How do I get my 07 to sound like my 91? The 91 has O/r Hpipe, LT Headers and americian thunder Catback. The 07 has flowmaster axelback but to be honest, I don't like the sounds of the new stangs so far.

You drop a 302 windsor in it. You may get your car loud/deep like your 91 but it won't sound like your 91 because the engine construction, harmonics and dynamics are totally different.

And also why the 05+ sounds different is muffler placement. 91s were placed in the middle and 05+ are placed behind the axle.

I understand the muffler placement and dynamics and on and on. I have heard several that say there combos sound the best. However, still haven't found one that just sounds good... I have heard rumor that there is a muffler set up that moves ours before the axel and makes it sound more 86-96, anyone seen this or have a sound bite?

I think the flow masters sound just as good as the rest by the way, I haven't heard any dollar per dollar that stick out from the others.

Us there anywhere people have posted audio of different ones?

Pypes makes a midmuffler system. I haven't heard it in person, but on video it sounds good. Some people have issuses with them fitting properly. If you get this system, you might want to have a muffler shop install it.

+1 on the Pypes Mid Muffler system. Had I known / been out when I was in the market fo an exhaust I probably would have gone with it.

I've got Magnapacks welded up as a mid muffler system. The Pypes or the Magnapacks, like mine, sound like OBS Mustangs. It sounds a lot better though.

How much was it to get the magnpacks made into a midmuffler?

I believe they are getting loader. Yesterday in the parking garage, I set off the alarm in the truck that was parked in the row behind me. When I started my car, I heard the alarm chirp and when I backed up, the alarm went off.

My buddy is the one who owns the muffler shop so I just bring him the stuff and he does it for a beer.

Interesting. So basically he just moved the muffler to the middle? What about the tips. Did he cut them off an re-weld them on?

I already had SLP LMS so that solved the tips issue. I just bought the Magnaflow Magnapacks, not the kit, and just had them spliced into the factory exhaust system right before the axle.

Okay, So the magnapack are more or less used as a resonator?
