This is why I'm having a hard time deciding...

No, the GTAs are not the stingers. Those are the FRPP GTs. IMO you can't beat the GTAs. Xbone gave you the cost (can you believe $269 and all stainless) and where to get 'em. I just left a recent thread here on the forum with testimonials on the GTAs (including mine). All I can say is I love 'em and I think you'll bless the day you decided to get them (if you do). No drone and obviously Shelby loves them!

Oh man, don't be cuttin' or weldin' nothin'! Ford designed our cars with the mufflers for "easy serviceability", b/c they know most people swap them out. Why complicate things, just get the Corsas and do it yourself. Once you put those resonators in you're stuck with them.
Unless you put those resonators in EXACTLY the right place, you haven't fixed a thing. Good luck calculating that.

Man I know exactly how you feel with the drone, It sucks! If corsa guarantees you no drone then go with those, but the FRPP GTA's hes talking about sounds pretty intersting I mean I dont think shelby would put a muffler on a new car that drones like a *****, LOL! So I would call a place that sells them and see if they can guarantee you no drone as well, but either way those would be my pics, I dont like the resinator Idea I have two sitting in the garage just dont want to install em cause they are very heavy and I probably still wont get the sound wanted.

BTW Heres a clip of the GTA's

IMO, Corsa has the better sound and no drone at all. You know where my vote lies.

Listening to theclips above I might like the GTA's better than the Corsa mufflers. Either one of them does not sound bad at all....BUT....they are not Muscly (word?) enough. I guess if you want that muscle sound you have to put up with some drone, which I have no problem doing - I just don't want the nauseating levels the MACs give. I'm going to go with the resonators and KEEP the cat-back MAC exhaust. It's perfect in everyway except drone (e.g. looks, quality, sound).

I will provide sound clips tomorrow night with the resonators or race mufflers on...WISH ME LUCK!
