I'm happy (awesome sound and nice kick in teh pants performance wise) with Magnaflow catback and Magnaflow Catted X on mine, but there are a fair amount of good systems for our car ie, Borla, Bassani, SLP.

P.S. There's tons of info on this if you do a search.

That is what is so great about the 4.6 and little mods. Mods around the 150-300 dollar range.
Pullies
Bigger Throttle Body
Plenum
Filter
Catback
X-pipe
Those are some very basic mods that shouldn't void it at all. Of course dealerships are a pain when it comes to mods and warrenty. Good luck.
I just ordered the SLP exhaust myself...

Plus if you need to, they are relatively easy to swap in front of your house if you're worried about the dealer giving you some flak.

How loud is decently loud. I've gone to Mustang Exhaust and I can hear the tone of them but the sound is relative to how close or far away the mic is. Is it 50% louder, twice as loud? Not many mustangs out up north yet to ask them what they have .

What about if you went with Catted X/Magnapack?

I don't know much about warranties. Never been a big fan of them so tomorrow my BBK ceramic-coated Long Tube Headers w/ BBK Shorty O/R X-pipe will be installed connecting to the otherwise stock Cat-back w/ welded in Flowmaster 40-series 2 chamber Mufflers.
