Quiet, Quiet, Quiet.

So, after I do my suspension, Ill be done until...well, until further notice...

I can't stand the way my car sound now. It sounds like an effing diesel, and in my opinion, nothing is gayer than seeing a car that looks nice, but the sound kills it. So, instead of having a 6er that looks good and is loud, but doesn't actually sound "great," what would be the best bet for just simply quieting the whole exhaust setup down. (right now I'm running an o/r x with the pypes violator catback.) Would just putting some GT takes off be a good idea? I'm staying o/r x just because I don't want to spend the money to redo the mid-pipe. Really just looking to change out the mufflers.

Best bet?

your problem is no cats, I hate the sound of the v6 without cats, it is raspy and clicky, put your stock cats back on it and itll sound fine

01VBmustang · February 9th, 2009, 11:13 PM

I like how my H-pipe with dual flows sounds..at least for a sixx

But I can promise you it still has the very...deeming, v6 quality tone to it. I wouldn't mind a little noise, but almost the sound of a stock gt or something along those lines.

01VBmustang · February 9th, 2009, 11:33 PM

Of course it has the v6 uality tone, it's a six. If you want v8 quality tone you'll need a v8, im sure you've heard that plenty of times though..

Dansby · February 9th, 2009, 11:37 PM

I'm in no way looking for the sound of a gt, aha. Your telling me something I learned 2 years ago when I got my car, hence to why I want to make it quiet.

01VBmustang · February 9th, 2009, 11:43 PM

Oh, haha i thought you were saying it is too quiet. I miss read the post. Must be time for bed lol

Ninjawafers! · February 9th, 2009, 11:45 PM

a prochamber might help out... the x-pipe really isnt doing much to better your sound either... have 2 cats put back on and it might sound better

Dansby · February 9th, 2009, 11:49 PM

I'm not spending money on cats...haha.

Ninjawafers! · February 9th, 2009, 11:57 PM

you dont have your stocks? maybe go for a prochamber midpipe

Might.

do it did

mooses · February 10th, 2009, 01:20 AM

The combo of no cats + an x pipe = super raspy. Do you have an exhaust clip? No offense to you, but that has got to sound like ass and I'd like to hear it

WLJohnson05 · February 10th, 2009, 02:29 AM

i like the way a diesel truck sounds

Breakout · February 10th, 2009, 02:37 AM

just trade your car in for a 350z. you won't have to worry about how your 6er sounds then!!!

dgt_mustang · February 10th, 2009, 09:56 AM

ill get a sound clip of my stang, look down at my sig for the exhaust mods, i love the way it sounds.

goren813 · February 10th, 2009, 10:03 AM

Dansby your avi is gonna make me have a seizure.

Smoothgrandmama · February 10th, 2009, 10:21 AM

Dansby · February 10th, 2009, 03:57 PM

i think that ur problem is the pypes bcuz every single one ive heard doesnt exactly sound good... its gonna be pretty hard to quiet a car that doesnt have any cats and idk what to tell u other than get those back. or if you are tired of the raspy sound cut out the pypes and just start over.
