Then they wanna get it retuned for another 650$$$$$ plus the 900 for the parts...... So i said to myself what a waste....How hard do you guys think it is to install a prochamber and a axel back system?????

That's ridicuolous.  On my 99 I paid $600 for the installation of my headers, mid pipe, and cat-back.  That price included the cost of the Magnaflow cat-back.  Being that you're installing LT's you should have them tuned.  It will run lean if you don't.  $650 is waaayyyy too much though.  I'd shop around some more.  (in reply to NastyGT) Post #: 2

And yea, those prices are all WAY too much _____________________________ ''05 Saleen Mustang - KB Intercooled Supercharger @ 11 PSI 458 RWHP, 4.10 gears, KB Boost-A-Pump, 60 LB injectors, custom sound system, more Finance (in reply to 05Saleen#243) Post #: 3
