equipe2500's 1999 Mercury Cougar .The intake is an Bomz Racing SRI off of ebay, now with a K&N on the end (pic's are with the Bomz airfilter) I just recently put on a Custom Cougars intake extention which puts the filter element in the front bumper/ fender region so it can breat that cool air from outside.

equipe2500's 1999 Mercury Cougar Here is a picture of the headers since the engine bay is too tight, I can't get a picture of them on the car lol (this isn't the same set but one just like them, I also don't have th Y-pipe in this pic)

equipe2500's 1999 Mercury Cougar The ASP underdrive pully which gave me 21% less reduction, made a much smoother exceleration too. (the little shiney wheel)

Here are some shots of the SVT install..

equipe2500's 1999 Mercury Cougar the simple green bath for the lower manifold. Still had the scrub all the crap off of that.

equipe2500's 1999 Mercury Cougar The SVT throttle body, already pretty clean.

equipe2500's 1999 Mercury Cougar The dirty upper manifold, waiting to be cleaned.

I didn't bother taking picutres of the actual install, didn't want to get my camera as dirty like everything else.

Here is a before and after picture of my engine bay with the SVT manifold on and CAI.

And some more engine bay shots with my cold air extention, which puts my filter element behind my drivers side for light.

 Here are a couple videos of exhaust clips too. These were done when I had just intake and my exhaust done. All the video's done were on closed roads.

In car: 20-110km/h in the rain.

And the car at idle/reving

Here is an exhaust clip as it sits today. There is some fly-by's etc. in this clip.

Install was very straight forward. There's a noticeable difference definately between the stock brakes and the FSVT brakes. There's more solidity when I brake now. My R1 rotors were SOOO warped. It felt like someone taking a jackhammer to the front of my car when braking, lol. Being young sucks though, I want to do so much to my Cougar but nearly all young people are broke! It's a slowwww progress with me, money, and the Cougar. lol
