flowmastas make anythign sound like a v8!























lol jk

3.73-11

keeping your stock cats&using either an h pipe or the mac prochamber helps keep a nice deep exhaust note. I think the 4.0 sounds good i've had 5 different setups between my 06&2010 4.0's and they all had their good&bad points

WOW good to see some of the GT jack a$$'s still come around to add lots of garbage to these threads.
In short no, but the V6 does have a unique sound, I met a guy from NY in Carlisle PA show from the mustancollective who had no cats, gt H pipe and Mac that sounded awesome and close to the v6 at idle. Of course a different RPM's it will be different. The S197 3v sounds different than the 2v and the 5.0.
Embrace your sound, play around w/a few different systems and enjoy the car cause after all it is a Mustang.

I'm guessing w/this statement you don't get out much and haven't heard many ricers? Or is this a funny way you are taking a shot at the V6?

I have a Borla dual kit w/ X pipe on my sixer. I think it has a more "performance" tone instead of just really loud. I think it is funny that some people around my area with v6's make them as loud as they can and think they are bad-*** sounding.

There isn't really a way of duplicating the v8 sound with a v6, (due to firing order) so you are going to have to listen to a few set-ups or try a few and make a personal judgement.

Exhaust is all personal preference, what I like you may think sounds like crap and visa-versa.

I think the FRPP M5230V6 dual exhaust kit with the GTA mufflers sounds great. Its not a V8 sound but it is better then most V6 exhaust kits for the Mustang. Loud is not the answer on some V6s.

I've heard many things but I don't think you can comprehend how bad an engine can sound until you hear the mustang v6 with the wrong exhaust doing a sweep of the tach.

It's the worst sounding production noise on the planet. This is not an estimate or a guess.

My daily driver is the v6 pony package convertible...

It's actually worse sounding than this (which is pretty bad):

i dont think its possible to sound worse than that..... thats like a 95 year old coughing.

So I'm guessing you have proof to back this up, I mean since this is no guess or not an estimate, lets see tests you have done to prove this.
We are not talking about a bad sounding exhaust, we are talking about a stock or a guy that is willing to make his car sound good.
It seems with a V6 and a Saleen in your stable you would actually have some love for Mustangs, but instead you have a need to come here and stroke your EPEEN and tell everyone your flawed opinion about your biased view of a V6.
BTW I sold a V6 that sounded pretty kick *** so maybe PAL you are the only one who can comprehend the sweeping of a tach sounding worse than a fart can Civic trying to do a rev up and blow by.
Thats a horrible sound, serious!

Doesn't sound to bad
