    I like that feature, it only seems quiet. Have someone else take off a little aggressive while you listen and you'll see that it is pretty loud, its just hard to hear since the exhaust is at the back of the car.
    I removed the foam going to the firewall, there are three I left two on and it sounds better, I tried it in several different ways and this way was best for me.

    Steve, I just remembered I wanted to tell you that as quiet as they are inside, they're still pumping engine compartment sound into the passenger cabin. Look at the hose coming off of your CAI. It runs right into the passenger compartment so you can hear the roar of your new 5.0! Isn't that hilarious? I think i'm going to remove mine if I ever do an aftermarket CAI.

    The new Stangs are really nice cars and are light years from foxbodies and SN95's. The car is so damn quiet it's hard to tell it's running sometimes and I kinda like it, I must be getting old! lol.

    It's just a new daily driver, not a race car like yours.

    Either way sounds like it's going to be getting the job done....~950 should be hauling the mail just fine.
    434 LSX with an F1R.

    combo should be good to 1100ish.. so 950 is really not a " max effort" build.. just want it Docile and reliable.

    I assume you're selling the LS3 just as a long block? I could be an interested party if you don't already have a line waiting on it to come out.

    motor is still fine.. but its at the edge of what a stock LS motor can make.. happened to have another motor laying around so will drop it in.

    the stocker is still fine.. but might as well sell it while i can pull some money out of it.

    I like the new front, personally. And the only thing I don't like about the new rear is the plastic inserts around the LP.
