Air silencer
SanPedroMach and GotdaBlue1,

air intake silencer
I was under the impression that the "silencer" in the fender was also pulling some cool air into the air flow and not just silencing. Is that not the case?

muffler choice?
I am just going to start with mufflers on '04 Mach. Does anyone have any they really like or really hate? I don't want something too loud. Does anyone have Bassani? I've heard good things about them....

Thanks for the detailed info. One more question. Why not just get a muffler, why change out so much of the piping under the car? Isn't the muffler what makes all the difference? :gears:
