Default 87 5.0 Exhaust Suggestions

i am thinking about redoing my mustangs exhaust from the headers back but i am having trouble deciding on a setup. Ive looked at Borla, Magnaflow, Flowmaster, and SLP but i cant decide. I know i dont want that tingy sound and i want it to be a little bit louder than my current setup but not crazy loud. Also, should i look at an x pipe or a h pipe and what are the defferences. If you can, please give me suggestions and if possible, post a video of your setup so that i can get an idea. Thanks

Check out the exhaust thread in the sticky section. I've got a MAC cat back with a bbk h-pipe and love it. Deep sound to it and not crazy loud.

nope! Smithfield. this is the first time ive seen another rhode islander on here. when i bought the car it had mtx roadthunder subs in the backseat and when i installed the new system i had them taken out. i had kenwoods put in all of the places where the stock speakers were mounted. the subs just got to be a pain, my hockeybag wouldnt fit and when i get my liscence and i gotta give rides home from school, im not gonna have the room. i tried putting them in the trunk but it didnt work.
