Very loud and raspy. You might wanna put some mufflers on there trust me, loud is cool and all but after a few months it wont be anymore.

Don't get your tips 4 inches either, thats a little ricey. I think mine are 3.5" (maganpacks) and they are as big as anyone should have on a mustang. I'm not trying to diss v-6's either, but not 4 inches especially on a v6. I think 4 would be too much an a GT.

Also, think about switching to an H pipe also. X will be super raspy since its a sixxer. You can still get a loud sound with an H pipe and it will make it sound more like a "mustang", nice and deep. I know someone with an X on their v6 and its alright, but he put an H pipe on because he got one for like 90 bucks used and it sounded so much better. Just make sure you know what you want when it comes to exhaust because you have to hear it every day.

As we speak i have no mufflers it sounds kind of gurgly and not soo good. I'm waiting for my borla side exhaust to get installed. As long as you have cats it wont be that bad.

On my old V6 I just chopped off the old mufflers and put on magnaflows and changed the tips and it sounded just fine stock.

There are a lot of side exhaust kits for Mustangs. I'll assume you have a V6 since it's the V6 forums. Here's a few links:

Roush
Classic Design Concepts
Spintech
Steeda

And I know there are some I'm missing. The CDC one is cool because it comes with side skirts and dual exhaust hole covers for GT owners, Roush has custom sides too.
