Default single exhaust

i've been beating myself up about exhaust ever since i got the car and i think i'm just going to stay with single...does anyone have a clip of a single pypes violator or mac? i couldn't find a single pypes axleback in the sound clip area.
thanks

I'm sure you've heard this over and over. But if you aren't dead set on single then might as well save up for duals. I'm gonna guess that later you will wish you had later on.

Just my say though!

i think i'm gonna stick with single for cost, ease of install (i have a muscle car that has a ton of custom work and fabing all done by me, and i don't wanna do that to this, hence why i bought a new car lol)

i was really wanting to go FRPP duals, but i really don't want to cut my bumper or use another kit that will require cutting of pipes...then i saw all of victoria's vids on the single aeroturbine, but for that much, might as well go duals, where a pypes or mac single isn't too bad cost wise, just wondering on sound...my stock exhaust sounds pretty good if it were just a lil bit louder - tone is deep and sounds nice

Go with FRPP duals and a GT bumper. What I did. You will not regret it. Plus, I've heard that pypes drone a lot. Of course, that could be just the duals.

Everyone that has installed the FRPP duals have not been disappointed. Trust me, the little bit more to pay for all the other stuff will make you enjoy it that much more. Plus, I wouldn't want to get down the road and have to fork over more money to buy duals.

You can get the GT bumper off many sites, painted too.

that's my other bit of "me" i guess...maybe i'm alone on this one, but i find the gt bumpers hideous...hence why i think the v6 looks like a lot nicer car....[8D]

Ah. Heh.

Personally, I love the rear bumper. It matches the curves of the exhaust very well! Can't go wrong with it!

idk it covers up the exhaust...i'd rather see the pipe and they look too square cut and blocky...idk it's hard cuz i'd like to have the look, but i don't wanna be like all the camaro guys and put a fake pipe on to make it look cool, but then you see smoke coming out of one pipe and none out of the other.......you wouldn't BELIEVE how many camaros have that around here

I didn't think it covered it up too much. I guess it does some, but not too much. Got a few more pictures. I only try to convince you to go ahead a do duals, because I'm guessing your not dead set on a single. Nothing worse than getting something, yet wishing you saved a little more for the best.

Lol. Thats so funny. I remember my dad speeching about that how used to, everyone would do that to make it seem like they had dual exhaust. I can only imagine what their excuse would be if you asked them why the exhaust was only coming out of one side and not the other!

Hah. I hear that! Just got my state taxes in a few seconds ago (was checking online).

I have a few videos. They all sound rather.. distorted. ODDY is the one that originally showed me a video and I was kind of hesitate on pulling the trigger. When I did, I wish I had done it earlier. Makes it sound like a true Mustang. It's what SHOULD of came on all the V6s. No drone either.

Bad videos but... [:'(]

(reason I moved the camera over to the other side was the very same reason that it is actual duals, not faked )

http://s17.photobucket.com/albums/b7...OV00800NEW.flv (at the end it looses a lot of sound quality )
