I didn't vote because I have a magnaflow cat-back. Just get a cat-back. They are not that expensive - save if you have to. Weld-ins will not offer any power and very little sound difference...unless you welded in a high pitched cherry bomb or something.

thanks for all the opinions guys, i think I am going to go with the flow 44's....but does anyone know where I can find that in a catback system? I've looked on several different sites but can't seem to find it.

How can i tell if my mid pipe is stock or aftermarket?
If i decide to replace it with and o/r pipe will my car pass the inspection/emission?
does the mid pipe comes with cat?
can someone please educate me on this.
thanks,

Mangaflow sounds like a wet fart. And with all the other straight through exhausts on these cars, it just doesn't sound right. Gotta love that signature Mustang sound you get with Flowmaster., and the 44s sound GREAT! I went with MAC because they are stainless steel but otherwise I would of gone with Flowmastesr.

That blue one barely made noise lol. Your's on the other hand sound like my Packs which I feel sound nothing like a mustang should, not saying it's bad, just not my taste. Straight-throughs just sound like farts.

^ this is pure, raw, pissed-off muscle sound.
Straight-thrus, IMO, sound like a V8 version of rice. Hence my dire need to get these Magnapacks off. But to each his own.

And to answer your question. I don't believe they've made them with a catback quite yet. Maybe find an inexpensive, stainless, catback and have those flows welded in for the best sounds and performance capability.

Since you have an H-pipe, go for either the Flowmaster 44's or MAC mufflers. Spintech's may also sound decent.

If you were running an X-pipe, I'd say Bassani, Magnaflow, or Borla.
