A new edge Saleen passed by me today at an intersection. I just had to sit and watch and listen as it went by. It had one of the best sounding exhausts I've ever heard. I wanted to be chained to the trunk so I could hear it all the time ;-)

5.0 gets the nod. Sounds like it has a soul and is more refined. 4.6 sounds loud and deep, but that's it. Nothing else, people would look just because its loud. 5.0 gets looks because it sounds good.

funny how people have such diff taste. but at the same time have similar taste since we all own the same cars.

Im just not a fan of hollow sound I have always liked the way ls engines scream and growl rather then just deep and hollow like the older stangs.I used to have a 89 5.0 with full exhaust and my set up now pawns my old one IMO

The foxbodies and the pushrod motors sound awesome.....I voted the 92 and its comparing apples to oranges IMO as the motors are totally different...I love the old school sound

The 5.0 with an aggressive cam all day long, sorry boys.
The 3V will never sound right for my taste...
You can make it loud but by then, the purring V8 caracteristics are gone.

Having said that, the Termie mill is just pure music.

personally, I think all 3Vs sound like poop.

I couldn't count the number of exhaust setups I tried on my '05 before I gave up on it.
