if you worried about warranty.... just take out the middle or back box... no performance increase but sound will be better... otherwise hollow out the cat and use the mini-cat to fool the sensor. ford mechanics wont know the difference.

You do know that cars contribute a VERY small portion of global warming? Vehicle owners are just easier targets than larger corporates and industrial companies...

remove your resonator box off the side of the air box, also adds a nice growl

:D Has anyone done this? How loud is it? :lol:

I believe jackpot$$$ has done it and it sounds quite cool.

JP was this removed when I drove your car?


no dude, dont think so :?

It sounds very kewl now and within limits, does not have the drone assosciated with zhorst mods on the highway and idles quiet. But when you give it a blip it purrs and splutters real nice, a lot more so than the standard 5 potters! ;)

but i also have DP/Decat.
