But price is not an issuse with me..Can anyone suggest what I should do for exhaust? I'm looking for the best results.

HP or sound? for hp im not sure if bassani is better the magnoflow magnoflow will give you a few extrea horses over flowmaster but in my opinion flowmaster and mac sound best although i have heard one magnoflow that sounds good __________________ 437rwhp and 402rwtq through a V6 on a stock bottom end

If you can afford Bassani, go for it, and the sound is not bad. Be sure to get a midpipe with high flow cats or no cats at all (X or H pipe) to gain power and even more sound! __________________ ModdedAutos 1999 Mustang V6 I used to list my mods here but stopped when I exceeded 255 characters.

The best sounding may just be the Mac catback as well. Even the Borla makes good power as it is not chambered like Flowmaster, but is straight through like Magnaflow. and Chris, definitely post the exhaust sound links, he may sacrifice 1-2rwhp for a better sound. Maybe you could add my new video to the links? __________________ ModdedAutos 1999 Mustang V6 I used to list my mods here but stopped when I exceeded 255 characters.

But the most power is in long tubes and an off road mid pipe. shorties wont get near the flow as long tubes...
