Default New Cat-Back?

Hey everyone, I am looking for a cat back system for my 98 Gt convert, automatic. I like the sound of MAC for the price, Bassani is amazing but too pricey. I recently found Ford Racing's Cat-back and was wondering what everyone thought. It's stainless, 2.5 " and only $285. I am also interested in Pypes' products.

i heard ford racing doesnt sound that loud unless it is the m55 catback then its a different story. i would get slp if you are looking for a cheap catback that sounds descent. mac sounds good but quality somtimes isnt there and i dont think it is stainless steal.

good to know about the ford racing. I heard it isn't very popular from a local speedshop. I am leaning towards mac, but the guy said go flomaster, but i think that is too loud

Go with the flows man, the catback system is pretty cheap. Flows no matter what, will sound good on a mustang imo.

please don't get flows, IMO they sound horrible, and every mustang has them, the more I hear them, the more I hate them. MAC sounds nice and deep, 100 times better than flows.

I think I am going to go mac. I think flomasters are too common place for me.

I love my flows. They give a nice rumble and aren't too loud. They are everywhere though... had it been my choice I'm not even sure wtfI would have done, but the car came with um!
