Is that a 3.0 with 4.6 exhaust (from your signature pic)? I have a 3.0 with 4.6 exhaust and an aFe cold air intake as well. It was a good sound upgrade but I do wish for a teensy bit more noise still! Someday I'll get a wild hair and order some headers or replace the center muffler with an X-pipe.

you bet it is, yeah mine sounds nice even with the xpipe it's great (no drone and not really noticeable still), I still want to try those 4in round magnaflow mufflers another user back in the day did on here to get that extra rumble

All you need to do is delete the centre resonator, perfect sound.

for the V8's yes, for the 3.0 I don't think it will be any better than xpipe and from my understanding xpipe is better flow for the car

I spent $100 on a new e-brake boot for my car. Now I have a brand new shifter boot and E-brake boot and the interior is looking great. One thing I really appreciate about this car is that it cleans up really good at 21 years old. The interior just looks really nice still.

So my leaks from being gone....

Rebooting needed on front CV's.

Transmission oil pan gasket leaking.

PS pump connector leaking.

Leak starting to show on reservoir at the seam.

The White Witch definitely has abandonment issues https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...6cae172e15.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...49a40246bc.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...8ced2e5238.jpg

So those spring clips sit vertically? Thx for the pics. Edit: Oh I think I see just a small part of the spring just below the hole? I see what looks like another spring clip sitting vertically?
