A couple days ago i had a pacesetter adapter kit installed on my 95( http://www.americanmuscle.com/pacesetter-adapter-kit-9498v6.html ) along with a set of flowmaster origianl 40 series mufflers. i did this because i hate how quiet my v6 was so i wanted to give it a little tone. I left the tailpipes off and just had turn down tips put on there. i like the way the car sounds when it idles but not when i drive it. My whole car vibrates and it sounds like there's something wrong with my car rather than something good has been done to it. I ordered some stainless steel tailpipes to have installed instead of the turn downs in hopes of getting the tone i want. ( http://www.americanmuscle.com/mustang-tailpipes-8697-v8.html ) Any advice? keep in mind i'm a college kid so i'm not trying to kill my pockets.

When an exhaust is quiet it's not always easy to tell if it's a V6 or V8. When the exhaust is louder, it's easy to tell. By putting loud mufflers on your 6 banger, you're just making it clearly evident what you have. You'll never get the throaty low tone of a V8. The adding of tailpipes should quiet the interior down significantly.

That's not really advice but thanks anyway.

its sounds like you are wanting a V8 exhaust note with you V6 powered car, and that wont happen. the best thing you can get is to get the engine to sound like a six cylinder porsche when you are on the throttle, and that usually means adding a resonator to the system. i like the twin outlet tailpipe resonators from pace setter.
