used to be a member at stangnet but i got fed up with all the idiots over there, and not even being able to get a simple answer on their forums. hope this will be better!

i drive a 1997 GT, red, auto, bassani O/R X-pipe, flowmaster 40's, 3.42's in the rear end, limited slip, bbk cai with k&n filter, still got a grand total of under $2,000 into it, including the purchase price. just lookin for some performance on a budget.

thanks. my main breaking point was when i asked for a little help with header install. i COULD NOT get a straight answer. EVERY SINGLE post was along the lines of "dont get shorties, theyre worthless" etc. i tried explaining how i got a brand new bassani stainless steel xpipe for basically free, and a good deal on headers, dont have $700 for longtubes and new xpipe ect, but no one seemed to get it.

welcome. what part of ill? thats pretty much the same reason i got my unequal headers cause i already had the h-pipe.
