DiscoDave, I love the looks of your car, very clean.
I really like the looks of the 2010 V6 front end. Are those the factory polished 18" wheels, they remind me of the 18" KR500 wheel.
You may want to try MRT I think they have worked on a number of V6's.
Thanks! Yeah, they're the factory 18" wheels. I like them so much I'm not going to change them.

QUESTION TO THE GROUP:

I currently have the Magnaflow Dual setup. I'm looking for more rumble. I think I'll go with the Boom Tubes (after SirKnight spoke so highly of them)...

I don't need the entire "System" right? I should just need the mufflers?

Thanks!

for my tastes, I think the Magnaflow duals has the very best sound on the 4.0. Obviously everybody's tastes are different. But that is the direction I will take my wife's Mustang. Currently I have a single Pypes Violator on her car, I like the sound, but man inside the drone will drive you right out after a while. So whatever exhaust system you go to make sure it will be bearable inside. Especially with a vert. Although a vert may have a whole different sound inside than a coupe. Maybe they don't drone, maybe it's worse. But I'd check it out for sure. Remember that what one person may like in an exhaust sound, another may hate. It's not personal, it's just a difference in taste. The youtube videos are a good place to start, but the different in microphones and relative distance can really make the same exhaust on the same car sound radically different.

I went ahead and ordered the Boom Tubes. If I don't like them, I'll just put the Magnaflows back on.
