I am looking at getting a cat-back system for my '97 GT. the original mufflers are on their way out.
However, I don't want the car to be loud. A tiny bit louder is probably ok, but I don't want it to be loud on the expressway or wake the dead every time I get on the accelerator.
The two finalists are the all stainless mac 2.5in system with 3.5" tips

and the equivalent magnaflow set up:

The cats/H pipe are stock.
What I dislike about the mac is the lack of a lifetime warranty. I like the use of flanges to bolt the sections together. The magnaflow the lifetime warranty, they make more full stainless set ups, but I dislike the use of cheap U-clamps at the rear of the mufflers.
My question is, how do these both compare to stock with regard to loudness and sound? Also, does anyone have pictures of '94-'98 mustangs with these systems installed. I cannot find any good pictures. Also wondering what mac means by 'rolled' tips.
thanks in advance..
