magnapacks + ___-pipe...?

[Q's Stang]

alright ive been posting crap up a lot towards exhaust threads and i plan on getting a midpipe put on before summer is over...i already have magnapacks & they are good...but i want it LOOUUUDDERRR with the same deepness but more throatier i guess! i cant really explain it with words and i doubt anybody else could either...i hear all this talk about go x-pipe or go h-pipe...or even go prochamber...but i dont want to pick one and be disappointed with the investment...does ANYBODY have any clips of their 99-04 stang w/ packs and an o/r midpipe...or even a regular midpipe just so i can have some clue what to expect?!!?!

O pipe, most definately!

Listen to Spreadman's car with the packs and the matching Magnaflow x. I think it sounds damn good.

 

[MaxxMundo]

Yeah, Spreadman's car is how I narrowed it down to the Magnaflow catted-x or the Prochamber. Now I've got to decide between those.

 

[hognutz]

I would run the magnaflow catted x.

O/r pipe with packs is too much noise for me.

I would not run the prochamber due to it not being stainess.

I am pretty sure mustangexhuast.com has clips of all these combo's

If you want ensane loud, get an off-road X. I think you'd be more than happy with a Bassani or Magnaflow Catted X. But if I had to do it over again, I'd buy the Magnaflow X. It's alot cheaper than the Bassani, but both are still great quality. And I still love my Bassani though. You won't believe the sound difference once the mid-pipe goes on.

yea i dont think it could get "too loud" for me...so i was planning on going o/r and i really wanted to match the catback w/ the midpipe (both magnaflow)...but some ppl were saying that the h makes it deeper which would be a plus...so who knows!

 

[Q's Stang]

and also there was a thread w/ a guy from cali who had a white mustang w/ clips of him pulling out on a road & flooring it...i never caught his name and couldnt find it a week or two later...does anybody remember that thread to help me find what his exhaust setup was like?

 

[timeless2]

x pipe.......any brand.......will match the straight flow best for what you are looking for

well the reason magnaflow makes an x and not an h is that they were able to make more power with the x pipe. the magnaflow rep that post here has said that many times. The only h-pipe I would run is mrt and it is way over priced so I just don't see the point in an h-pipe. yesterdays technology.

As for never being too loud make sure you listen to clips as the packs are very loud off road. they also get a tone I don't like with an off road pipe. I don't like loudmouth or pack with an o/r pipe. IF you like the sound of open exhaust you will like it. I personally like the sound of a muffled exhaust better that wide open.

 

[Q's Stang]

yeah...i cant find any clips of a GT with packs and an o/r x-pipe to save my life though...!

 

[tdaily2]

i have the Prochamber with magnapacks and mac lt and it sounds so good i would not change a thing

 

[SRT Handz]

Upr X!!!!

See sig, it's awesome, but if you want louder and deeper your gonna want a Prochamber or some type of off-road H pipe. X pipes give a higher pitched more exotic tone. O/R X will be just damn loud and a bit raspy I believe.

Is your Magnaflow X pipe louder than just the PACKS with the stock h-pipe? And is it catted?

I had the packs at first with my stock H and swapped the Maggie catted X on and I can say it's a bit louder and it is catted, I didn't wanna have to bother swapping it off for emissions every couple of years. Combined with the catback, there's a noticeable increase in power.

 

[CaliLifeStyle]

O/R X pipes just snap, crackle, pop too much for my likeing. I heard a Cobra with a Bassani O/R X and Bassani Cat-Back and it crackled and popped way too much. I did not like it at all. However, my catted Bassani X with the Bassani cat back sounds a whole lot better. Go catted X with the 'Packs.

 

[96WhiteNight]

An off road X or H pipe will get you the sound you want

 

[Q's Stang]

i think im just going to say f it and go w/ the o/r magnaflow x...is it only like 2-3 hundred bucks? and how bad is labor for it?

 

[Q's Stang]

and thinking about it...i basically want to get my mustang to sound classic with a real aggressive sound like an older muscle car...something that can give me cold chills!
