Dr. Gas with Magnaflow/Magnapacks will give you the most power.

Why is everyone going for Dr. Gas? I always thought Bassani to be a great X pipe. Just curious as to your reasons!

Keep the votes comin!

bbk / dr gas / flowmasters

T&J swear by this combo and have shown it to make more horsepower and tq then dr having magnaflow magnapacks on instead of flows www.modularfordpowerhouse.com not to mention you save money going with flowmaster too comparing it to the $400+ magnaflows

I read an older post from Tim @ T&J's Performance, and he has tons of experience with mustangs. He says the best power is made with a Dr. Gas and Flows set-up.

My best is a 14.1 with a 2 second 60 foot time. I would say this is due in part to my current catback is a pos that my friend and I made ourselves. The car is running good 1/8 mile times, so this is why I am pursuising a new cat back.

If you want to go catted, go bassani (I have a full bassani set up and i love it) however, you cannot argue with numbers, and the Dr. Gas gives amazing numbers. The only thing is that it is an o/r pipe. Personally, I would go with the magnapacks for the catback over the flowmaster. They flow better and imo they have a better sound.

If they flow so good, why is Tim from T&J having a better result with Flowmaster? Just curious.

Go with Magnapacks and magnaflow x-pipe. You will find it pretty cheap on
www.mustangexhaust.com the cost is so low they can't even advertise it on their website due to regulations set by Magnaflow. Once you go in there all you have to do is request that they email you a link with the prices.You will get the email within a couple of minutes.
