Default STRAIGHT PIPES!!!!

I was thinking of what mufflers to get and was reading alot of posts on the subject but in the end I decided to go with 3 inch straight pipes...LOUD AS HELL!! probably the fact that hooker headers are in front has something to do with it....anyway if any of you guys out there were wondering how to get your stang to stand out,go with straight pipes!!! hope this helps.......

lol, guess it just depends on the sound you like. it just was not for me. sounded good inside the car, but sounded like **** from outside. but I like a nice deep mellow rumble. thats why I said IMHO. don't take it personally. lol. although the 3 inch probly sound better than the 2 1/4 that were on mine.

at least blacksnake agrees with me, lol.

I had straight pipes on my 383 Nova...

....For about two days!! That crap sounded so Gay and John Deerish.

Way better with even the cheapest of mufflers...
