That's odd. I wonder why?

waiting for a response. kinda weird IMO.

I know the #8 issue is very unlikely and likely fixed in their tunes, but I'd still like that piece of mind.

m4a1mustang 09-18-2011 08:26 PM

Well, if you don't get it with them then you won't get it with anyone else. I still wouldn't worry about it, though. If your a:f is good and you aren't pinging at all, there's nothing to worry about.

yeah but I may not tune...it is not like I actually need the power:icon17:

m4a1mustang 09-18-2011 08:46 PM

Good point.

Red__Zed 09-18-2011 08:50 PM

though it looks like the tune opens up even more torque down low :yum:

m4a1mustang 09-18-2011 08:55 PM

Yeah, it does. It's a huge difference... we're talking 30-40 whp gains with the Steeda CAI and a tune.

ugh so tough to decide

m4a1mustang 09-18-2011 08:58 PM

Don't rush it. I'd get your mufflers first.

Red__Zed 09-18-2011 09:07 PM

yeah, trying to decide on those as well. I like the sound of the setup you have, but I don't wanna drop $600 on mufflers :ugh2:

Look at the Roush axle back. There's a guy in my girlfriend's apt complex with a 5.0 and the Roush AB and it sounds really good!

sound kinda raspy in vids...how do they compare to yours in person?

m4a1mustang 09-18-2011 09:22 PM

They are a little raspy.

Guess you're just going to have to pony up for the good shiite!

Red__Zed 09-18-2011 09:27 PM

i just can't swallow 600-800 for an axleback

m4a1mustang 09-18-2011 09:29 PM

That's what she said.

Wait then and try to pick up a used one, or buy the full catback. Or just get the GT500 mufflers.

The GT500s sound really good, and if you want them louder you can have the resonators cut out.

Red__Zed 09-18-2011 09:31 PM

ugh. I'm just gonna steal yours.

Should have it done on Thursday.

Might have to use the 870. :icon17:

Red__Zed 09-18-2011 09:45 PM

I've seen how you shoot. I'll risk it. :icon17:

:bowrofl:

Really though, take a look at the GT500 mufflers.

Alchemy 09-18-2011 10:06 PM

Back to the wheels for a sec Red. Here is a shot of my F14s in Bronze Burst. They really pop in the right light. Not that gold is the worst, I just feel the Forgestar gold is too light in color. Just a quick shot for reference.

Should wait until model year 2015 for the ford 5.0

yeah, I actually prefer the lighter gold. I looked at the bronze burst when I was shopping for Z rims.

Or buy now, if 2015 is really appealing, trade in.

m4a1mustang 09-18-2011 10:11 PM

Alchemy those look REALLY nice!

sounds like you're missing at least one car swap if you are me:icon17:

2015 is a long way away

Lemers 09-18-2011 10:13 PM

If I were single I'd buy a frickin GT500.

:tiphat: thank you sir. They are an interesting bronze to say the least. They can look a million dif colors depending on how the light is hitting them. I love em.

Lemers 09-18-2011 10:21 PM

Not me I'll be worrying about sending a kid to college.

I have a feeling you might be stuck in the 370 for a long time. If the 370 keeps selling like it is, there will be no more Z. :(
