Thats gonna sound straight up nasty! Have you ever heard that on a 3.8L stang? At idle, you honostly cant tell the difference b/t the coupe and the gt!

Stang187 · October 13th, 2007, 10:07 AM

are u talkn about a full mac exhaust on a 3.8l?

Archy88 · October 13th, 2007, 11:17 AM

Stang, how much did that setup cost you??

I've been looking up sound clips lately, and I really like the flowmaster 40's. I also like the flowmaster 40's delta(does anybody know what the difference is??)

Right now, I'm thinking stock headers for now. A catted h pipe(mac probably??...who's got the best price??). Custom dual pipes & flow 40 mufflers. I'll also stick with the stock bumper for now, and if it really does look tacky, I can always get a GT one down the road.

Mac Lt's (Ceramac) = 313.03 + Tax = $331.81
Mac Offroad H pipe and mac catback= 502.49
Total= $834.30
If u wanna count Mil and o2 extensions= $100
Total now= $934.30

its kinda funny seeing what 939.30 dollars is in exhaust and its just pieces of metal lol....I look at the whole setup when I put it on the ground and was like wow.... not much for 939.30 but hopefully it will sound good on the car... only other mod I have is a Cai

is there anything I could put on my exhaust system to make it more rust resistant?

Some high temp paint.... but idk if it would stay on for very long... idk if ur even supposed to use it on exhaust parts

If I don't decide to get headers now, is that something I could add further down the road? I don't wanna purchase new items just to fit headers, when I could get everything first shot.

If you don't want to scroll up, I've been thinking mac catted h, custom pipes, flow 40's...

Rust resistance is also huge for me. With all the salt they put down here, I don't want to replace this damn thing in 5 years ;-)

Stang187 · October 14th, 2007, 02:41 AM

i'd get everything first shot since it wuld cost less money to install then having to take off and put back on...though i culd be wrong. plus if u do it first shot u wont have to worry about it =)

well if u want LT's , ur gonna have to change your midpipe out for a shorty midpipe to match up with a longtube midpipe. So i'd just do it all at once.
