Need help/opininons about exhaust setup

Stang4life · 08-08-2007, 01:05 AM

Hey guys, im new to the forum but not mustangs. I just picked up my second stang, Its a 02, 5spd, coupe. But cant choose a exhaust setup for it.

These are my choices/ would like to have.

BBK Lt, BBK OR/H, and magnaflow catback or steeda catback

Or

Mac LT, MAC Prochamber, and Magnaflow or Steeda catback or maybe borla

Which setup do you think will be louder and sound the best?

I'd steer away from BBK.Alot of quality problem's.

Go full Mac and don't look back.

Or go with SLP LT's,SLP shortie o/r X,and Magnapack's,and wake the dead lol

Ya i heard some bad things about BBK and never really like any of thier products but i just recently heard some exhaust setups with the LT's and a OR/H and had to say it sounded pretty sweet.

But i think and have been leaning towards Mac LT's and Prochamber with magnapack cb.

Well both the magnaflow and steeda/borla (borla makes the steeda catback) will sound similar as there just straight threw mufflers. So it doesnt really matter go with what is cheaper to get is my answer.

I have the Bassani X Pipe and Cat back, and i love it. Its got a perfect sound, and looks great. If you want to fork out the extra $$$, go with Bassani.

Would you happen to have a sound clip or vid of your Bassani X Pipe and Cat back?

Steeda97 · 08-08-2007, 06:04 PM

Possibly, i'll see if i can get my digital camera and make a video clip tomorrow.

I've got bbk lt, bbk o/r x and maganaflow cb (not the packs) and I would buy it all over again. I've never seen or heard about any quality issues with bbk on the 4 mustangs that I've seen them on.

The sound is almost like stock at idle just a little deeper and slightly louder. Cruising speeds you can tell that it is not stock but it's not that loud. WOT it sounds mean as hell but not rediculous. Absolutely no droning at high speeds either.

Good luck whatever you go with.
