Default 1996 Cobra Exhaust Opinion

Well I have a completely stock 96 Cobra, and the only modification I am going to make on it is changing out the exhaust, no engine work will be performed on it... So with that being said, what's a good exhaust sytem to get for a stock cobra. I personally am leaning towards an SLP exhaust system.. But any other recommendations I should maybe look into? I don't want it over bearingly loud..

Thanks for your help!

get an offroad h pipe wth mac catback or flowmaster 40s if you want that agressive mustang tone and sound...they sound great, if you want a little rasp get a x pipe with spintechs like me, or slps whihc are obnoxious by the way, or something like pypes violators whihc sound awesome, go on youtube there are tons of vids, my car you can hear before and after with l/ts and without...cpstang24 is my user name to type in

Go flowmaster's or Mac if you want that classic sound!

I am on the S. Side of Chicago, Oak Lawn Area... I don't want to mod it anymore for the fact that I just got rid of a 94 mustang that was built to ****, which I actually still have, but I cant say it's very reliable because of all the work thats done to it... Ive never had any problems with it, but I am a little leary about taking it on long road trips... I just bought this cobra about a month ago, it's a mystic, very clean, completely stock, and the main reason I bought it is because I knew it hasn't been tampered with... So now I have nothing to worry about mods wise because its like brand new and has only 30,000 miles on it... I might maybe put a new air filter and maybe cold air induction on it, but I do want to try and keep it stock... Maybe it will be worth something down the road?? 85 GT i am going to go look on youtube now and see how your car sounds... Thanks for the help!

Well I am going to stay away from flowmasters... My brother has an 04 cobra, he put flowmasters on it... but just the mufflers he swapped out and its barely any louder... He is ready to swap them out now and put something else on... I forget what model muffler it was but i think it was dual chamber... not 100 percent positive though...
