| | | Borla Exhaust : need an mid Pipe, but need help..
Ok, heres the deal. I sold my 2001 true blue mustang back about a year ago do to the weather up here in New York. Well the winter turned out to not be bad at all, and i was set on buying a mustang the end of the summer, which I am doing. I have my eyes set on an 2000 black mustang gt. Im pretty much buying it. Its coming with upgraded suspension, cobra rear and side skirts. ( The cobra letters arent in the bumper, they have been removed, in case u were wondering).
My only problem is. Ive been an MAC exhaust guy. He has borla installed. I dont know much at all about Borla, or the stingers. Heres what he has http://www.borla.com/applications/lo..._System/14834/
What is a good setup to use, im thinking of keeping the Borla Catback, but can I still throw maybe a MAC Prochamger or H Pipe on there, or do I have to go a different route in maybe an X pipe.
I want the sound to be muscular. Thats my goal. The headers Ill decide on later, but if you want to add in header suggestions, go ahead. Thanks  |

I have the stingers, which are the round type, not the oval ones. Those are supposed to be quieter than what I have. The prochamber mid will give it an interesting sound that I personally love. Check my sig for a vid. |

I have that exact same system with a Bassani off road X-pipe. It sounds rowdy as all hell! In a good way!  The Borlas are a stright through design so combined with a good x-pipe, it will give you the NASCAR sound.  |

ive got the stingers with an slp catted x and it sounds nasty. I got a compliment not to long ago from a guy with an 01 cobra with bbk LTs and x with a magnaflow cb and his jaw just dropped when he heard that i dont have LTs yet he loved it.
here is the link to my sound clip http://youtube.com/watch?v=IvCteoccU68 |

hey guys, thanks alot for the information, looks like i cant lose on the midpipes. Im probably going to go with the prochamber, b.c the shop near me only used mac parts. www.mustangmagic.com , they install everything for really good prices, and have professionals, so i figure the prochamber will work best, and fit my price range, its actually really cheap compared to bassani/slp
again, thanks for all the help, really appreciate your time and answers  |
