Well I used to have a 96 with a custom made o/r xpipe and 1 chamber flows and I loved the sound. I didnt want to go loud with this one but I changed my mind.
What other mufflers out there are loud but offer a different tone?

They are offset on theinlet and outlet. I can only guess you like your stang LOUD with the one chambers. My buddy has one chambers. They are a bit too much for me.

ahh I was thinking of my truck when I put 3" I knew 2.5" was the biggest [:-]
Now how about the muffler do I need centered outlets or offset?
Any other muffler you guys recommend over a 1 chamber imco. If you dont know what the IMCO is its basically the samething as a 1 chamber flow
I want them cause I can get them for $55 each. And I had 1 chamber flows on my 96 stang with a o/r x pipe. So I figure this will sound close, but I wont be taking the cats off on this one

I had my exhaust ran header back by a local shop.. with 2.5 inch pipe and he built me an O/R X-pipe to throw in there.. i paid $120 dollars for the whole set up... i guess you could add another $120 for mufflers... so $240 vs over $400 for a cat back? there is really no difference... mine sounds great and performs even better

i know of a place that sells new magnaflow and magnapack catback for $319 shipped. If interested PM me for details. BTW I have personally done business with them and sent many people to them, they are one of the best companies that I've dealt with.

here's a vid of my car with magnaflows (granted I have a built motor), you can tell they are far from quiet.

Ill have to listen when I get home I dont have sound on my work computer. But if they sound good I may change my mind.
But when you can get 2 mufflers like these IMCOsfor $110 thats hard to beat.
