Just put on the FRPP Stingers **NOW WITH VIDS**
and wow, what a difference. it's totally woken up the sound on the stang. of course, the stock mufflers sounded good but these muffs took my car to a whole other level.
starting it up is freaking sweet. i had a group of people watching my car get worked on as the stingers were installed and when it started up for the first time, the look on the people's faces were priceless. driving around is going to be a new adventure, that's for sure. there is drone and it's pretty loud if you're not used to it. it's around the magic 1500-2000 rpm level, probably starting closer to 1800 than anything. however, playing the radio at regular levels totally drowned out whatever exhaust noise there was so i am not worried about it.
the stingers i got are the Ford Racing muffs that say ford racing on the muffler and on the chrome tip on the top. the tips stick out enough to where they are not flush with the bumper but that's only because you need to see the "ford racing" insignia.
i'll have some pics and most likely a sound clip/video up by tomorrow. for now i'm going to work so my bosses can hear the new ride. they've been salivating since i told them i ordered the stingers. lol

RE: Just put on the FRPP Stingers
so i get to work and meet up with one of my bosses who was really wanting to hear the car. there's a huge managers meeting and they were in the middle of taking a break so he said we needed to go down and hear it immediately. i started it up and you could see the grin on his face. mind you, this guy is a total american made musclecar nut so hearing the stingers was just like heaven. i revved it a few times and he smiled even more. he loved the sound.
now as i shut the car off, he said he even loved how it sounded when it was turned off. kind of a burbling sound. i started to walk away and another one of the managers was outside at the time having a smoke. he told me that we weren't leaving and that he wanted to hear the car. he had heard it roaring as i revved it but he wanted to see it up close. turned the car on again and i got another thumbs up.
so far so good.
