ok-got the flowmaster catback on my 99 cobra, need suggestions on what mid pipe to go with. also how to fool computer into not throwing check engine light. do I need the mils?how many.looking for biggest gains. goal is the 12s next summer with other mods and 4.10s.thanks
Offroad h or a mac prochamber will sound sweet with the flows.
Easiest way is to turn off the light with a dyno tune. Can also correct for the gears that way too. I wouldn't spend money on the mil elims if you plan on tuning the car.

well, if you're not going to get a tune, I have a set of new mil's you could get pretty
cheap if you want. Just let me know.

i had a pro chamber with flows for a while and it didnt sound bad at all.... i was in love with it until i heard the sound of my car with mac prochamber with a mac catback....

And here is a dyno vid... same setup... Man i dont miss having stock gears in my car after watching this video
Buy one from a mail order place like Amazon or LaSota Racing. I used LaSota and he gets a great tune from your datalogs. I think if you buy the tuner from them, you get tunes for life. I bought my SCT Xcal2 used for less than $200 and 90 days worth of tunes was $50. It's either that or pay $80 for mils that don't do squat.
I think most midpipes will sound good with Flows. Mac o/r H, Prochamber, and UPR o/r X are all good choices.
I paid $500 for my SCT x2 and dyno tune from VMP. I had it done during a car meet and he brought his portable dyno. Check your local shops for dyno days and see if they are doing deals then.

im pretty sure the o/r xpipe on mine is a bbk (on the car when i bought it so not 100%) but that with my magnaflow catback i like it alot loud enough to set off some overly sensitive car alarms when i crank it. as far as mil eliminators they just didnt work for me light would not go away so just picked up a used sct xcal2 and went to the dyno shop that had sct stuff paid $200 for them to do a couple custom tunes on the dyno.
I guess it boils down to cash. If he can't afford the tuner and or some dyno time, maybe the mils would be what the doctor ordered. They do work. Again, if you want, mine are brand new for $45
