Get the double offset.SVOconvLX85 said:Which Ultra flow should I order, the one for the Mustang, or the universal one and at that, the center inlet/offset outlet, or offset inlet/outlet?

well yesterday when i was cruising gratiot, alot of people were challenging me in their huge muscle cars so they must have thought it was a 5.0, some were even scared to. and another guy even asked me if my 5.0 could take his 04 cobra
ok so if u do think it sounds bad, how do flowmasters sound on our cars? is it still slightly loud and deep? becuase i dont want to loose my new deep tone. its sexy

A single flowmaster 40 sounds really good. Mine was mistaken for a V8 a few times (albeit by people that probably don't know exactly how a V8 sounds)
well i think i am jsut going to go with no muffler, if anything i will put on a thrush resonator to add back pressure to prevent my valves from burning. all in all i like the sound, adding pipes will quite the sound down too, since mine exits under the drivers seat currently

Red_LX, you said the superturbos were too quiet. Is that the only reason you said to not get them. Are they performance worthy? Another question, if I bought the ultraflows and got 3 in. exhaust w/no cat, would my car sound like yours? I know you have max flows but I was wondering if they sounded similar.
Well, also like I said, I don't think the S-shaped flow path they use is very ideal for a turbo car. As for the sound- it would probably sound about the same, but then I have no way of predicting that. The max flows and ultra flows are the same design (straight through perforated core) but they may have different packing, etc.

ok for a super quiet set up what mufflers and pipe size for a na application cause its gonna be a couple years before I can go turbo.
So whats better for performance?
Pipe size, muffler type(cheap and quiet if possable).

Super quiet? Just get some "turbo" mufflers, they're about the quietest you can get, and if you get some of summit's own brand of turbo mufflers they're like $15 each. 2 1/4" pipe is about the best to go with.

I was looking on summit for some tailpipes. Should I get the flowmaster set or buy the dynomax pipes that are sold apart from each other and if I buy the dynomaxes, which part #'s because they all seem the same but are $47 and $54.
Make sure you check the size on the Dynomax tailpipes, they might be 2 1/4". I personally got the Flowmaster tailpipes for my thunderbird, and they're really nice.

The picture of Stinger's exhaust on his site looks like a mirror image of what it should be. The pic makes it look like the downpipe comes down from the left and cuts over to the right. You know what I mean? But other than that, do you like it on your bird? Did you notice a major power increase?
I have a picture of my exhaust laid out on the ground on my cardomain page if you wanna look at it.
Anyway, yeah I like it although I wasn't able to tuck it up under the car becaue the y-pipe was rubbing the driveshaft with the suspension at full droop. I suspect that might be just because of the Thunderbird being longer than a Mustang. Oh and yes, there was definitely a good power increase.

I've got a 2.5" Dynomax tailpipe that's stainless and it's nice! Check my website.Red_LX said:Make sure you check the size on the Dynomax tailpipes, they might be 2 1/4". I personally got the Flowmaster tailpipes for my thunderbird, and they're really nice.

I was checking on other forums and a couple people had the Sacramento 3 inch downpipe w/no cat into a 3 inch MAC system. Others had ATR and so on. Is the Sacramento downpipe that connects to the stock Y pipe any good? I was talking to a guy that has a custom Y pipe split into 2.5 inch duals that he wants to sell for 50 dollars. If I got the downpipe and the Y pipe, that would be saving a lot of money. They said nothing about the dynomax mufflers, they liked MAC and Magnaflow. Right now, dynomaxes are cheaper. Anyone care to reply to this?
If the y-pipe is in good shape, I think it's a good deal at $50. The rest of your questions I cannot answer.SVOconvLX85 said:I was checking on other forums and a couple people had the Sacramento 3 inch downpipe w/no cat into a 3 inch MAC system.
