Awesome car! I can't wait to see what happens with the Aurora now that you have this car. Also, it'* good to see new mufflers being tried out. It'* not as offensive sounding as a couple of Magnaflows, but it definitely does the job. Nice find!

I love the Magnaflows attached to my Northstar powertrain. This Mustang exhaust is really nice because its quiet but it gets the job done. You know it has some kind of exhaust system as the car rumble passes ya Kudos to the previous owner.

The plan for the Aurora is get my nagging fuel delivery issue fixed. The short term is easy, detail, take the winter tires off, divert some money for much needed rust repair and get the PCM programed. When/if the funds allow I'll be installing the crate Shelby 4.0 320bhp engine (based on availability and life of my current engine). Perhaps the PCM program and relief of general daily driving with be a benefit to the engine?

Andrew, not sure on the swoops. I like the GTP rims. They look better on the Aurora anyway.

Heh, I keep getting reminded its not MY car...its hers

Swoops aren't good on every car, hell, they're not good on most IMO...

Don't move them.

Get a PCM in that bad boy, and get to it

To clarify, I meant "offensive" in the best possible way. When a couple Magnaflow mufflers scream by you, you feel offended to the core by the awesomeness. And it'* good awesomeness. This makes probably no sense, but at least now you are aware of what I meant.

The rims on the GTP fit it so well. Please don't replace them because they really nicely work with the body lines, colors, and style of the car. Also, the swoopies look excellent on your Aurora.

Looking good and sounding good Jim. Did the exhaust pop a bit when Angie let off it in the first vid?

As for the swoopies, the optional GTP rims a really nice. Here'* a pic of the wife ride.
