wooooooooo 700 dollars! im a college kid and im about to get a new clutch,dont think ill be able to afford a 700 dollar pair of mufflers! lol i might just stick with stock exhaust or go with GTA... someone in houston lemme hear ur GTA's!!
I'm in Houston (work in downtown & live in Kingwood) and you're more than welcome to hear my Corsa's...

Besides, you can get them cheaper than $700 if you shop... I paid $679 with free shipping from www.lmperformance.com
Show them to meee! When and where? Why do u have to live all the way up in kingwood. lol


and to the guy who mentioned flowmasters, been there done that, negative. Maybe maganflow since they arent very loud. but ill check out these corsas, i decided to maybe not get a new clutch

Magnapacks are NOT quiet. lol

And Corsa is pretty quiet, but too expensive.

Flowmaster AT are good...slightlouder than stock. I have them and have been very happy. I have the stock exhaust except for my ATs. But given what you have done to the rest of your exhaust it's hard to say exactly how they would sound. I'm sure it would be much different than mine. Seek the advice of others with your exhaust setup.

You're going to find, if you haven't noticed in the posts already, a wide range of opinions. Maybe go to a Mustang show and listen for yourself. Sound clips might help you narrow down your choices. But they don't do the exhaust justice.

I think just about any exhaust will have some drone at a certain rpm. So don't get too hung up on that. I wish there was a way to simply try different exhausts...kind of like shoes. Once you've tried several you could pick one.

Finally, exhausts do seem to "break in". Mine sounds slightly louder or richer than when new. Hard to account for that when you first buy them unless you've heard it on another car.

Love my GTAs! and IMO the 4" flaired tips are the best looking around. They do get better with age.

GTA's or magnaflow sound good but not too loud, would sound good w/ the rest of your exhaust.
