Anything louder than magnapacks with no cats would just be straight pipes. And straight pipes sound horrible. (2 pipes coming off the motor and out the back.)

you want loud, just take off everything, mufflers, exhaust pipes, even headers, run ****in open heads, your **** sounds sweet. Your engine heats up mad quick to. It sounds pretty sweet for like a few mins until all your hoses and **** start melting from the heat but its well worth the sound trust.

lol ran open heads on a 89 corvette...boy now that was loud and scary.actually it was like 6-years ago and was customer's car.did a head gaskets on a vette and had this crazy idea what would a 350 sound with no exhaust manifolds.tada found out reall quick.car sounded real nice ...almost like a big lumpy cam'd 350 loud but flames were shooting about half feet outta those exhaust runners and well u got the hint..turned off real quick cuz when fibre glass body catches fire, nothing's gonna stop it...lol.
to me the loudes on a stang i have ever heard is single chamber flows.on a 350,hooker muffs.
