maybe it was the setup or choice of spring on the lowered 99 mustang i rode in. thanks for the tips. i will consider it. the next thing on my agenda is dual exhaust & a chin spoiler. i'm trying to find some sound clips of different v6 with dual. i heard one clip posted on this board. it didn't sound too bad, but the pitch was higher than i would like. i don't want to sound like the burners

the ride couldve been horrible cause he was using either stock shocks/struts or had his aftermarket shocks/struts blown....from what i hear...bilstien and some sort of lowering spring are MUCH better than stock

Also.. for me it was much more impressive "in person" when I lowered my car than pics I looked at on the internet. Once you see the stance first hand, you have a new appreciation for the difference it makes. Now when I see lowered cars on the boards, I can appreciate the difference in them.

The car will also "feel" different to you. Much more sporty and fun to drive. I still have the stock shocks but I only have 19,000 mi on my car so they ride "ok". Not great.. but "ok". I do feel feel the potholes more than I used to. I'll eventually upgrade shocks when the stockers show enough wear.

ahh glad to have a fellow 04 six on the boards...is it the 3.9L?

Ya i would suggest the H&R super sport springs...i have them on mine and they rock! and ride better than stock.

But i would suggest some tint, blackout taillights, dual exhaust (mac, flowmaster, or magnaflow), and a chin!
