www.rpm-mustang.com they have the best price on LT headers and h-pipes i've seen, what state do u live in? and ru guna go catless or Catted? it's guna be kinda expensive if you go with the LT headers and catted H-pipe, along with the Spintech Dual Side Exit... without installation it's guna cost you over 1000 bucks... I got the catback for xmas, and I'll work on gettin the Headers this summer....

I'm gonna completly disagree on this. I think he should get high flow cats they rob a couple ponies. The v6's sound soo much better with cats. I will admit i have heard mac lt's with h-pipe and mac catback and it sounds great.

without an LT setup, catless exhaust on a v6 will sound terrible at high RPMs.

wait and get LT's, and ideally a port and polish
