Default Which exhaust?

Hey guys,
Got a new Shelby GT-500 and was wanting more from the exhaust. Which Catback system would you guys recommend for it? Was thinking about the Magnaflow.

Damn well congratulations... i dont know a whole lot but heard Magnaflow is not bad at all.. + i believe why NOT try it..just for the heck of it..But if you really want to go for just the quality go for flowmasters..But you want something beastly outta something..Magnaflow u thinking would be right choice that you want.. I currently own a 2009 Mustang GT 45th anniversary ..im putting flowmasters on mine

Ok...i found two magnaflows catbacks for the Shelby. Ones a 2.5inch system and the other is a 3inch. Which one do you guys recommend? They also have axle back exhaust but I don't think those would do crap for any hp gains..

Your best bet is to just go on youtube and listen to clips to see what sounds best to you.

...idk...that Bassani sounds pretty nice too..I think the hp gain will be deciding factor between the Magnaflow and Bassani. Thanks
