Will o/r X-pipe + Magnapacks be annoyingly loud?

Hey guys, about to order the Magnaflow Magnapacks catback. Currently have a Mac o/r X-Pipe with stock catback. And being a mustang owner, it's in my genetics to bolt something onto my car every other day to make it faster and louder :D

Just wondering if the Magnapacks and X-Pipe will make it annoying. I ran open headers once and that sounded like a boat motor to me. Not my style, don't need anything that loud. I want to be able to cruise along at 45 and have a conversation without having to raise my voice too much, wondering if anyone else has this same setup and can give me some feedback. Thanks!

It should sound good. will be a little raspy but not to bad. I have o/r x with bassani cb and i think it sounds great

i have Magnapacks with O/R H. It's Loud as hell outside the car. In the cabin it's alright as long as you are in 5th gear at 45-50mph for crusing. if you are in 4th Gear at 45MPH( stock gears) you won't be able to have a conversation. but if you are in 5th you wont have a problem. Again, that is stock gears for me. Basically Dont cruise at 2000RPM and you'll be fine.

I have and OR X with Magnapacks and Hooker LTs, I personally like how it sounds, Ill get a video for you tommorow. Yours will sound less loud since I have stage II cams

i had a tru-x with the packs on my car, its was freaking loud. you could hear it for about 3 miles at night, and was loud inside the car as well. now i have the lt's and prochamber, its a lot different now. its nice, mellow, at idle, sounds great under load, and is now very quiet in the cabin. i have a clip of mine in the modular section in the exhaust sticky.

I have magnapacks with the bassani o/r xpipe and bassani mid length headers. Its not too loud inside the cabin. I can hear my radio just fine, have a conversation and all that. On the outside, its a different story. I let my girlfriend drive my car once so I could hear it from the outside and its so much more louder and sick than I ever imagined. Its not annoying at all to me. I recommend that setup to anybody

thanks for the input guys, my cruising RPM is 1600 to 2300 on 4.10s. really wouldn't mind not being able to have a conversation at 3K rpm but it seems like it'd be loud enough to where i would never get on the gas in fear of getting pulled over. i'm kind of on the fence with it now, looking through the youtube videos it doesn't seem too bad but of course it could be a lot different in person.

and holy **** scott i couldn't imagine a prochamber with a loudmouth1 on 4.10s, that's gotta wake the dead on the other side of the earth...

my friend has bbk longtubes, o/r x-pipe w/ magnapacks and it's sounds so freakin' nasty to me. it is a real annoying sound, especially when he takes off, like a Blaaaahhh sound. i dont know, i dont like the way his exhaust sound and a lot of the members in our club but my friend likes it and that's what counts i guess.

I really want magnaflow x-pipe, no cats, and magnapack catback with some good equal length headers, I think it would sound nasty, DO IT!

or do headers, x-pipe, then magnaflow catback with mufflers, I think that would sound just perfect.

LT, X pipe, and Magnapacks. Not my car...

Video is kinda F'K up though. Sound and video don't match. X pipe with the magnapack will sound like a race car and H pipe is throatier . the midpipe changes the sound dramatically with the packs. So make sure you do your homework on which one you really want.
