    If Im doing Cams, should I add studs?

    I have a 2012 gt500, and Im finally adding cams. Some people are telling me to do studs, and others are saying stock is ok. I looked up studs at american muscle, and it says 07-11. Did something change in 2012? The car sits at 790rwhp now before I add anything else. Thanks for the help.

    Which catback??

    Im going to be buying Borla ATAK mufflers for my car. Should I replace my over axel pipes as well? The only thing wrong with my Ford pipes are that the Pypes mufflers had to be welded on. With that being said, the brand new Borla axelbacks would have to be welded on as well. Is welding a bad...
