well...just when i was ready to take the stang out all summer long for all the joy rides...i got an OWI and cant drive for basically the entire summer...but, i wont have to spend a good 20-30 dollars a week for gas which will let me save a good 500 or so to drop on an o/r midpipe. i dont really want to waste the money right now though since im a college student if i dont get a good sound difference compared to it w/ just magnapacks on. it sounds real nice and deep now, but i want it to be louder & deeper...so what should i get...o/r x-pipe or h-pipe? if it doesnt really make a sound difference i was thinking about getting a new hood (maybe the stalker hood) for the looks...or just retint the windows & get all the scratches & crap repainted...or maybe even throw on some rims...my car is laser red & im not sure if black rims would look any good on them...but if not maybe some chrome cobra's or saleen's...who knows...any ideas or input on spending a good 500-1000 for a summer present for the stang?!
 
get an x-pipe IMO. I think they make better power. I mean if the did not manganflow, bassani, slp etc would offer h- pipes.

the best stainless option is VRS as it is the cheapest. magnaflow second cheapest.

I you want alumized to save money, look at the flowtech if you have a 5 speed. very cheap and the x is up closer to the collectors and this tends to make better power. It looks very similar to the dr. gas for a bout half the price.


ohh by the way with the packs you car will be very loud. some like it, some will wish they had went with cats.
 
yeah thats what i was thinking...some ppl i know said it would probably make it twice as loud which would be a definite plus, but then again they dont have stangs or magnapacks on their exhausts...the magnapacks are awesome and sound great...but after about a year they are just not as loud as it use to be! so i just didnt want to drop a good 500 dollars on parts & labor on a mod that i wont get that much from right now since im just another broke ol college student...should i match the midpipe w/ the catback (magnaflow)...or should i look for something like bassani?
