What about the Shelby GT500 conversions? The GT500's that owners are sendingto Shelby to be converted to KR's or Super Snakes? Do they get the Bullitt muffler or do they get the M-5230-SVT1's or M-5230-SGT's?

I wish the GT500 came with the SVT1's I had the 5230's on my GT, and loved them!

Right now I have the M-5230-GTA's on my GT500 and they sound great with no drone what so ever. I was just thinking that maybe the SVT1's would be more appropriate/correct than the GTA's, since the SVT1's are listed specifically for the GT500 were as the GTA's are listed for the Mustang GT in the FRPP Catalog.

The GTA's fit, look and sound great on the GT500, so I would probably just be wasting money, but I still have this feeling inside that the SVT1's are more appropriate for the car. Sucks being as **** as me [sm=headbang.gif]

I was really thinking about buying the M-5230-SGT mufflers, but then I heard that they droned so I started considering the M-5230-SVT1's. I don't like mufflers that drone, my M-5230-GTA's don't drone at all, I should probably just keep them, but who knows.

ah, yeah I see now....

I don't see why they can't provide a meaner exhaust on their other Shelby GT500's as well...

I mean... the Shelby GT has the X-Pipe and Stingers/FRPP setup....and sounds much meaner than the GT500's with stock exhaust

Shelby GT exhaust looks cooler too....

I know you can just change it out [which we did immediately] but I kinda wish it came from the factory with that
I believe/thinkthe Shelby GT does not come with FRPP Stingers they come with the FRPP GTA's which I use to have on my car.

Yes, the GTA's do sound great. That is why I am afraid that if Iswap the GTA'sfor the SVT1's that I might not like them as much.
