RE: The One And Only Exhaust Thread
My dad's friend has a garage and he tossed on my MAC true dual setup. I love how it sounds, absolutely love it. For the price and what I'm doing, it's the perfect sound and setup. MAC just makes solid stuff.

Ok I'll be getting exhaust for my 2000 6'er soon. Now putting aside the performance gains would a y pipe with flow 40's give me better sound then say true duals with an h or x pipe? My brothers 98 firebird had y pipe duals and it sounded excelent, nice low growl not very ricey at high rpm's. Any suggestions guys?

True duals will always sound better. Even though two cylinders fire at the same time on a V6, true duals kind of give you stereo exhaust for lack of a better word. I have true duals without an H or X pipe. To be honest, my friend has my set up with an H pipe and mine sounds way cooler. I've never heard an X pipe in person on a V6 yet.

wasnt it to ask questions about exhaust? "Ask your exhaust questions or add your opinions and knowledge about exhaust systems here"
I dont hear about Y pipes that often im just wondering if they sound is any better or any worse then "true duals" thats all[sm=imsorry.gif]

I forgot to ask you guys a question... since im getting the offroad x-pipe with the pypes exhaust package, do you think the loudness will get old and annoying after a while, or it justs adds that touch on the car that never goes away.. sorry if that was confusing.

Yes, no problem. Alot of people do it that way because you can go to Pep Boys and get a Flowmaster 40 and an installation kit for around 150 bux total and cut your old muff out with a hack saw and clamp up your new Flowmaster muff. When I was growing up, we did it all the time. It's not the best way, but it's better then stock.

oh ok booze, thats cool. as a mustang owner, of course i want whats best for my car. if i had the dough i would def get a TRUE setup...throw soime GT take offs, get a flow 40 series muffler and have a true setup. but being a college kid (esp with christmas and me transferring schools soon), im poor, and anything is better than stock. so while it may not be the best setup, unfortunately, it may be all i can do for now
