Making a Mustang sound like a Ferrari

sixstringthing · Oct 2, 2004

Is there any exhaust that will make a GT sound like a v8 Ferrari at higher RPMs? I don't mean just high pitched and raspy for the hell of it, I mean really close to that smooth exotic "wail" at the higher RPM's? At lower RPM's, idle etc. I dig the muscle car tone but when your on the highway at WOT, those exotics sound amazing IMO.

X-pipes can sometimes sound exotic...especially if on DOHC motors.

Well, i dont think it is possible to get it exactly there because the ferraris rev to like 8 grand, or at least the 360 modena does. The only thing I could tell you is an X pipe and maybe some straight through muffs. Good luck.

Nope... not possible. The 4.6L at 6000 rpm will never sound like a fine tuned 3.6L at 8000rpm.

Sorry.

Yeah not gonna happen. You have to understand that the ferrari sound comes from the design of the engine itself. When they make the bock and the heads they do it with the legendary sound in mind. The mustang has also a very distinctive high rpm wail that i love and i think the MAC and Magnaflow cat-backs bring it out the most. They realy bring out that scream that mustangs make, where as the flowmaster stuff just makes that low growl of all the muscle cars.

of course you can, just drop a 3.6L Ferrari V8 in there

A recipe for a ferrari exhaust sound:

Remove 4.6L v8

Install 3.8 v6

Add glass-packs

Never leave 1st gear, even on highway

Enjoy.

Or, convert your v8 to a flat 8.

Get Ferrari Mufflers and exhaust, and custom weld/fit them to the stang?

The high revs are a big part of it. Sometimes the crotch rockets approach the sound when they are being wound out.
