Default 2003 SVT Cobra Exhaust

What's up guys! I'm new to the mustang world, but already addicted!!

I purchasedmy2003 SVT Cobra Vert back in January and I'm ready to get started with the mods. First things first, I'm looking to get a nice exhaust set-up. I have done my research, seen probably every exhaust clip on the internet, read all the reviews I can find,yet I'm still torn between the options. I havedecided onrunning stock headers, a MAC o/r H-pipe (coming in the mail) and I'm trying to find what cat back system will compliment it best.

I'm looking for something loud, but still maintains thatmeaty mustang sound. I'm not worried about the neighbors waking up when I drive home, but at the same time I don't want to be pulled over every time a cop is nearby. I guess i'm trying to say as loud as possible without the tickets!

I have narrowed it down to:
SLP Loud Mouth system
Flowmaster American Thunder w/40 series mufflers
MAC 3" or 3.5" system
Manaflow (not a huge fan, but never heard themwith a MAC o/r H)

Your opinions are appreciated.

if your gonna use an h, i would stick with chambered exhaust(like flows n macs)

IMO straight through mufflers sound 10x better with an x pipe.

Have you heard or looked into bassani? I have a bassani cat-back and it sounds amazing and I'm wondering how it'll sound if I got a mac o/r h

Its just hard to say, the borla stingers are by far my favorite, but I didnt list them because they cost about as much as another set up plus a custom tune. I'm thinking that flows are my best option although incredible generic they do sound awesome. When it comes to the install, does anybody know if I will be needing the O2 sensor extensionsfor theo/r H?

I am running a mac prochamber and love the sound coupled with flowmasterweld ins. It has the deep muscle car tone I was looking for.

i am running a MAC 2.5" system and i love the sound, even though i still have my stock H pipe. Can't beat MAC for the price. I paid $330 shipped for everything.
