I didnt say there was anything wrong with an SLP setup I just say that because SLP was a camaro based company till they stopped making them and now they wanna use they same designes on mustangs so they dont go out of business. They dont have that nice rumble like what you want with a mustang. Its just frickin loud!

You see, now the truth be told that jeredan is a "Mustang Loyalist". If it was not originally made for a Mustang, then he won't use it.- LOL

I guess you will have to stop using tires then too because you will find those on a Honda.

I HONESTLY want to beg to differ. Granted with just the SLP 1 or even 2 catback on stock exhaust, it is ignorantly loud. But with the right components, I think it sounds awesome, and thats talking from a first hand experience.

I have not heard theyre Loudmouth 2 chambered setup. Maybe theyre attempt at a real mustang muffler. Maybe a good thing for SLP.....

theres mine, it's all over the forum, maybe you've seen it, maybe you haven't.

I've spent good money and a lot of time researching exhausts, and I'm more than satisfied with that.

And if you say SLP is for camaros

why cant someone say that nitrous is used for ricers, since thats where it all started and advanced from. No denying in that statement.

Where did you hear that one? I can remember being in my first nitrous car when I was about ten years old (nearly 30 years ago). It was my cousins Pontiac. Nitrous has been around for many, many years. In fact, it got it first start in airplanes and not in cars. It was only the 2 Fast 2 Furious movies that made nitrous popular with the kids, but nitrous is older then plastic. Sorry to tell ya, but nitrous was used all through the muscle car years before anyone new what rice was.

just remember NX is the only kit thats a "true kit" lol.

03gtmustang made 150hp on 100pills becuase his cams are more efficent and make the 100shot more powerfull. Thats why they make N20 specific cams cause you can run less nitrous and make more power, and i heard those vt2's loved nitrous but man thats some great gains.

Just go with the venom and a bottle warmer you will not regret it, If you need any help installing ask me i will help, But for what you want to do venom is the choice, otherwise if you went with nx you would have to buy all the saftey equipment and that would rack up a lot of dough

LOL, thats some good reading! for the guy who wanted to know about heater prices...I got my NX heater for $119 from JEGS. I also saw a NOS heater for $45ish from either JEGS or Summit. I can't remember. I didn't like my NOS heater at all when I had one on my bike. Thats why I went with NX

Stuff like that happens. I got my NX wet kit for $320 and hits the hardest on the market.

The recluse is a bit different....I looked into that awhile ago. But its not worth it because it will end up costing you more after getting a 10lb bottle and the warmer thats a extra $200 if not more.

how do you know it hits the hardest on the market? how many different cars with different kits have you ridden in?

Here is a FYI for all, most of these nitrous companys all buy there solinoids fromt he same place so dont think they are different, they arent.

The only difference is the bottle, withc is REALLy small, you can get a bottle heater for it but its not worth it cuz ytou will have to fill it upp alll the time, and you can use a bigger bottle witgh the recluse but bottles are expensive also
