Hello all,
I am looking to buy a new exhaust system for my car. I am finishing this years mods and before I put it back on the ground I want to install a new exhaust. It's way overdue. I've been needing to change it for some time now...I changed out my damaged rear GT bumper cover for a Cobra one and now can change out the dumps at the bumper for some tail pipes. I currently have the Mac setup and it looks odd with the dumps hanging below the bumper cover. Anyways, I changed out my headers for BBK 1 3/4 long tubes and a new 2.5" X pipe. I hooked the exhaust up out of curiosity and started it, and it sounds way more raspy than before. I am not really bothered by that, but I still need a new exhaust.
I really do like the sound of Mac, their mufflers are sort of tailored to that deep throaty mean sound. I have relatives that have a 393 fox with Mac Pro Dumps, and I really, really love the way it sounds. It's been a few years since I've rode in it, but I remember a lot of loud resonating while sitting inside of the car. I do not drive the car often, but on a nice day when I do decide to pull it out of the garage for a cruise or take it to work, a degree of comfortability is important..especially if my wife is with me. Also, with the Mac Pro Dumps, I am pretty concerned about the fumes coming into the car while moving at low speeds/sitting still. I really do like the sound of the Dumps, but I will be rather upset with the fact I wasted money if I am not happy with the "experience" of them. With all that in mind, I am looking for an exhaust setup with a sound like that of the Mac Pro Dumps with tailpipes. Alternatively, I will go with the Dumps if my concerns can be eased with others opinions/experiences.
I have watched probably hours worth of exhaust clips on Youtube over the course of time I've been considering a new exhaust, and videos do not do justice most of the time. So any input is appreciated, and I hope I provided enough information as to what I am looking for. Thanks!
