You bought an MRT h pipe, and you are telling us that Flowmaster is too expensive?


haha


Anyways.. If flowmaster is too expensive for you than the only other option I can think of is MAC.


If money is not an issue, I'd say Borla (Im patial to this decision) or possibly Bassini.

MRT H=, Mac all the way man , Mac + MRT H on a cobra =
I was very close to ordering the MRT H today but I'm going to wait till I do my next oil change. Post some vids or sound clips when you get it.

Flowmaster... expensive???? no.... Bassani is expensive, as in $700.

I just bought a new flowmaster catback off ebay for $295 shipped. I'm only buying it for the tailpipes though. I'm going to weld in FR500 dual-mode mufflers and MRT chrome tips.

Perfect fitment on the mrt H. I couldnt picture any better.


I believe that its worth the extra penny, it's a get what you pay for kind of thing.


I'm not a big fan of Flowmaster. A few of the mustangs I've heard.. It is loud, and below about 2500 rpm it sounds pretty mean.

I personally (this is pretty harsh) consider flowmaster the rice of mustang exhaust.


No offense to those who have it.. I've just never heard a setup sound good with flowmaster.

Not if you get the SS version of the catback.
