Default muffler eliminators

I saw a long time ago a place somewhere in the net that sold muffler eliminators for the fox body, it looked like a piece of tubing with a few minor bends and a hanger welded on it, does anyone out there know where I can get these and if I have an off road h-pipe and these how loud will my car really be? My car is mostly stock the only engine anything I have done is a K&N filter and the usual free stuff (timing, thermostat etc..) Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yeah you definitely want mufflers on the street. If you have a stock 5.0 sounding like a dragster, you'll catch all the wrong attention. If you just want a healthy sounding exhaust note, get some Dynomax straight through mufflers or SLP like ^ said.

The exhaust I have on right now is completely stock, the car was a california car so there is no rust anywhere on the exhaust (or anywhere else I can find) not to mention it it only has 62,000 original miles. I use to have a 92 lx 5.0 that had 1 5/8 long tubes an off road cat and the old 2 chamber flowmasters (all 2 1/2) and I liked the sound just wanted maybe something a little throatier without having to resort to "dumps" I like my tailpipes. I have looked everywhere for SLP's and can't find them for the fox body stang, any advice?

Hey man I am not too sure about down in the US OF A but here in Canada I ran my car into a muffler shop told them to run 2 and 3/4 off my headers straight into Free Flowing(straight Through fiberglass packed) Ravin Mufflers, the ravins are pricey but its the closest I have come to a type of "Stright Pipe" sound. I payed 700 CAD to get my car done new front to back. I have a clip if someone would show me how to post it
