I am sure MT must have gotten a good buy, perhaps Chris can elaborate.

I have the 4.6 CIA on my '03. It's real nice,fit perfectly.I think the question should be why the competition charges so much!!!

indeed^
There IS a reason they charge so much, just the name. Not knocking steeda, i <3 them and all (i want the tri-ax shifter =D ) but anything they put there name on increases in cost to everyone... which sux for everyone but hey thats just how it is. Places like UP rarely put there name on stuff and thats why the steedainterior pieces and such cost so much more... Kinda like AOL vs Netscape and all them, same webbernet! Why pay more? (We have AOL, but i dont even have it installed on my computer, lol, no need)

Probably because the price is so good it sells out! I'm one of those people who wants his moneys worth and I'm VERY happy with mine!

thats good, i dont know the exact amout of horses it adds, but driving the stock to the cold air, you can tell a difference. It also sounds great, i hope you enjoy yours as much as i do mine

Yeah i cant wait till i get an exhaust too. I am probably going to get a stock gt exhaust, i know it wont sound like the gt, but itll still be dual exhuast. I might get flowmaster delta 40's on them, but i dont know yet. Gotta save the money up first

yeah the bad thing though, is unless you pay good money for a nice dual-exhaust system on a v6, it'll sound crappy. very raspy and wont fool near anyone. But you will definitely feel a difference since stock v6's are strained w/ the single exhaust pipe. and even that one isnt high flow

well i am getting a flowmaster force II. its $375.00 off of jegs.com, i havethe money, but if i ordered it now, i coulden't install i for awhile, cause i dont have a lift kit. so i have to wait till my brother takes a ride to my uncle's house to get his Trans Am out of storage and then ask my uncle if he will install it for me. so that will be in about a month. CANT WAIT!!! but then i will have no money.....

yeah, i dont have a lift either, i was just going to jack my cars up some on my drive way and then take off my stock and put my aftermakets on. Thats the way my brother put his flowmaster and then a svt stock exhaust on his contour. BUt it would probably be better to get a lift to do stuff under my car, but i dont know anyone that has one.

I know i woudlnt fool anyone with my duals, but it would look better and possibly, just maybe, sound better. Its just i need a loud exhaust, i was driving a 1973 mustang for a while, but now im working on it, and it sounded loud, when i went to hang out with friends they were like i heard you coming, but now its so quiet i need some loudness. But do you all think adding the dual exhuast to my car will add the smallest amount of horsepower to it? I dont really know, i know the flowmasters or what ever exhuast i get wont. Does anyone know?

My borla stainless exhaust owns anything Dronemaster has ever produced, chambered mufflers are much more restrictive than any other straight through type muffler, and straight through mufflers don't drone at cruising speeds so it's quite in the cab, I've been the dronemaster route before and never again.

I ordered the same cold air intake for my car on March 29, and they contacted me saying they were out of stock as well but they received my payment and said as soon as their order was in then they'd ship it out, so for the people that have it on their car...did you notice any difference in power?? and does it make any more sound under full throttle?
