What exaust setup do i need to get the loudest sound out of my stang?

232stang · November 9th, 2006, 01:48 AM

straight headers

what i did was just disconnected my muffler from my y pipe and it was freaking loud. i had the muffler bolted on to 1 of the bolts so it exhaust didnt go into it. but i ended up with a cracked y pipe so maybe jimmy rig it another way? also if you do that it backfires alot lol. maybe you could just take off the muffler so it has some more pipe to go to or something.

it wont backfire, but since you lose backpressure, your loss of backpressure makes the crackling sound. backfire is very different than this, and results in severe engine damage.

no mufflers is illegal for street use, so the loudest non-emissioned exhaust setup would be mac long tubes, mac short off road H pipe, and flowmaster race mufflers dummped.

loud is not always good on the even-firing essex motor though.

mac also has a dump setup ... for $200

backfire is when you shoot flames no? cause i was lol. but thats when my y pipe was broken

AtlanticBlue99 · November 9th, 2006, 05:54 PM

usually a poor tune that either runs the wrong timing or the wrong a/f ratio will cause you to run rich and unburnt fuel will make its way into the exhaust pipes where it is hot and pressurized to explode back up into the exhaust port. this is very dangerous, and this is backfiring

ya ive only had it happen once, but my car was running lean and i was racing but its all fixed now and i have my muffler back on. now time for some real sound lol

you can get some thing that hooks up to your colectors so when you flip a switch you can run straight headers you can get this at jegs.com but i dont recomend running like that very long because then you will end up cracking your block....and the reason why it "back fires" its because there is no back preasure

cutouts are perfectly safe. drag cars run nothing but headers and dont crack the block, hell most strip cars run headers to collector and that is it

ya but thats for like a coulpe of seconds or at the most 5 min when they line up....but notice i said " i dont recomend running like that VERY LONG because then you will end up cracking your block"....ive seen people blow their engine because they ran straight headers too long because your motor needs some back preasure

first, that is not straight headers. that is headers to collector pipe. a straight headered setup has no collector pipe, and even that wont crack the block. people drive all the time for periods of time with open collectors or cutouts.

chrish91286 · November 9th, 2006, 11:34 PM

yeah but it isnt a good idea cause like people said you can crack the block or a head or even burn a vavle.

a motor needs backpressure, when exhaust gas comes out of the cumbustion chamber it flows over the falve and out of the heads into the exhaust. with backpressure some of that gas circulates back, cooler now that it was before, and then finally exits the cars exhaust system. if you run straight headers that gas just constatly flows through which creaes a hot spot and can really damage a motor. when i put my exhaust on i put on a 160 degree thermostat to make sure the engine cooled proopely now that i took away some of that back pressure it had in its stock form

chrish91286 · November 9th, 2006, 11:35 PM

in fact some bbk exhaust products came with a lower degree thermo, my friends pipes for his 92 gt came with one
