Quieting exhaust?
 
My fiance's mother has to have brain surgery in February, and because our Focus is having issues, I am considering driving my Mustang from Indiana to Georgia. Problem is around 70-85 mph, it is really loud. I think the mufflers are flowmasters, and everything else is stock. Is there an easy way to quiet this? Even temoprarily would be fine. I just cannot stand the noise, and I am sure she will not enjoy it either. Thanks in advance!

not really... Unless you have someone with stock ones that'll trade ya...

yea....really the only way to do that is to change the cat back to a magnaflow muffler

if its just flowmaster it shouldnt be loud at all yea just find some stock ones

yea the only reason mines louder is cause i have high flow cats and lt's but when i was stock with just flows they werent that loud. why do you think i have a full exhaust now haha

Turn the radio up, personally I love the sound, I would be cruising with the windows down or crack depending on weather and leave the radio off, but thats just me. I love the smell of high octane burning, tire smoke, oil, and gasoline. Someone should make that a colonge. I would wear it.

I haven't turned my radio on in 3 years... I probably should just take it out but I keep thinking maybe I listen to it some day.

Glad someone else fully enjoys our cars including the sound...

You never know... someone might make a cologne like that. After all, Burger King has a cologne. The description is: Behold the scent of seduction, with a hint of flame-broiled meat. Not sure what to say to that LOL

Back to the post, QUIETING A MUSTANG!?!? ARE YOU CRAZY?!?! haha, I understand. You say it's quite loud at 70-85mph.. Try doing 65, you'd be surprised how much quieter it is and you'll see a nice bump in MPG as well.
