Its good to hear a bunch of mufflers on the same car, under the same conditions, shot with the same camera. Gives a much better perspective.

Absolutely. This has been incredibly helpful as I'm looking to upgrade my 06 Gt's exhaust in the next few weeks...

Took the words right out of my mouth. Not one sounds bad. I have the FRPP 5230-5GT's (Borla Stingers) but I think the SLP's sound just a tad better. Great test.

This thread needs to be added to the exhaust sticky!

of those in the OP, i like the KR mufflers or the LM's. the flows sounded almost like stock, and the violators were just a tad bit louder than the flows and the magnaflows sounded similar to those 2 maybe a little smoother than the violators.

Just a thought, what was the break-in period on these? The reason I ask is that mufflers change in tonal quality as they break-in.

My GT was too quiet for me when I first got it until the mufflers broke in.
