Default MY CAR IS RUINED

Ok Guys. YOu know i like loud cars. MY mustangs exhaust hasn't been finished for some time, and it was really loud, and i loved it. Now, i just had it finished, and had GT exhaust installed. IT IS SOOOO QUIET. I CANT STAND IT!!! i got flowmasters and everything. HE did bend the pipes himself, and there weren't bent to good. The only plus is, it seems to be burning the tires off the rims. I feel more power in it. Just improved torque from more back pressure though.

I like loud exhast too. However the better back pressure must be fun. So I guess its a tradeoff.

Well it is to me. I mean it' still loud outside, but it sucks on the inside. Im getting used to it. I have a bad exhaust leak at the donut gasket, and it makes it sound like crap.

You can get some of those exhaust dumps put in also. Pull a lever or push a button and it dumps the exhaust out right next to the headers, no muffling at all. Nice for weekend track runs.

Yeah, we called those cut-outs back in the day. Just yank on a cable that opened the exhaust just after the header and closed off the exhaust to the mufflers.
