I went straight pipes...

It's kinda funny. I do everything in my power to try to make my 7.0L Mustang as quiet as possible (with moderate success) while everyone else is hacking off mufflers and cats.

Loud does not = Fast or Powerful

This i know. It is a preferance of mine to have a loud car, because i have always wanted one...never had one, besides the header leak on my monte...which wasnt a nice noise. It seems like you people dont understand that this is MY car, and that im customizing it to MY preferences. Just like mike customized his car to his preferences. (btw mike, beautiful car again!) I take pride in my car, so please dont shut it down because im doing something to it, its the same car yall have, so just shake and be friends, geez.

Yah, I was like that too when I was in my teens. I think most folks grow out of it. Once I have an extra nine grand to blow, I'm going to bolt on the quietest muffler I know...



...a GT42-80 :D

I did the same thing to my mark when I first got it, had the mufflers cut off and a 2.5 inch y pipe from the cat back put on. and I also installed a K-N panel filter. my car not only sounded better it also ran better. Andy you know I aint no hater. :cool: :cool:

thats fine, whatever floats your boat. If you were like "this" when you were younger, have faith, maybe i may grow up to be a dr paul clone or better yet, a mini me, that is what you want, isnt it?
 
The thing about hacking off the mufflers on these cars (at least the Gen 1 non LSCs) is that it's still fairly quiet. Last year my friend did exactly what MrWilson did and it's quieter than my ETC with Magnaflows.

Inspired by this thread, the fact that I was going to do some racing this evening, and the knowlege that it doesn't make the car too much louder, I went ahead and hacked the mufflers off my 94 today. It was on a whim at about 8, so there are no tips - doesn't look much different since the stock turndown tips are hard to see. I don't think I'll even bother adding tips until I do a full exhaust and cut a nice curved space for them in the bumper cover.

how do you like it?
 
It's louder but not too loud. The sound is OK, seems a bit higher pitched than a V8 should. But for $0 how can I lose?
 
I lopped mine off a month or so ago and added tips exiting behind the rear wheels... sounds good sometimes, depending on the rpm and throttle position.

I need to ditch the resonator & 3rd cat and see how it sounds...

Then I need to ditch the Y-connection and go true duals...

then ditch the cats and go high flow

then ditch the manifolds and go headers....

then ditch the heads and go 04 s/c

then ditch the mark and go lambo!

IT NEVER STOPS!
 
I just had my mufflers chopped off and added tips and must say, I love the look. The sound is decent but the look is sweet.
