Default Flowmaster

Does anyone have experience with this vendor? It looks like a good deal to me.

Looks good. You can also get an MAC cat-back from American Muscle for $300 shipped as well with the 6% discount code ("mustangboards"). I recommend it!

hmm - I don't see it there. Is the mac a chambered muffler like flowmaster? I know it's not stainless, but does the coating prevent rust?

It doesnt say which Flowmaster Catback it is.

There is the Force II and the American Thunder(most pop)
Im not sure about the differences didnt really care to look it up. But you might find a Force II for about that price other places.

The eBay ad says the mufflers areFlowmaster p/n 42543, these are the classic 2-chamber (I.e. LOUD with noticable dronearound 2000RPM). My '03 GT came to me with an O/R H-pipe and welded in 42543's, the drone at 2100 RPM (almost exactly 80 MPH) was on the verge of painful with the windows up.[/align][/align]I installed a UPR catted X-pipe that tamed them a bit, but the drone was still too annoying for my old (60-years) ears and I had a pair of Magnaflows welded in--the sound level is just right with this setup, however the timbre is very NASCAR like. It's OK but a bit less bark would be perfect...[/align]

Don't go with the flowdiasters and get the Mac catback!!! Too much drone with the flows. If you have the money go with a Bassani or Magnaflow catback.
