Default Sound...Mustang vs. Corvette?

Stock for stock....Why do Mustangs sound so much better than Corvettes and I guess Camaros...Not sure about the Camaros cuz' all I ever see is the 3.8's. But why do the stangs sound so much better? I cant hear Corvettes..........

Mustangs mostly sound the way they do because of the firing order and that they have true duals that are routed evenly on both sides.

Dunno, but a vette with a bassani cat back doesnt sound too bad.

Think that was the exhaust I heard.
Sounded really good actually.

Y-pipe exhaust systems sound terrible. They have to run no muffler or go duals for it to sound good.

Late model Mustangs sound so sweet because of the SOHC/DOHC heads and true dual exhaust.
