how will this exhaust sound

i think the sound would be restrictive with stock cats...it would still sound good but just a little quieter than with no cats....the only thing i would worry about is gettin an inspection sticker because my buddy has a 454 SS truck and he has the tail pipes dumping out infront of the rear tires and they wont give him a sticker....unless you know someone that can hook you up i say go for it....although it might look funny in the rear where it concaves for the pipes if there are none there

Buy an aftermarket H-pipe with cats then add your mufflers to the setup.

It'll sound a lot nicer (meaner) after that

Side-pipes are tough to do on a Fox-body without sacrificing ground clearance. Been there, done that; sounded great, looked okay, but trying to navigate around speed humps all day sucked.

Flowmaster 40's, in and of themselves, tend to drone. Couple that with even shorter-than-stock tailpipe tubing, and you're gonna hate it on the highway (unless you're running high enough gears to get you out of the drone range of RPM's). It won't be horribly loud, but louder than a cat-back Flowmaster setup.

Buy a pair of tailpipes of your preferred flavor for $100 to $150 - stainless, aluminized, or chrome (Dynomax, Flowmaster, or MAC) - and a pair of flow tubes ($40), and then plug on whatever pair of muffs you want. Clamping it together instead of welding it gives you the option of swapping in another brand later, if you don't like the results.

If you're determined to stick with Flowmasters, look into the Delta Series, which are a quieter and a bit less prone to drone; otherwise, any straight-through design muffs would be ideal (Magnaflows, Edelbrock RPM's, Dynomax UltraFlows, Hooker Maximum Flows, etc.) for great WOT sound and an idle with a burble, excellent flow rate, and a lack of drone.

it will sound good but would sound 10 times better without the stock cats.

He's not talking about a Fox. I think SN95's are not like that with side exhaust. At least I know there's ALOT of SN95 people running side exits .... and I haven't heard them complain about it yet.

And 6Speed, I don't see why that guy would have problems with inspections ... I mean, afterall, some vehicles come with side exhaust from the factory. (i.e. .... Lightning)

A stock '94 has 4 cats! Get those outta there A.S.A.P. Either get a mid pipe with 2 high flows cats OR an O/R X pipe, O/R H pipe, or Flowmaster D pipe. It will sound amazing.

mac pro chamber is supposed to sound good too, but offroad h pipe is like 115 bucks from jegs, can't beat it lol prob hard to fit, but it will go on -i got a mac off road - sounded mean as hell - would'nt trade it for the world

well the reason is the 94 cobra didnt come with side exhaust from the factory...so inspection places would give you a hard time...i know its stupid but here in mass, they do a lot of stupid things.

hey, comming from another 94 cobra, you minus well go for the gold, and get a full system. like darkwritter said, for the catback, you can alwatys peice it together yourelf, but definitly get the headers and h\x pipe too. here's ashort clip of mine.http://www.geocities.com/nazstang/941.WMV
