Get rid of the cats, and your stang will sound alot meaner..... Alot. I have bbk shorty headers, mac x-pipe and american thunder 40 series 2 chamber flows, and it roars down the road. I had a bbk h-pipe but switched to the x-pipe hoping for a better sound, but i can honestly say that there was no difference.

Really ****ty visual vid, but decent for an exhaust clip.

Love the tone of the car, and it's a rareity on foxes.
Next to no one has the setup.

There are other clips of out of car things on my cardomain on the second page.
Just click the sig

some people refer to the prochamber as the h pipe, so if thats the same, then it'll sound the same as my setup. If its a true H pipe, it will sound close but not exactly teh same...

the main problem people have when they order a flowmaster catback is they say it doesnt sound as badass as other flomaster stangs. its because ALL flowmaster catbacks have delta flow. delta flow sucks, i had stock manifolds, and offroad h and dumped non delta flow 2 chambers on my 87gt and it was the meanest thing i ever heard. tailpipes would have been nice it was so loud, but the non delta flows are the way to go for a true flowmaster sound

I have bbk shorty headers, a bbk off-road h pipe and no cats,and american thunder flowmasters.The exhaust is dumped right before the rear axle. It sounds great and is as load as i would ever want it. Let's just say the nieghbors near me comin from a mile away.

If you do a cam it will sound pretty mean at idle. My friend has an X303 and his car sounds beautiful.

I have stock headers, X Pipe and I believe they are either 40 series or american thunder mufflers with stock looking tip. I didnt put them on but yeah my car sounds pretty loud when im driving.

I agree with Blacksnake "Borla". I tried flowmaster and the drone was terrible at 2,00 rpm. The Borla's have a nice deep sound. I also have the Ford Motorsport headers. Very happy with them. They were easy to install, truly a bolt on.
