I own a 2000 GT that has a UPR O/R X-pipe already installed. I am not interested in replacing the mid-pipe, but I would like to know which cat-back exhaust to go with. I am looking at either Magnaflow with magnapacks or Flowmaster with 2-chamber mufflers. I have heard that resonators such as Magnaflow or SLP sound better with X-pipes. I don't need to have the loudest (and most cop-attention-getting) Mustang out there, but I don't want it to sound crappy either. I'm not afraid of a little rasp that the X-pipe gives off.

Please advise me as to what you think would be the best choice, especially if you have experience running a non-catted X-pipe with a cat-back system from Magnaflow, Flowmaster, or SLP.

Thanks in advance for your help!

SLP Loudmouth 2 - great sound, awesome tone, but not over the top like my Stinger system.

Go with the Flowmaster Catback. That's the same set up I have. Trust me, you will not disappointed. There are women that love the way my car sounds. I constantly get compliments and props on the sound.

My fiance was driving it and a guy followed her across the street to Home Depot to ask her what in the hell kind of exhaust was on it.

It's loud, but the Flowmasters add a rumble to it so that it doesn't sound raspy. It was a guy in a Cobra that wanted to get the same set up because he wanted his car to sound like that...

Magnaflow or Borla HANDS DOWN. I love magnaflows, and am currently switching back (from borla stingers, just a lil to loud for my taste, but both have similar notes, and are very nice).

I'm a Bassani fan. I think any mid pipe with a bassani behind it sounds awsome.

Magnaflow sounds the best on 3v and 4v motors in IMO who agrees? I heard them on the Cobra's and 05's GT

bassani sound good as well, but to me the magnaflows kick ass.

they have all the deep tone qualities of the flowmaster's without the drone.

Magnaflows kick ass. I've got mine paired with a Bassani o/r x and it's got a great deep tone w/out the drone.
