Why is it a slippery slope?

Thanks for your feedback

I would have to agree with the Stingers. If you want the rumble...they are great without being obnoxious.

I have Corsa's now. I used to have Hookers. I chose the Corsas because they are quiet when you want, and loud when you want.

I had the hookers too, droned to much for me, and didn't add much outside. I ran corsa's for a long time, louder with a decent sound but didn't have any low rumble. So then that's when I decided to go all out with the JBA shorties, magnaflow catted x (The cats are much smaller then stock) and mid muffler, perfect sound! Good rumble, you can hear it a idle (couldn't really with the other 2) no trumpets and only a tiny bit of drone, more like a nice rumble, not that horrible ringing in you ear sound. The corsas are good and kind if wish I tried them with the new x, but I'm sure they still would have lost that deep sound, that's what kept them from droning.

I have the Bassani X with hi-flow cats. I really think my Corsas sound mean. A lot better than a stock setup with Corsas only.

I should make a video using my high quality microphone.

I agree Corsas aren't deep. What I do like is when I keep it in gear and slowly accelerate up past 3k rpm it sounds like a howl. Thats the best word I can use to describe it.

Macs are arguably the best sounding mufflers made for the Mustang. But I felt like the drone was going to make my brain explode in a violent manner.

My vote is with the Stinger crowd. "Deep" and "Rumble" are Stingers, for sure!

I got the flowmaster a/t on mine (the first ones that came out for the 05's) nice deep tone, very minimal drone. They sound killer with an xpipe and headers on... I don't have those yet but a budy of mine does... But yeah, I like em...

Isn't that a contradiction? It can't be both.
