Default 4.6 vs. 5.0 which sounds better?

just wondering which exhaust sounds better. these are both my mustangs. the 92 LX has shorties, o/r h pipe and flowmaster super 44's. the s197 has LT's, o/r x pipe, M80's midmounted, and MBRP deletes. leave a comment as to why 1 is better than the other if you like. thanks.

I don't know which one sounds better on this one, maybe the 4.6.

The 5.0 just sounds smoother/more natural though.

Generally I think 5.0's sound better, but it really depends on the setup. Its not really a fair comparison; almost everyone that will vote on this poll drives a 3v and after the drive by the 5.0 was off the gas, really tough to compare.

Both of them can sound good, I would say the 5.0 but now that I got my new setup on mine I love the way it sounds.

The 5.0 hands down! Even in person they just have a deeper and better tone. More like an old school muscle car imo!
