although u cant hear it while at WOT at 100+ over tire/road/wind noise.. basically cant hear any engine at 120 in 4th

i like the stock sound though .. defiantly loud for a stock car

^are you serious? You don't think you can hear any engine at that speed, you sure as heck can hear mine.

What mid pipes did you have>? I have an SLP catted x and i love it. Needs to be louder, but that will come with LTs.

Quiet at low RPMs and louder at higher is the way to go IMHO. More of a sleeper that way.

i have some flowmaster super 44's welded on the original piping. i've been told my mustang is the only one in my town that you know is coming down the road.

with my car being an automatic, it usually rus at 1k rpms, but whe i step on it, sounds really mean.

Ive had an slp catted x, it sounded ok but i was never happy with the sound, above 2000 rpms it got really raspy and it was made horribly, the cats scraped on everything even before i was lowered.

They're loud as hell at WOT, but near silent at idle.

I prefer having a 600whp 10 second daily car that I can stand, and not worry about the drone in, over a civic. You may be different, but that's just me

i agree, recently i've been seeing all these LOUD ****ING cars that don't go anywhere lol. Idk id rather have a quiet fast car than a loud slow one. Thats not to say it can't be FAST and LOUD but i'll be driving my car alot and i don't really need any more attention from the local PD than im going to be getting anyway lol. For some reason the mentality around here seems to be louder= faster, maybe i just want to disprove that
