ravins sound good they don't have deflectors like flowmaster i think they sound teh better at least at upper rpms sound more like a v8 instead of a v6 trying to pretend to be one ( i would know having both flows and ravins on my car) i also installed a o/r X pipe when i put the ravins on but meh that shouldn't make too much difference

I'm not trying to start a flame war here, but v6's don't sound nice having v8 type exhaust systems. I would chop the one exhaust pipe off (for a cleaner look) and not go with anything other than a factory muffler. Or I would get an exhaust muffler I once saw on a toyota supra which is also a six. (I know many people here are opposed to "import" type mufflers, but this one looked reallyand sounded clean and it wasn't 4" in diameter.) Just my .02 cents.

Again, I didn't mean any disrespect.

dumbass

there not "v8 type exhausts" dumbass they don't sound as good because there is less exhaust coming thru the pipes (read: 2 less cylenders) if you think dual exhaust is for v8's only your too ignorant to own a mustang and i demand you sell your stang and go buy a mullet mobile ASAP

Be nice 97v6Silver!

You don't need to get a pre-made cat-back exhaust system welded in. I put my first exhaust system (MAC) on myself with handtools and never had any problems with it moving around. So don't waste money on precautions that aren't needed.

I'm too ignorant?

I was just stating that most sounds that a v6 produces don't sound as nice as a v8. You could have dual exhaust on a v6, but please don't try to add flowmasters or any other muffler that creates a tone. It doesn't sound right(this is just my opinion)

Mount the system, then measure how much room you have to complete the system. Just don't let the tips stick way out behind the car.

I'm partial to chrome tips stating as far back as possible toward the axle U bend in the cat-back system. I like to see a little chrome way back under the wheel wells.

ok, now i can say something here, you say they cant sound as good as a V8, wrong, they wont know unless you floor it, i have had people comment on my nice sounding V8 several times, only to have tell them it's not a V8, and they still want to count the plug wires

Give Magnaflow's a thought

One of our local V6 Mustangs has the Magnapacks GT cat-back and you can't even tell that the car has a V6 - it sounds more like a V8. There's mid-pipes made, too, that easily allow you to connect up to the GT cat-backs (I believe all you would need would be the extra hangars from Ford). If you want to sound loud, this might be an option.
