Default How to quiet down?
This may sound crazy but, I was wondering just how quiet could a V8 GT get? Right now I have flowmaster mufflers on and the car sounds great. But I would like a quieter ride. So either buy another sports car or see what can be done to quiet this bad boy down.

Ideally I would like the car to be LEXUS quiet.

Any ideas on how to accomplish this?

Magnaflow catback, with an additional set of resonators installed in the H-pipe

This is a joke right?
Mustangs are not supposed to be quiet.
Suggest you get a lexus then.

Might be wrong but I believe flowmaster has some mufflers made to be quiet.
