What's the best sounding muffler?

PearlWhiteGT · 01-09-2007, 10:09 AM

I'm looking for something that is more deep & aggresive that what I have now. I have a 1990 GT with a bbk headers, o/r x-pipe & dynomax bullets dumped. Don't mind that they are loud but want something that sounds deep & aggresive.

everyone usually goes with offroad h pipe and 2 chamber flows with the 5.0....i went a little different route but i need to find the right mufflers.....tough descision go with what you think sounds best....it is gonna take a few hit and miss but hey thats why we are here

Every exhaust system needs a turbo or two

Stang6uy · 01-10-2007, 09:51 AM

go pro chamber and mac catback..........this sounds good aswell.........

PearlWhiteGT · 01-10-2007, 10:19 AM

Does Bassanni sound good on a 5.0? I like the way they sound on a 4.6 but not sure how they sound on a pushrod motor.

Mustang Exhaust
Asking what the best sound is, is like asking what everyone's favorite food is, your gonna get all kinds of answers.
imo, the 2 chamber/h-pipe is so played out, but it sounds pretty good.
I run 3 chamber flow's and x-pipe dumped, get's complimants everywere i go.

The h-pipe gives a deeper sound than the x imo, you might look into spintech's, or mac's.

Machine · 01-10-2007, 01:14 PM

+1 on the macs...I'm running an offroad H and Macs on my 05 and I love it - I am gonna switch to a prochamber for my midpipe thought to finish out the sound...

He has an o/r x-pipe with magnaflow mufflers.

I have magnaflow's too and love the deep rumble. Bassani or Macs will be lounder, but to me, they are too raspy. It all depends on what you like, but for me and Boyd Coddington, it's magnaflow!

joestang96 · 01-10-2007, 08:57 PM

i have bassani o/r x with 2 chamber original 40s catback on my 4.6.... i love it.

on a 5.0, i like the h-pipe & 2 ch. flows combo

thanks David

O/rX with Magnaflow catback on a 4.6.

I don't know what to tell you about a 5.0. Maybe come out to biffs sometime and listen to some cars.

black sunshine · 01-10-2007, 11:02 PM

I pack a Dr. Gas X-pipe with spintech's which sounds pretty aggressive and not to loud .

Lifted78Chevy · 01-16-2007, 06:44 PM

03svtsnakevert · 01-16-2007, 09:47 PM

dynomax race bullets...very aggressive sound

PearlWhiteGT · 01-17-2007, 09:05 AM

I'm running the race bullets now but not happy with them. I want something just as loud but deeper. SSS exhaust will have some mufflers for a 5.0 in about a month.
