How loud??
 
I have single chamber flow masters on my stang right now...im dropping the stock midpipe on saturday and replacing it with an off road x pipe( no cats). I am just wondering how loud its going to be when i go from 4 cats to none, its really not that loud now.

I ran flows w/ dumps with my bassani catted x and it was pretty loud, like no car alarm anywhere was safe with me around but it wasn't so much that cops never left me alone about it. without cats it changed the sound type but not so much the volume... I think catless cars sound like azz but if you like em' that's your bag.

Broseph357 09-13-2006 02:10 PM

by dumps do you mean the kind where u can switch it to open? and did u have singles on their or the 2 chamber flowmasters?

basicaly once you hit 3grand it screams

can we really call that street racing? Looks to me like you guys shut it down not too long after crossing the speed limit. BTW... the RSX kill... not even a fair race. Nice.

I has single chamber Flow's on my Gt at one time and they sounded damn good.A buddy of mine has them and a SLP X pipe with cat's and it sound's damn mean and loud.

actually....the rsx was beating me before he switched out his headers for a while....but anyway point of video being posted was for the sound purpose the commentary is unrealted to this thread just trying to give the guy a sound clip n help out a little

i think the type S was doing pretty well for himself, Ive taken them with out a seconds hesitation... but I guess the situations were different and his 6 gears prolly help a bit lol... easy victory from a stand still =D
I have magnaflows... they sound amazing, but I think I will get a nice X pipe so they are a bit louder in volume.

by dumps I mean a total lack of tail pipes... my pipes end 2" after the muffler. The flows were originally 2 chambers but then I got a wild hair and cut them open and pulled out half the guts for more sound. Bad idea... mega resonance inside the cabin.

Broseph357 09-14-2006 09:57 AM

yea....single chambered flows sound very different from the 40 series and what not...its a different pitch all together. Thats why i was wondering if my config will sound like " azz"

Here is my old setup 2chamber with catted xpipe with an OR xpipe it will sound way louder. https://mustangboards.com/mustang/pi...to/210/cat/508


BTW when you do video clips cut out all the music so we can hear your exhaust better.

r3dn3ck 09-14-2006 11:09 AM

that sounded pretty good... makes me wish they didn't resonate so much inside my car.

dookie2365 09-14-2006 05:06 PM

thats why i went with magnaflow...i heard they had no resonance that the flows make..proved true

r3dn3ck 09-14-2006 05:16 PM

I switched to borla's for the same reason. They're basically the same as magnaflow but with a shiny case... and they were freebies.

Not to start any problems or anything but the k-series engine is not that slow
and with i/e/h/ecu i can stay with modded gt easy

From a roll yes most definatly, but dead stop not a chance unless the RSX is on a BFG, and a very good driver....otherwise Mustang FTW

ALL MOTOR DC5 09-16-2006 08:20 AM

ofcourse look a the tourqe difference stock for stock.....atleast on 99 and up stang its 302 compared to 137 def gunna need some slick drag radial or other good street tires

Broseph357 09-17-2006 06:46 PM

Yay, i got the exhaust. O my god is it loud....it sounds like a racecar or soemthing, but truly unique. I am so going to get pulled over lol.

what did you get? i said same thing...luckily my dad is a cop.

stanger00 09-18-2006 05:26 AM

i have a bassani o/r x pipe with magnaflows and that **** is redicolus loud. gonna take out the race sleeves and add some cats to quiet it down some.

that damn x pipe shifted my tail pipes on my test drive and i melted my bumper beating the crap out of a 2005 m3. well worth it. cobra bumpers too come soon.

Broseph357 09-18-2006 05:26 AM

Single flows and a generic off road x pipe. The x pipe hangs down a little low, is that normal?

stanger00 09-18-2006 05:38 AM

put a jack under it and try to push it up with the cat back clamps loose and tighten down the clamps. i havent seen my car in 5 months but i remember it hangin low.
