well id love to get this as well but i dont have the tools to install it myself.....have all of your guys installed them yourselves or did you pay someone (how much did it cost if u had them put on)?
there are no special tools...i do the swap myself in 45 minutes. It gets too loud for everyday driving so I swap them back and forth when I feel like hearing it.
All you really need is a 15mm wrench for the manifold nuts and a basic socket set.

Most all shops won't install any O/R pipes. If it involves dropping the cats, they won't touch it.

All you need is a socket set, a couple of extensions, and a universal joint (swivel). That, a little patience, and some PB Blaster (or similar) is all you need. I didn't even jack the rear end up to put my on last weekend.
Well i ordered mine from Brenspeed and they will be here on Friday....my access to tools is very limited but ill try to install it myself........hopefully i can change it out without having to jack it up since i dont own one but we'll see..........
You'll need to jack up at least the front end. Go buy a set of jack stands and use the crappy jack that comes with your car. May take a while to jack it up, but if you don't want to buy a jack, that'll work.
hmmm.....i see....ill give a friend of mine a call and try to borrow his and when he comes into work tomorrow i can get it from him at shift change.....so i should be able to install it with just jacking the front of and the use of some basic tools right? lol
sry for all the questioning, but im supposed to be saving some money, which I am, but i shimmied the few bucks away and dont want the gf to find out, at least until its too late...

Are there any performance gains from this mod? Or is it done mainly for sound?
Also, anyone have this setup with SLP LM's?

i got these 'pypes' mated up to MBRP loudmouth. i say DO IT! its a good loud, people will love you for it, lol. no seriously, you will get noticed. i hear people mumble "...mustang..." when i drive by, and occasionally i'll get a "your car sounds aggressive, i love it" or "do a burn out." this week i got multiple warnings on a trip to orlando, but only cuz i got on it right in front of a cop =) secretly, he must have liked it because he said to me "gotta make noise in front of all the girls huh?"
i feel a difference in power, but maybe it's just all the noise adding to the effect. i think the 10 rwhp might increase slightly with other mods as well. i think that number was determined off a stock gt.
anyone's setup rattle after install? i tightened everything down to make sure, but i still got some rattle at high speeds. the rattle seems to have pretty much gone away, unless i hit a small bump at high speed, then i hear it again.
I just installed the o/r h-pipe today and it sounds AWESOME!! I love it!!
But ....
I have a rattling noise when I step on it!! What could be the problem? Where should I look first? or is it just a normal noise that I'll have to live with?
And .. How did you adjust the Stingers to be aligned perfectly? Mine is sitting a bit low.
