final5-0 Mustang Master Apr 6, 2003 6,817 12 79 DFW Texas May 8, 2009 #3 May 8, 2009 #3 Exhaust threads are usually focused around ... NOISE Of course ... We always want to gain ... More POWER I won't even get into the noise thing We all have our idea of what sounds ... Good or Bad As for power ... and ... More specifically A mod that yields good power for the buck spent Exhaust mods suck A catback on a stock or bolt on Stang ......... Well ... it is gonna give very little if any gain in power To get a real noticeable power gain with a catback The change would have to be really radical like A Stang with well over 300 moving from OEM to high performance CB Now ... If you got some long term plans that include mucho power I'd be concerned about what you are doing at this time but If you just wanna do something that sounds better Weld in some muffs that you think would make you happy better yet Copy from another Stanger who has got something that sounds good Grady

You might be able to tell if both are dumped. 2.5" vs. 3" seemed to bring on a different tone.... but nothing earth shattering. Just minor differences...
