Topic: Magnaflow or Flowmaster with X pipe (off road)

[f1rstGt]

Im about to make this decision for my stang but cant make up my mind!

All my friends say Magnaflow, and my friend at the shop who is gonna do the work said Flowmaster will give me that true mustang sound. What to do???

[Soaring]

Not real sure what a "Real" mustang sound you are looking for, but the Mustangs did not come from the factory with Flowmasters.  The Magna's will give you more of a true Mustang sound.  The 2 chamber flowmasters will give you the loudest sound if that is what you are wanting.

thnxs, i just don't want to regret having a loud mouth mustang later on that i cant take to cruise around when i want to show the ride....

So Magna's will give me a deeper bolder sound, compared to flowmaster rasping much louder sound?

My friend has a 2003 GT and he put on the Magnaflow 15671 and the Magnaflow 93335 X-pipe.  It sounds good, nice and low rumble.  Look up some video clips on YouTube and compare the difference.  But Soaring is right, the 2 chamber Flowmaster will be louder, but won't be the deep sound like the Magnaflow.

BTW, is your Mustang the True Blue color?  That's one of my favorite colors.

Yeah already did that in YouTube  thnxs for the tip anyways. You think it will make a big difference in horses with or without the cat?? I don't want that check engine light on....

...and yes it is true blue. Loving it! Down here is pretty rare to see

So, what did you go with?

If you dont have cats your check engine light will stay on.

2000 Mustang GT BBK no cats Xpipe , CAI , 40 series

That is the exhaust I have.

Can't you reprogram the computer so the check engine light stays off? 

[stang98]

i'm sure you could. but im not sure how

[leverfever]

I'm running 2.5" flowmaster tips and mufflers with an x pipe. (not offroad though) on my 98 gt and it sounds great, very tamed untill 4000rpm which is my personal preference.

But the car i just bought came like this, if i was to do it myself i would slap on magnaflow to get that extra 2hp! Ill try and get a video up here after i wash it today.

f1rstGt, have you got your exhaust yet?

[Cobra GT]

I have Chokemasters on my Cobra w/ o/r BBK (shit) X-pipe and I hate it. I think the Flows sound good on push rod motors not mod motors. Get the Magnas.

How are the x pipes holding up Im on the fence about them and have heard the welds are weak?

[Wawahoagie]

I have magnaflow magnapacks on my 06 GT and they sound amazing.  I recommend magnaflows
