New!! Kook's Header and X Pipe Review!!!

[Logan]

Wow, I don't think I've ever been hounded to get something done as much as I did this review! That's a good thing I think!!

Kook's has really stepped up to the plate and has a heck of an impressive product on their hands, I heartily predict they'll sell quite a few systems, of that, there can be no doubt.

If you aren't running mid-length headers, then you need to seriously consider it.

You da ****zle, ma nizzle...

Few tiny questions:

What size (including thread type) are the studs / new header bolts??? I need to go buy all the little doo-dad parts prior to starting this project. I'm thinking of getting a set of ARP header bolts and just replacing all the studs. Think that sounds like a worthwhile plan?? If I do go that route, should I go with the black oxide fasteners, or the stainless fasteners? I don't know if there's a difference in applications or simply looks.

How many studs did you actually swap out?

Well, ... I heard Logan's new exhaust tonight. All I can say is: WOW! It sounds freakin' great! A nice deep rumble at idle, and at WOT, .... Holy $h!t!!!!

Ya know, I wasn't thinking about doing anything to my exhaust, now I am! :up:

Tom's right. It was a cool sound and the parking lot exit was impressive as well...Hello (and goodbye) Christmas bonus money...

[deerejoe]

It sounds as though I might need a new exhaust system.
All I've done to date is swap mufflers...all else is OEM.

The sound I'm getting is not what I want to hear at any engine speed.
I don't want 'crackle's' nor pop...had enough (loud) pipes to last me awhile...just want deep, throaty sounds...like a big engine sounds.

I really don't want to invest too much in this car for several reasons...but a few coins on the 'rumble' could be justified.

Where would one have to go for custom exhaust service??
(Kook's or whom ever)

[Logan]

There are usually custom exhaust shops in most major centers, contact your local mustang club for preferred local shops...

Guy I use is a hole-in-the-wall type shop, but he's a wizard with a torch. :)

The equipment is the easy part, getting the right guy for the install is almost more important!

[jgc61sr2002]

Logan - You sure got that right. Installation is the most important part.

Anyone know where Logan's write up has gone?

[Logan]

It's salvageable, the content will exist in the template content repository in the admin panel, but I don't have access, so someone else will have to retrieve it...

[CRUZTAKER]

Ha!

He still visits the site.

You maynard!!!!:P

OK Someone else, please either make Logan and Admin, or retrieve the write up.

It should be in the Garage anyway as a sticky!

Is this it?

Kooks is a subforum of Reinhart Automotive

[Logan]

No. In the Admin panel, in the templates section, there should be a custom template called kooks or something similar, which if you open it, will contain the complete installation write-up of the Kooks...

[RCSignals]

I guess Mary didn't find it. Maybe after MV, unless Logan kept it somewhere on his computer?

[MM03MOK]

No kooks.php, nothing found under Styles and Templates, through Search in Templates.

[RCSignals]

Thanks for looking Mary. Maybe Logan can find a copy of it on his computer?

or, anyone else....Did someone make a copy of the write up?

[Logan]

Did you search for the word "kooks"?

I know it's there... :)

[FordNut]

Wow, guess what I found on my computer???

I had copied/pasted Logan's original instructions, then Cyclone03's updates, BillyGMan's comments, Zack's findings, and other information learned from various installations into a word document!

It is in reverse chronological order, but a lot of good info can be found in it if anybody wants it let me know.

[Logan]

Uh... Can I get a copy? :)

[FordNut]

Uh... Can I get a copy? :)

Yep, PM me with the email addy you want it sent to.

[MM03MOK]

Did you search for the word "kooks"?

Yes, I did......as well as reviewing all the custom templates, in case it was called something else.
