Thinking about getting some nitrous for it. Probably stay around a 100 shot

Should be picking up a set of staggered 19" gloss black am rtr replicas and a lethal offroad h pipe in the next week or 2

Also considering ordering gloss black roof decal and gloss black laguna seca style stripes(although I'm thinking about the rtr stripes cause the wheels)

You should do a converter first.

DId you go with the Lethal ORH? How's the sound with the stock mufflers still in place?

Ahh. Makes sense.

I'm sure I could run it without a tune but lethal says it runs rich doing that. I read it as your mpg will go to shit, so I didn't wanna be getting like 13 mpg on the trip back from Houston. The 20.4ish I got both ways is low enough

Yeah, don't do it. It will just foul your 02's and smell/run like crap. It's not going to make that much of a difference that it can't wait until you have time to do it properly. I've got the Lethal H as well. It sounds "okay", but then again I'm not a big fan of how these new 5.0's sound to begin with. The Hpipe/Gt500's was the closest I could get to the classic Mustang sound.

I'm hoping my MRT midpipe and the boss side pipes will make that as best I can

You'll be fine as long as you don't sit in a lot of bumper to bumper traffic.

Luckily there isn't much over here. I don't smell much, of hardly any now. I have to be sitting for a few minutes already.

But I'm after the same sound that you are.

That will change with the pipes coming out of the sides by your door rather than the rear bumper.
