Okay guys i have a 2004 3.9 which i guess is really a 3.8, anyways i have a magna flow cat back. now i wanna get MAC long tubes and MAC H pipe. Has anyone heard what the car sounds like in person? i went on youtube, there wasnt any witht that same set up, plus in person sounds better or worse than camra. So wanted your opinions on...

its dec, the only person I know with this set up is Chris. Kyle knows a guy with this set up, but its supercharged. In all honesty its only going to give a more full sound to what you have already.

[focus0frenzy1]

what would you suggest me spending an = amount of money on as far as a mod?

[04mustang232]

at 3.9 isnt a 3.8 btw, but i dont understand why they changed it.

As for a good mod, gears/tloc are pretty popular. They are the best bang for your buck.

4:10s for auto, 3:73 for 5 speed.

yea this dick i was going to to buy a 8.8 off of his totalled 99. but when i had the money he wouldnt answer, and then right after id come back from a cruise, vacation or something he would call. I dont get it, its my friends good buddy, aswell as another friends boyfriend. how much as 8.8's usually. id only get that beause i might as well spend the little extra now, than getting a traction lock not knowing what kinda power i will eventually end with

[04mustang232]

well, the 7.5 can usually handle a decent amount of power, and ive only ever seen a handful of v6s that really need an 8.8. CT is running big numbers under his build 7.5 soooo if you wanted to hold off on an 8.8, you can.

i figure ill be fine cuz im not gonna be makin much more than around 300hp so mine just has a tlok in it and thas all ima do bout it.

[focus0frenzy1]

how much is a t-lock and how hard is it to install? I want the long tubes and H pipe though. then i dunno i might get a stereo. what other bolt ons will give sufficient power and are under about 500?

[focus0frenzy1]

yes

[supercharged421]

I deff. wouldnt get an H pipe

hold on and ill link some things.
you need to go with an x pipe

[supercharged421]

unless youve got some work done to your v6...an H pipe is not going to sound to great. I know this! lol but ive seen this set up done with this X pipe and it actually sounds pretty decent! but I would also get headers if you went with this...

If you're going to stay N/A, a UDP will definately help, according to my SOTP dyno. Not expensive, or hard to do.

xpipes will sound like shit. hpipe with flowmasters it prolly the best way to go, our cars like to get raspy up top and the xpipe likes to make that rasp louder. the hpipe will give it a slightly deeper tone.
