Default Magnaflows or Flowmasters??

I have a stock 03 GT and I was wondering what your opinions were on exhausts. Should I get the flowmasters or the magnaflows? I'm leaning towards the Magna's cause they are stainless, but I heard that they aren't as loud as the flowmasters. And whats the diff between the regular magnaflow cat-back and the magnapack cat-back? Any input would be appreciated.

Between the Magnas or the flows? Hands down i'd say magnas its what i have on my stang and it makes flows sound crappy if you ask me, but as Nanaki said SLP LM2s are better still...

Magnaflows if those are the only options. I would go with SLP though. I plan on getting the LM1s. Listen to a sound clip of the SLP's they are awesome!!!!

hell yeah! the LM1s SCREAM!!! the 2s scream too but offer a deeper growl. magnaflows sound good too, just i went from stock to LM1s. all them other catbacks sound stock to me now.

people who say they don't sound good on 5.0s probably haven't even heard them on a 4.6. it's all speculation. just like how everyone used to badmouth the LM1s for being raspy and just annoyingly loud with no bass. notice how all those people shut right up now. i say get em! get the LM2s on that beast.

know any good places to order from? i think i have to get the 2's, because with a o/r h and turn downs, 1's might just be too loud lol

The magnaflows don't sound that great at idle, but when you open up the car they are orgasmic.

Magnaflow>everyone else.
