I doubt 2000's exhaust is different than 97.

You need 2.25" offset/offset mufflers. No pic, but I just removed these mufflers off of my 97 because they sound LIKE **** with an O/R X pipe.

chambered mufflers sound bad with the style of x pipe BBk and bassani use...a lot of people really like the sound of the upr x with flows

what is offset/offset? is that the muffler that enters on the left on one side, and exits on the right on the other? also, why didnt you like the sound of flows w/ an o/r x? sounds like **** isnt too descriptive were they too raspy? drone? i really want a loud tone with a deep rumble and i wouldnt mind a LITTLE rasp to be honest

for the stock 2.25'' exhaust, the part number is 42443. I don't think you can get rid of the drone with a chambered muffler, and thats why I want to get rid of mine.

how bad is the drone? like "kill me now"? or "man this is annoying"? if you want to sell them, i'll buy em for a fair price. derekstanggt@austin.rr.com

also, when i get the flows, im gonna get some turndowns welded on and be done with the exhaust. do i still need the same part number? they will be welded onto my upr x, which i THINK is a 2.5" pipe if im not mistaken.

I drive at least 30 miles one way to work and school and I get headaches frequently...maybe its just me, but I hate the drone. If you still have the stock exhaust system, that is the correct part number...it has nothing to do with the midpipe. BTW, turndowns will be much louder.

Check my sig for a clip of just flowmaster 40's. I bought mine from http://www.ninosport.com/store/Mustang/item_Flowmaster.htm#Flowmaster Mufflers for pretty cheap ($56 each). I think it ended up being about $140 that includes installation at a local muffler shop.

Some can handle the drone and some cant. I have had mine since 250 miles on the car and I have over 12,000 on it since January. I love the sound, in fact for me its a bit quiet.
