Bought '07 GT in early Sept. Looking to improve exhaust sound and flow. Need help in choosing right system. Don't know difference between cat- and axle-back or sound quality of different systems. Any input greatly appreciated. Also, can a guy with three thumbs install these systems?
Thanks. Sweet Lew/sweetlew2you@hotmail.com.

honestly, ford did a pretty good job with the exhaust system on our cars. Unless you get into off-road mid-pipes and headers, you won't see a power difference in the cars by simply just changing the axleback. Just select whatever axle-back you think sounds best and you're set

Axle Back

I've been told that Bassani is "the way to go". Would you agree?

Drone sucks, which bassani has a lot of. And it's very expensive. Personally, i think SLP is the best route to go but it's ultimately up to you.

I've got Magnaflow. It is louder than stock and compared to Bassani it's a steal. The entire muffler and tip is highly polished unlike others that only polish the tips. Any of the big named systems are good.
