Well, I finally did it. After a year and a half of deliberating between H, X, and Prochamber I made my mind up Saturday morning. It all happened rather hastily. I have been really considering trading in or selling the stang, but after learning that its value is even lower than it should be due to the 2005 on its way, I decided to keep her and pay her off the next three years. So, I woke up Saturday and said, "screw it!, where's the phone book!!!?".
I called Steeda who were closing so they told me to call Mustang Specialties in Pompano Beach, FL. They had the mils and told me the north east distributor for Mac was right down the street. I called them, they were closed, but the owner's secretary gave me his number, and he agreed to meet me there to sell me the mid pipe. ( pretty cool of him). Turns out he's the charter president of Trapeze, a swingers club down here~!(ok?)
Anyway, I get back to Davie and head over to Weston Meineke, who installed my springs and flowmasters and have it installed. It took a little under an hour.
Review: The sound is EXACTLY what I was looking for! I mean, at idle you can barely tell it has an O/R pipe, but at WOT, holy ****! I scared the hell out of some lady next to me at a red light when I wasn't really driving too agressively. The exhaust note with the Flows is nice. It actually sounds just like Mac's statement: " H and X combined". She purrs like a cat when crusiing, and is loud like an X when getting on it. I am completely and totally satisfied and as someone who suffers from buyer's remourse when purchasing a damn CD, that's saying something. No regrets here!
Issue: This morning my SES light came on after putting 87 miles on the new pipe. I purchased the good Mils which originated from Dallas Mustang ( $59).
My question is, should I remove the ground from the battery to clear the code? I thought since I had mils, it would never come on, but I remember reading some posts of guys who had this same thing happen. What is the best course of action?
Cons of Pipe: The only thing I don't feel is any S.O.T.P gains in power. If anything she feels a little sluggish at times. I plan to get 4.10's soon to compensate, but how do you know if you have any exhaust leaks? What sound or pattern of behavior can you listen/watch for?
Overall, I am happy with the ProChamber and would reccomend it to anyone who is on the fence regarding which mid pipe to spend your hard earned dollars on. Two thumbs up here! :thumbsup:
