exhaust for my 98 gt mustang help


this topic may be too redundent, but im still gonna ask because i need opionions. I am thinking about installing a Magnaflow Stainless Steel Exhaust MagnaPack Catback. my question is this, i know probably having this on will pass emissions. Is it easy to take off and put the stock catbacks? also bolting this exhasut system hurt the performance or sound? need your help guys!

a cat back won't affect your emissions.

it's perfectly fine to get tested with it on.

and it won't hurt your performance or sound.

and yes. it's very easy to install a cat back.

Exhaust is a cheap way to make u car seem like she's got some balls, even if she don't.

Emission's aren't going to be a problem one bit. While ur down there u should also think about Hi-Flow catyltic converters, or an off road pipe.(U may have emission issue's going catless) I found an exhaust that fits my needs, and for under 650 bux shipped to my door. Hi Flow Catt'd X Pipe and Cat-back mind u, not just both.

the difference in sound is 10x greater with a midpipe. Especially if u have a catback on there. When i put flows on my old 5.0 i was like "this is nice.." and tended to drive around cruising at 3000rpms just so i could enjoy it more. I put the midpipe on and started crusing around in neutral so my neighbors stopped complaining....

i heard good things about them.....

I like Mac cat backs

Bassani makes a good system as well as Borla but they cost $

u should check out youtube for exhuast clips if you can't find what ur looking for in our exhaust section
