. If your happy with it then good. Dont care what other people think. Ya it sucks to have people hating on your ride but like pin said there will always be atleast one person. not everyone likes say marks teg, or tony's s2k, or any of shane's rides. I personally look at all of them guess as idol's pretty much and give me the motivation to do stuff to my car even though i would do it eitehr way. just really like what they do and want cars that nice too

Do as you please, but be prepared for shit. I get shit driving my car in the summer. I get shit driving my car in the winter. I get shit for modifying what I have. I get shit for not modifying what I have. Make up your own mind and then do it. But be prepared for shit.

[CivicEX7777777]

I dont think anyone has a car that someone doesnt dislike.....

[krzydrftr93]

exactly shane so who the hell cars what mods you have. If your satisfied with only looks then do only looks. No one is making you go performance but yourself. i just try to get you to cuz that is what i am into. I would rather run be out running 9 second passes in my daily driver and not sitting in a lawn chair for 5 hours next to my car so people can look at my sexy detail work. Just my opinion though. It would be nice to get the stang moving a little more. if people bitch about something about your car its probably because you dont have the kind of mods they have and that is just their way of giving there input.

[CivicEX7777777]

I do want my car to go faster, thats why I am gettin into the performance aspect....also gonna do some things for looks just a mix I guess but I want to drop a couple seconds in the 1/4

You can avoid shit altogether if you do things right. For example, making the V6 Mustang into a capable, all wheel drive rally car. A nice high stance and all. Then you will be simply greeted with dumbfounded stares and speechlessness.

[StangerBanger96]

but he's already got it tough enough starting out with a mustang. it seems like 98% of people in this town (or at least on fargostreet) hate mustangs more than satan himself.

EDIT: shane one of the best things you can do on a mustang to drop its times fairly significantly is put some gears in it. 4.10's will drop a GT .5 or more in the quarter mile and still have enough RPM left to get their car up to 140mph before redline (plenty of room for the speeds/times you seem to be wanting). Granted those are GT specs so im not sure on the V6 aspect, check out stangnet forums, the guys on there are pretty knowledgeable when it comes to this stuff.
