your tellin me ..im working for 11 bucks an hour and i can afford GT insurance what hes saying just doesnt add up at all like corey said if i can afford a GT with where i work and he has all the $ he claims he can def afford it

Look guys im only 17 i live with parents and what my parents says goes, and yes i have all this money but at 17 you cant afford almost 6000 dollars a year on insurance ot maybe higher, and one thing i can barley make ends meet with a V6. WHen the car was purchased i didnt have all this money. On top of all these things i work at a little ceasars pizza place in opelika making like 5.65 an hour, And i can explain myself the only reason i want too spend 1800 dollars on a pair of long tube headears from bassani is im trying to be like my father and have all the same things on my car that he has on his car, and yes i know i just need to quit blowing smoke, BUt i can tell you now that the car was messed up due to running into high waters the water got into the motor throught the air intake above the passenger side wheel and it sucked it into the motor, It has been told to me that the motor was fine jsut needed to be given time to dry out(stupid guy at the place where they fix cars) ok i gave the car time to dry out and started it then the engine blew. I have been told by the guy at Freeway Ford on box road in columbus GA where my car is at now getting the motor done, that the reason the motor blew was because when i started the car it sucked all the remaining water from the air intake that was still there and it got into the place where the pistons and connecting rods where and it snapped the number 1 conencting rod down by the joint, and it bent the rest, i know because i have seen them ( no pictures thought becasue i dont have a digital camera ). Yes i was telling the truth about the 8.8 rear end, and all the other stuff that is already on my car cause i bought it that way, the only thing i added to the car was the rims, and the custom exhaust for the car which is a piece of shi*. I can tell you only the things that the guy once i get the car from the shop that im taking it too wants too do to the car, its not done ( as a matter of fact he could be lieing i dont know ). I come in here to learn and i was stupid and just wasnt listening. So i will start listening and then go from there once i start getting the car put togther i will go out and buy a digital camera and get pictures of the car. BUt in the mean time im trying to get ideas on what too do with the car, aswell as i have ideas of own i.e supercharger, new exhaust, sct chip, a tune, and port polish for the time being until i get better information from yall as too what i can get done with my car. thank you sorry for the trouble i have caused.

Ok back to the topic. I know for a fact that bassani makes ST headears for my car, and my dad has a bassani X-pipe that he has on his mach one, will this x-pipe come some how too fit my car, and if it does what kind of pipes should i run from the x-pipe to the rear of the car to get a pretty good loud rumble.

Do you have any links to the particular x-pipe so we can look at it?

More than likely any x pipe you buy will have to be custom fabricated to fit your headers and cat-back

mustang tuning has an X pipe for the v6 but it MUST be used with a GT catback

KyleUSAF · 06-29-2005, 10:17 PM

the pipes really won't make a big difference in the sound, just the mufflers. To fit up an x-pipe to your car, I'd have an exhaust shop weld up you x with your headers (or bolt them up if they can be) and weld the pipes from the x back (along with mufflers of course).

btw: all of us are very happy to offer you our best knowledge of anything you ask, I think some people were just kinda shocked and confused about some earlier stuff

CCstang2004 · 06-29-2005, 10:35 PM

alrite let me try and search to find this X-pipe cause its on my dad car right now and he has a mach1 but he is saying that if we can get bassani heads then it will/should fit up. but i will post the site in just a few minutes let me find it

CCstang2004 · 06-29-2005, 10:50 PM

I couldnt find the headears for some reason i lost that site.

Ask Dark02Pony to link you to the X-Pipe he mentioned above.

You have to use that one.

If you use the one he said you can then use the Bassani Cat Back you linked to above. Make sure you get the same year as your car for a GT.

Dark02Pony · 06-30-2005, 01:25 AM

im right on it...
