Trying to pick a new catback
 
I am tired of my MacPro Dumps. I have been looking into getting something a bit tamer for DD duties and because of the nature of my job.

I have been looking at everything from Pypes Violators, to SLP LM2's or Powerflows and Even some Borla catbacks or even maybe magnaflow. I don't know. The car has a O/R H-pipe on it and stock manifolds for now. I won't be doing an X-pipe so you can shut that shit up now. I still want to hear the car, but I am tired of how loud it is inside the cabin.

thoughts?

man if you got the dime..borla is where it's at.

I remember having those SLP loudmouths..and the noise got old quick. I switched out the resonators for some flows..and the sound had a nice, refined, v8 sound. I loved it.

spike_africa 05-16-2010 02:26 PM

That's why it would be either Powerflows or LM2, but even the 2's I think would be annoying after a week and I would be back where I am now.

However I will never put fucking flowmasters on my car.

I had flowmaster 40's i think back exhaust... went with with roush side exhaust..sounds nice and what not.. doesn't have that raspy sound...and no droning..

BBK shorties--->BBK Chamber X-pipe ( no cats)--->magnaflow sides --> cheap ebay 2"x6" semi oval tips

Hooah! I think my favorite exhaust on here is bullitts, with violators and etc, however his is very loud.

Seriously though, the Borla's have a great mix of "OMFG that sounds great" and "Have you done anything to the exhaust?" That's really the best way to explain it. They're nice and quiet when you're just cruising, but when you decide to press the skinny pedal they come to life and sound amazing.

i love my slp powerflow o/r h combo

SeanStang 05-16-2010 08:07 PM

I LOVE your current setup. Im sure it could be a bit much for a dd though. I personally have always loved Bassani on the 2V's. They can be pretty pricey but awesome used deals always come up. I was recently looking around and picked up my MagnaFlow catback for only $120.

mustangvsix 05-16-2010 08:12 PM

maybe mangnaflows, definitely a lot quieter and since its a chambered muffler will keep that classic v8 sound.

Those are a straight through muffler. So it would sound different.

The car does sound good. Maybe I should just get the tail pipes put back on. I don't want a hack job though.

dam, well thats news to me, my brother has one on his V6, and my friends truck has some, and by there shape I just assumed....guess thats what I get, well they are sure quiet for being straight through. Guess its all that packing on the inside of them.

I agree with this.

Borla Stingers are the best catback out there hands down.

Flynnster 05-17-2010 05:31 AM

Stingers for sure, I don't know if they have them for your year, but the FRPP stingers are the exact samea s borla but $200 less. I know they have them for 05 adn up since that's what I have on mine.

Danimal1209 05-17-2010 05:56 AM

Violators get my vote. They sound great.

krazypony 05-17-2010 06:30 AM

I had a Mach1 that had borlas on it years ago, had to be the best exhaust I had ever heard...

i love them but for me its time to change it again...trying to do LTs, o/r x or h, and magnapacks

jjtgiants 05-18-2010 03:05 PM

If you have the scratch go with Borla's, but I always had magnaflows on my stangs. I liked the performance and sound. They are actually pretty mild sounding, but will make some noise when you get on them.

What do you want for the catback?

venom 05-19-2010 07:48 AM

I am planning on swtiching out my powerflos as well for something else.

krazypony 05-19-2010 09:32 AM

I have a friend that has a s197 w/ Corsa catback setup and that thing sounds like a all out nascar setup... was awesome when we went on a mtn run recently and went under a bridge and he hit the exhaust and BAAMMMM! BAMMMM!!! it was freaking loud!
