Default 1998 Mustang GT. Exhaust Advice Please

I am planning on ordering exhaust on monday. I was thinking magnapacks, bbk catted h and some bbk headers. Im gonna order from american muscle. Are bbks good or should i go for something else?

I personally dont like BBK when it come to exhaust products I had a BBK catted X-Pipe On my 01 GT. That thing hung so low that I scraped it everywhere. I recomend BASSANI..... I have a bassani now & Its egineered perfect its tucked in like the factory X-Pipe

My BBK catted h-pipe hung pretty low as well. Replaced it with a BBK o/r x-pipe after awhile and its tucked up under the body nicely.

I have BBK o/r x, does not hang absurdly low or anything, but catted may be a different story. I have BBk LTs, o/r x, and magnapacks, sound clip in sig

beware the Magnapacks if you don't like noise...those puppies are freaking loud. it sounds amazing, but again, they're louder than s***

it still makes me smile though. my car snarls when I get into it and everybody around knows there is a V-8 inside.

I haven't had any luck with aftermarket cats...I suggest you just leave 'em alone and put your money into other places...especially since you've got emissions to deal with.

i have an o/r h from summit, with stock mufflers and it sounds awesome! as for the bbk headers, ive heard of people having them rust out on them! but maybe its just them, i dunno, either way its gonna sound good!
