I had a 92 5.0 with BBK headers and a Borla cat-back. No problems with a sticker. Even louder, I had a 2001 GT with a Jeg's 2.5" cutback. I swapped the "turbo style" mufflers with Flowmaster Super 10's. if you're not familiar with those, they're pretty much straight through. Even on my current 4-banger, I couldn't resist putting a cat-back on (because it was cheaper than the OEM exhaust currently only available from the dealers on backorder). The kit increased from 1.75" to 2.25" tubing, and deleted a resonator. I have not had any issues passing, but then again, I've been to the same guy with all of my cars.

I have heard that there is a fine for each resonator deleted from the car if you're pulled over, but I kind of doubt it. The only thing an officer is going to know is if the cats are missing.

Bottom line: I would not worry about an axle back system.

Car has 24k miles on it, new all-season tires, and runs awesome (obviously).

KBB for the car is around 24k, I'm looking to get 23 for it.

No idea yet, if it sells I'll make a quick decision.

Fair enough. Dealers told me they would give me 19-20k so I know privately its worth 23-24.

Let me know if you get any hits.

Can anybody think of a fun car, manual, modable, that isn't too expensive? I'm having a hard time coming up with a good list...

It'd probably help with suggestions if you could hang a budget figure on "not too expensive".
