Finally!!!
So just to let everyone know... The problem with my car's massive power loss and recent Misfiring is now fixed!
Turns out it was clogged cats the whole time.
Now she's running amazing and she's loud as hell LOL
I'm so excited and glad to be driving a mustang again!

Must have been a hair ball if the cat was clogged!
Nice to hear the car's all better!

So did you just hack off the old catalytic convertors or replace them with high flow ones?

Right now she's cat-less
I'm saving up for high flow cats but we had to get the bad ones off ASAP

Yeah bad cats can really bog down a car. Did the car ever have any weird smells from exhaust? How did you find out it was the cats?
Does it generate a check engine light without the cats?
It probably has way more power now, just makes it way harder to pass emmisions.

Glad to hear you got that figured out. I wondered what happened to you. Hadn't seen you post up here in quite a while! Nice to see you got things fixed and you are rolling loud and proud again!

Kyra, I'm glad that I was able to help out Travis with the problem that the car was having. Did you do the spark plugs & wires yet? If not, get those changed also & then the car will be even better. Glad to hear the car is running good.

that sucks doesnt take much to add up -- you could ask how much to buy back and part out

I would but it's not worth it.. I had so many problems with that car, which is why I hardly made it to any events

Oh yeah.. I'm perfectly fine. Not a scratch or even a bruise. Airbags didn't even deploy...
