exhaust&lowering question.

[evil95vert]

Have a 95 gt vert was considering aftermarket exhaust, I want to have an aggressive sound exhaust and im down to 2 choices. flowmasters or slp. I do know what flowmasters sound like and love the sound it produces but have not heard the sound of slp. any help on this please. also i bought trick1 lowering springs the car does have 275/40/17 all the way around 17/9 front 17/10.5 rear will i have any problems rubbing ? thanks p.s. the car will sit 1 and 1/2 inches lower then stock.

Ummm, why you banging your head over a lowering kit and wide wheels? You generally have some play when mounting a cat back, so rubbing should not be a problem.

i had the flowmaster forceII on my 94 gt and it sounded wayyy tooo close to stock. i swapped them for the slp catback and it sounds a million times better. a deep rumble, throaty, basically just mean. the 3 1/2 tips look a bit too big for my 94 but thats just personal preference i guess. id go with the slp.

I've got MAC Flowpaths, and they are very aggressive, they get my vote.

If you've still got the stock H pipe, then aftermarket mufflers won't sound that great or offer much volume difference. Get an H or X pipe with two or fewer cats and the sound/volume will change big time. I was dissapointed with my mufflers until I changed the mid-pipe, then the volume increased big time and it gets noticed.

Eventually, I'll get the Bassani catback to compliment the X. No matter what, get rid of the stock H.

Dugan Racing sells Trick One stuff, so you should be happy with the springs. Stock shocks/struts may hinder the quality of the ride. 1.5 inches is a good drop and shouldn't cause you any problems, unless you've got worn out suspension parts.

Good luck.

SLP!!! I was ready to order my Loudmouth until I ran into problems with the rearend of the car (bad pinion bearing + bad ring and pinion = lots of money for labor), so that killed my budget. I wish I could get it now but I guess I'll have to wait till sometime next year. But go for the SLP man, and try to post up some sound clips if you can if and when you get it.

You won't rub, I'm down 2.5 in the front and I don't rub on 275's, partially due to my camber. The rear is fine, no worries at all until you get really fat tires in the back. Exhaust wise, I haven't tried SLP but I hear good things and bad things about them. The good news is that they're loud and mean, the bad news is apparently they sound too hollow, and don't give off a typical mustang sound. I'd like to find a soundclip myself.....my car sounds like a nascar...i like that.

I know this isn't one of your choices but if you can sqeeze out the extra cash for a Bassani catback you will NOT be disappointed. A guy here at the car meets has one on his 95 GT with a Bassani offroad X pipe and it sounds MEEAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNN. I can hear him coming from like a mile away. Amazing sound. And the quality of bassani is top notch. No other company can touch it. Eventually i want to go to a full Bassani exhaust header back but that will ring you up close to $800.
