All depends on the sound you're going for.


89 mustang is right, listen to the exhaust soundclip thread and decide what you like the best.

I suggest going on youtube or streetfire.net and trying to figure this one out yourself. You dont want someone else to tell you to get something. Then you get and you dont like it..

MACs are known for rusting from the inside out, mine did on my old v6, it only took 2 years for the baffles to rust out and start rattling around in the mufflers.....go SLP[/align]

listen to clips and see what you like what everyone is saying. But even that is difficult, b/c most of the time the exhaust is distorted or too loud for the camera mic. I heard Mac's for the first time on a SN95 with an E-cam. They sounded pretty good.

I have DynoMax Superturbos on my '66, a little quite for me.

2 Chamber flows on the '93 GT... like everyone else. Just got used to it hearing it ALLL OVER, pretty much the standard mustang sound. I would like to hear it with a prochamber though.

SLP over MAC any day of the week. I'm running LM1's and I will never run anything else. EXCELLENT FIT, EXCELLENT QUALITY, not cheap, but worth every penny IMO.
