ORIGINAL: Black Snake

I hosestly think the best sounding cars are the ones that arnt raspy and make poping noises at high RPM. Flows are way too played out, everyone one that owns a mustang around here has them. Glasspacks are old school, and sound clean for the budget. (Arnt Magnapacks a form of glasspacks?) I also believe that SLP loudmouths are insanly loud and dont belong on a mustang, those are ment for Camaros. Its also true the making a car to loud is false advertisment and equals rice, ricers have that loud fart can on because they want to get noticed and want people to think that they have somthing under the hood.


My 2 cents.
I have read and heard this for some time now about the SLP's, and I was just wondering why everyone says they only belong on Camaro's? Is it because SLP was just for Camaro's and such and till Chevy stopped making them? My oppinion of Muscle Car exhaust is uncontrolably loud, sloppy, gurgly exhaust..but that is just my oppinion, hence my exhaust system..that's all exhaust is, sound preference.. to each his own

So I'm a ricer now because I like loud things, including my car (which will all change when I get enough money for a catback)??? Wow I really didn't think so, I don't care about what people like about my exhaust tone, I just thought that it sounded pretty cool for the money. Oh btw, there isn't nothin wrong with tobacco chewing rednex (I preffer copenhagen, break horses, ride horses for people, and love drivin my pony). Oh, btw, if you hear some insanely loud popping with a straight thru exhaust it's usually because there's no crossover tube (h pipe or x pipe). Glasspacks sound decent, but they are way to raspy for me. So just be careful of talking trash about people please, that would be like me saying that rice burners are for s&!$&$ and ni&&^*$, but I know that isn't true.

We call it rice because most people who put loud exaust on there ride just do it for the pure loudness and not the smoothness or nicest sounding exaust. Alot of people that live around here that drive Maros and Mustang just put loud exaust on there car to compinsate for there weak motor, IE no mods slow bucket of a car. I would rather have a insanley fast car, or just a really fast car and have a low tone exaust to have some sort of sleeper.

I rather be insanely loud AND fast. I loved hearing my flows. I thought that they sounded good IMO (I prefer louder though). I'm not going to argue for them because I like others also. And someone said that 8 out of 10 stangs on the road have flows.... true but shouldnt that tell you something? Its all personal preference.

Fact, old style glass pack do not flow as well as a new stright threw muffler. You can say they are the dsame thing but once you look inside you see what I mean.

Im my opinion it all depends on hat car u put them on. yes alot of ppl have FLOWS but i love them. If u really wanna try and decide go to www.mustangexhaust.com and register there. They have all kinds of setups so u can choose one u like.
