Default Good prices for these installs?

Ok i have recently ordered alot of body parts and i want to see if you guys think im getting a good price for the installs.

2005-09 Mustang Roush 1/4 Window Louver Kit - Pre Painted- $5

2005-09 Mustang Roush White Windsheild Decal- Free

2005-09 Mustang GT Roush Body Kit - Pre Painted- $200

275/40/18 Cooper ZEON 2XS Tire- Balanced for $10 a wheel, and installed for free
2005-08 Mustang GT Roush Trak Pak 18x10 Forged Painted Wheel

2005-09 Mustang Roush Cast Exhaust Tip (RH)-
2005-08 Mustang Roush Cast Exhaust Tip (LH)-
$20 a tip because they have to do quite a bit of modifications to the pypes exhaust to get it to fit

2005-08 Mustang Steeda Sport Springs- $150

5% window tint/ + Stripping old tint- $200



Does this all seem like fair prices, this is also mostlikley the best autoshop in the state of indiana.

Honestly, it seems like you are ripping them off with those prices. That sounds like one heck of a deal!!! And i love the Roush body kit, has to be my favorite S197 one

Doesn't that hurt your ears?


And are you going to do performance mods after you finish with all the body work?

as for hurting my ears, well lets just say i have to keep the bass on 1/10 it also has an off switch for the sub i cant stand it all the time, the only time i turn it all the way up is when im out of the car. But i really have gotten used to the really loud sound, the first time i heard it i just about **** myself. i was laughing so hard when i saw the trunk pop open from the sub.

As for performance mods, im actually talking with them right now, they said for right around $1000 they would be happy to start building a twin turbo set up on the car, of course id have to pay for the parts. That would start right around feburary. But it would pay off, because they said they could pull an estimated 500 rwhp through it, but i would also need to get a 8.8 rear end a drive shaft, and some other supporting mods. But i do believe i am going to do that in the near future.

I'd go for everything but the tint.

I have to agree that it sounds like you're ripping them off. Places around here are charging $600 (parts included) just for Eibach lowering springs. $150 install plus $200-250 parts is a steal.

Why are you changing your exhaust tips? Is there something wrong with the Pypes ones?

Tell me more about your subwoofer. I'm assuming that you made a typo in saying that its putting out 10,000 watts...

i ordered all the parts, that is just for the installs, and im changing the tips of the pypes exhaust because the roush rear facias that comes with the bodykit has the square exhaust exits, so circular tips coming out of that would look like complete ****. I really want the %5 window tint i think it would just finish off the car, all white with real dark windows looks sick in my opinion

Ah, now I understand about the tips. That should have dawned on me before...

What size wire are you running with that bass setup? If it is indeed 10,000 watts peak then you're pulling close to 700 amps at peak. Thats a lot.

10,000 watts peak would mean somewhere around 2,000-2,500 watts RMS. With that kind of power, i'd recommend upgrading to at least a 2 gauge wire if not a #1. Otherwise you might end up with adverse side effects like the wires heating up or burning and/or your amps failing.

You'll also never see the full potential of that kind of power without proper wiring. Chances are, though, that you won't see peak numbers, even with 2 batteries powering it. I believe that the cranking amps for a car battery are something like 100, which would probably be its highest output. At that rate you're looking at needing at least 4-5 batteries to see peak numbers.

What size fuse are you running on your 4 gauge power wire?

for 1 your amp wiring is way way too small im not familiar with that amp but i do know on my kicker 2500.1 i had to run a minimum of 0 gauge and that was with a true 2500 rms amp ( actually 2729 tested ) , secondly id start looking into capacitors there's no way they are getting their full potential ( if really that high rms ) just with 2 batteries , also the fuses on the amp will tell you what it it really pushes because only so many watts can be pushed through a fuse 15amp=xx 30amp=zz ect. , i used to do installs for a good while and i can tell you your best bet for powering options would be to go with kinetic batteries and run a large tsunami cap also upgrade all the 4g to 0 or better just my 2cents
