78mach1 · November 15th, 2007, 01:11 AM

hey i was just wonderin if you guys had any opinions on what mufflers/exhaust sounds best or just is a all around better exhaust?

Flowmaster 40's FTW thats what I would put on. Some people also like SLP loud mouths but those are really loud. Its all on your tastes

Sweet Mustang II BTW dont see many of them around

FM 40s!

The flows sound good but the drone gets old quick. I got rid of them for that reason alone and switched to a set of Bassanis. They sound way meaner than the flows and dont have that good awful drone.

baine21225 · November 15th, 2007, 08:55 AM

flow master or slp or one of each

BROKINARROW · November 15th, 2007, 08:56 AM

Fm Has The Best Sound I Personally Think

Flow master 40's sound bad as hell...(as in good)

jam77 · November 15th, 2007, 11:04 AM

flowmaster american thunder cat - back sounds sweet

dr.gonzo! · November 15th, 2007, 12:18 PM

I have bbk headers and catted x pipe with no mufflers, I passed a guy thinking about buying my car and he couldnt belive I didnt have mufflers, he said he didnt even hear me when I went around him in the parking lot(slow) ...then I got on it when I left

I think it sounds mean but you dont want to talk on your phone or drive more than 30 miles or stop with the windows up

Tony_90fox · November 15th, 2007, 12:35 PM

I like my 40s...

Spintech Pro streets are nice
SLP LM1 very nice!
Magnapacks with a H pipe are great, X gets too raspy for me

CAMN89GT · November 15th, 2007, 12:38 PM

<- Flowmaster 40 Series, Chamber 1

or....

Dynomax PRO Race Bullets

or....

Spintech Streets.

Tony_90fox · November 15th, 2007, 12:38 PM

Ahhh, how did i forget the Race bullets???

I love them too...

Goblin · November 15th, 2007, 12:52 PM

Flowmaster, Dynomax, JBA, Bassani, Magnaflow... etc, all good brands, all sound nice. SLP LM is too damn loud IMO. If you want smooth, equalized resonance, get a system with an X-pipe. If you want an "old-school" muscle car rasp.. the H-pipe midpipes are the way to go. Ive had both, and i like X-pipes a bit more. Its also nice that they flow better than H-pipes.

Rustbelt · November 15th, 2007, 01:26 PM

i have fm 40's 2.5 in uncatted 2.5in h-pype w/ fms headers. i love the sound i might switch to super 40's when these rust out.

also a long time ago someone posted a comparo of mufflers. it gave the hp, and db numbers. was good info. it may help you

k_h · November 15th, 2007, 01:56 PM

I like my spintech prostreets with the dr. gas x-pipe.

87foxbodylx · November 15th, 2007, 07:35 PM

Currently.... BBk shorties with FM 40's, X-off road pipe and not cats.

Tony_90fox · November 15th, 2007, 08:59 PM

Here is my MAC LTs, o/r H, and flows dumped...

78mach1 · November 15th, 2007, 11:17 PM

hey thanks guys these are all good
i used to like flowmaster 40`s but then my friend with a 89 fox bought them, after awhile i kinda got sick of them but i do like the slp loud mouths but i would probably get sick of the noise

i have a set of summits cheapo ones on now, i put them on just to get it street legal after i finished the engine but i just wanted some opinions on what is a good idea

thanks a bunch, keep them coming
