Default ripped off my flowmasters

I finally had time to put the flowmasters in the dumpster. The stock mufflers w/ Xpipe sound much better.
Any suggestions on a GOOD sounding muffler x/ off road X pipe?

theres a ton of combinations out there
axelbacks, catted X or H, o/r X or H, shorty headers, LT headers, etc
hard to find the right tone for each person

I have LT's with O/R X pype and borla stingers and yeah they´re quite raspy

you really hated them that much? I like the way mine sound; I had a 90 GT with flowmaster two-chambers and an o/r H and it sounded just about the same...

the old 5.0 wasn't as raspy or high-pitched. similar tone, but overall it doesn't sound the same IMO.

the Flows sound pretty good on the outside but inside the car, they sound like a machine gun going off in a metal trash can at WOT. it's not pretty to me, which is why I switched them out for the FRPP GTA chambered mufflers which produce a much smoother tone and still scream at WOT without the cats.

I have Longtubes header with X pipe and pypes midmuffler system.Awesome sound and no drone at all.I think its best sound system for the S197 Mustang.
