We need mustangman to post some of his videos to convince you. he had the exact setup you would have if you got the MRT catted h, and it sounded great. I prefer the x pipe, but its all preference.

Right now I'm pretty torn between the Magnaflow Catted X and the MRT Catted H.
The one thing holding me back was the price of the MRT because it was so much more expensive then all the other midpipes I've found but it sounds like its worth it.
Anyone have any clips of an MRT Catted H with Flows?

Mustangman(silver convertible) used to have that exact setup. So pretty much youre torn between the setup i currently have on my car and what mustangman used to have. lol I'll go out and make a video of my setup after classes are over today so you can get an idea of how it sounds better cus there arent really any good videos out there of the setup. I'll make some idle, easy accel, hard accel, and some decel videos and throw them on here for you.

No problem. Ive been meaning to do one for a while now anyways and this just gives me a reason to do it. I wanted a before video with this setup incase i changed my mufflers to see what a difference it makes.

I've got a mac catback now and just ordered the MRT catted h last night. Hopefully i'll get it sometime this week, keeping my fingers crossed. I hate X pipes with chambered mufflers and i didn't wanna go off road so MRT was really my only choice.

I couldnt go out to take a video today because it started raining and i didnt want to sit my camera on the wet ground and have rain possibly ruin it. So hopefully tomorrow. You'd be surprised how good the catted x and flowmaster combo sounds.

Are you running a catted X? Your sig says o/r. I'd like to hear it. Every time i hear an x it just sounds too raspy for me. I prefer the deeper tone of the h.

I gotta change it. I have the o/r x sitting in the basement because i had to take it off for emissions and inspection and i just didnt get around to putting it back on yet. But yea, im running a magnaflow catted x pipe right now. Sounds awesome i think.

Sweet, can't wait to hear it when you make the video. I"m gonna get a clip of my exhaust soon, i wanna compare the catback with the stock h compared to later this week once i get the catted h on their. Also, does anyone happen to know how to fix an uneven pipe? My right exhaust pipe hangs lower than the left and it drives me nuts. Seems where the hanger goes into on the bumper is a little lower which causes the hang. I've tried adjusting it so many times and still can't get it even. Might have to take it into an exhaust shop and have them do it because i can't stand looking at it knowing its uneven.
