First Pics of my 99 3.0
What's up everyone.
I've been a member for awhile but this is my first time posting pics.
Hope I did it right.
I've got AEM CAI, Megan Headers, Helix TB Spacer, and a Flex-a-Lite Tranny Cooler.
My car's best 1/8th mile time was 10.258 @71mph.
I dyno'd it after I got the intake and it said that I had 167 whp and 157 tq.
Getting a 14815 Magnaflow muffler and custom mid-pipe next week.
Let me know what you think. Thanks!

Off to a good start, did you have to do anything special for the megan headers? I have the helix too, how do you like it? Good call on the tranny cooler too. Off to a good start like I said, lookin clean, engine bay needs a little shine I love where you mounted the tranny cooler.

Yeah. The Headers need to bent to fit. I didn't know that and the shop I went to put them on anyway. They are rubbing against the cross member. They are ok though the flex pipes are on both sides of the c/m so there is room for flex. The T/B spacer is tight. It really does sound like a turbo though. The cooler really does look good there. it's up against one of the horns though but I use my horn on a yearly basis so I don't care. Thanks for the Props!

The Magnaflow will sound fantastic once you put it on. My Ack sounds awesome now that I put mine on.
And I grew up in Plano.

Id say you should find a muffler shop that'll do mandrel piping from the cat-back for anywhere between $150-$200.
You can upgrade to 2.5" piping or stick with 2.25". I hear plenty of opinions both ways but I stuck with 2.25 for now. I just had the axleback replaced and once I get my headers installed and a new hi-flow cat, I might switch to 2.5". We'll see.

Well I got the muffler in and they sent me the wrong one.
I ordered Magnaflow # 14815 and they sent me 14851.
Stupid mistake but believable. I guess I'll get it next week.
I'll post the quotes I get from the Muff shops.
