some say longtunes, others say shorties. I think if ur going turbo, youd want shorties. If not, get long tubes

AtlanticBlue99 · January 10th, 2007, 10:05 AM

long tubes on any n/a, supercharger, or nitrous setup. you cannot beat the flow improvement of long tubes.

shorties only if needed for a turbo app.

mac is the only company that makes them for the v6 mustang, and nino is great to deal with. i called him and got special pricing on stuff in the past.

AtlanticBlue99 · January 10th, 2007, 06:54 PM

yea, flow with long tubes is much better than shorties. long tubes alone can gain up to 20+ rwhp

at least with exhaust, you can hear the difference as well, so it never gets old... but i know what you mean about the seat of the pants feeling.

i gotta pass emissions =(

edit: and my car was really loud with spintech mufflers but these borla mufflers really just tone it down.. it may be because instead of right under me its at the back of the car now too

AtlanticBlue99 · January 10th, 2007, 07:22 PM

eh- well, can't win 'em all... borla is high quality stuff, so you shouldnt be too disappointed.
