Ok got the tax money back and first thing on the list is getting rid of the stock mid-pipe as soon as possible....I have a magnaflow catback....here are my three options I have decided on let me know which one you would pick and why, and if anyone has sound clips please include them, cause I am having a horrible time making up my mind.....

1. MRT catted h-pipe....cons=costs more then the others..pros= deep sound, stainless steel
2. mac prochamber with cats cons=not stainless steel..pros=deep sound good price
3. slp catted x-pipe cons=I have heard it will sound bad, and not as deep..pros=good price stainless steel can convert to off road easily

4. Magnaflow Catted X, it's a natural fit, sounds great and nice boost in power. I've had mine for 4 years on 2 different Stangs, I love it.

Agreed. I suggest sticking with the brand name you already have for supreme fitment. Magnaflow makes quality products.

Are you sure you have the Magnaflows or do you have the Magnapacks??

I had an O/R H with the Packs and it gave off this annoying tin metal machine gun noise between 3-5k, was terribly annoying. I then switched to the Magnaflow catback and couldnt be happier. Very DEEP sound and no rasp or machine gunning what so ever. I also have LT's, but I wouldnt think the Magnaflows even with just an O/R H would produce that tin noise.

prochamber without a doubt. Its an x pipe with h pipe tq. Makes the car sound great and well i will put money on it that you will never see it rust out. The new ones are also black which helps.

Very good choice going with the Catted MRT-H. It is one of the best mid pipes around according to MustangExhaust.com . It’s what I will be getting sometime in the summer.
