Default FLowmasters too quite

My flowmasters are too quite for my taste. When i got the car they were nice, then i put dumps on them, made em a little louder inside my vert. but still not loud enough to make my stang stand out. I really don't have the money for a h or x pipe right now, it may be a while before i get the money actually i have other things i need to pay for first. What is a way to make my car louder with out spending more than lets say out $35-50??

where can i get em and how much?? or would it be hard to go drop the h-pipe and cut 1 or 2 cats off each side, since my car had 6 cats total!! and see how it sounds, but still have a cat(s) there??

tried that on my last stang, and my parents almost killed me. But by the time they caught it, it was too late i had already sold my mufflers for $150.But i did love the way it sounded, that was on my 98 gt.

i did mine for a day and i left the mufflers hanging and put one bolt back in to hold the mufflers above my h pipe. i could get under there and hook the mufflers back up without wrenches in case i needed to be quiet. worked out well. and your right, it does sound pretty badass.

You could do is cut off the mufflers, replace that with a straight pipe or flex tubing, To keep the tips, I did that to keep the tips, sounds good, loud, & my parents dont mind it!

Yup, just save some more money and buy a new midpipe. My car is pretty loud, but not annoying. Don't go for annoying loud just to be loud.
