Zero complaints with my Gibson kit. Sounds fantastic at all RPM’s. Not worried about rust since it has a lifetime warranty. The MRT stuff is nice, too. Had the H-pipe briefly and it had a nice bump in sound with the stock mufflers.

Yep, saw that. Not holding my breath for results.

It’s been brought up many times: get the PIU shocks. They are a perfect replacement for the ST versions and aren’t expensive at all. With the matching thicker sway bar, it’s a great combo to cut down on the under-steer.

I have a set of stock mufflers I removed when swapping in the Gibson axle-back - have been tempted to cut one open out of curiosity before they get scrapped. If I do it, I’ll snap some pictures. On that note, the Gibson kit has an amazing sound and is a fantastic bang-for-the-buck at around...

Correct - just a single part number. Steeda is probably using the subframe part number when ordering to verify they fit the appropriate version. Just CYA on their part.

These might help:

I had asked Brad (sgt1411, off the top of my head) if he could have scored some of that info since he is part of the police advisory board, but never followed up. If I recall, he did confirm additional “stiffness” with the dampers, coming from a Ford Engineer. EDIT: Here was a quote from him in...

Look in the post of mine. All the info is in there.

I’ve put over 1,000 miles (maybe closer to 2,000) on my rear combo of the PIU shocks and sway bar, including towing my boat a bunch. From a manual compression of both pairs, it definitely seemed as if the PIU units were much stiffer. After driving with them and feeling the firmer ride, it seems...

The bushings look fine - no warping or decay. I cleaned them up a bit and they’re in need of grease, but they can be easily re-used. Brackets and bolts are, of course, on the rusty side.

It does, but all the rest of my chassis and suspension looks fine. This is just poor quality by Steeda.

Lowering it “more” is not always the best option, especially if it’s only for looks. You have to find a happy medium between ride height and what the suspension can handle. Not holding my breath on aftermarket dampers. I was initially hoping for Bilstein, but have heard nothing (have them on...

The bushings look fine - just a bit grungy from the grease (they are poly and most likely a standard Energy Suspension offering). I double-check in a bit and snap another pic or two.

I had chatted with a rep at Eibach a year or so back about springs, and they did just come out with them for the ST. I was close to going with Steeda, but after the bad experience with my rear sway bar rusting out, decided to put this project on hold. On my ‘03 Cobra, I have the Eibach-sourced...

Still have this. Local buyer seems to have disappeared. It’ll go off to eBay soon.

No. They will replace the mediocre pipes with the same mediocre pipes. The only option to fix the rattle is to go aftermarket or have new flex pipes welded in (the Walker 51110 is the one for the OE pipes). Just had mine done and the difference is night and day. Just too bad the main welder was...

That’s a very early system from the initial production run. They are all dual inlet/outlet (at the resonator, obviously) from somewhere after the beginning of ‘20.

I thought one I saw did, but then again, wast just kicking that off the top of my head.

A PIU 255/60-18 tire (off the top of my head) is 30” compared to about 30.75” for the 275/45-21 ST wheel/tire.

You are obviously not paying attention. The PIU shocks are clearly listed: LB5Z-18125-J. Those are not the same p/n‘s for the ST. Even in the picture, the engineering numbers are also different. Same goes for the struts. If the PIU and ST shared the same dampers, the part numbers and engineering...
