tru-x


Hey guys i just purchased this:
Magnaflow Tru-X X-Pipe (Catted, 99-04 GT and Cobra) at AmericanMuscle.com - Free Shipping!
I was just curious what gains i should expect. I have SCT X3 magnapack, cia already on the car. I just cant wait to put it on.
And is it worth it to get the shorty headers? for the amount of money that i'm gonna spend on labor is i cost effective for the gains that you get?

i had one on my car before i did the lt's. its a quality piece, thats for sure! it has a sound of its own. the shorties give a decent gain, most will reccomend lt's. its a personal preference on what you do, i also one to reccomend lt's.

It's going to be loud, but not as loud if it was an off-road x-pipe.
