I have it, and i love it! Fitment was great, and was very easy to install. The sound is very unique, and awesome. It has a very deep tone that's loud at WOT, but not raspy. From what i can tell it's somewhat like Borla Stingers in terms of sound & quality, but alot cheaper in price.

I like that this system is specifically made for Mustangs only, and on top of all that it will set you apart from other Mustangs in terms of sound, which i kind of cool...imo.

I highly recommend this system.

When i had my long tubes installed i originally had the o/r h, and honestly i didn't like it at all. It was very loud, but extremely raspy & poppy. When i put on the hi flow cats it was perfect imo... still very loud, but deep with no rasp or pop.

I agree the h sounds better in general, but with this muffler i would go catted if i were you.

Well first of all mine is a "shorty" h pipe (needed for long tubes) and it was originally a o/r h pipe.

The cats were given to me as a Christmas present, so i just had them spliced in.

I've heard a few people running a o/r x pipe with this system, and it seems to sound good. I think it may be because this is a "straight through muffler" and it would be more suitable to a a o/r x. (When you go catted with a straight through muffler you can run an h or x and not get that raspy sound)

I'm not sure what a regular catted h would cost. (MRT has one but it's the most expensive by far), I know the bbk shorty catted h is $350.

You may like the o/r h. The ideal exhaust sound is obviously an individual preference.
