Yet another exhaust opinion needed....

[1988WHTGT]

Ok, I know theres like a million posts a day about exhaust, but I couldn't find anything about what I have a question about. I wanna redo my exhaust. I'm gonna keep my shorty headers (unless someone has a cheap set of LT's). So I wanna get a new O/R H-pipe (or x, will take input on that also) and a new set of 2-chambers. Now the different thing i was thinking about is putting a cut-out on each side between the h/x pipe and mufflers. That way I can have mild and wild. What do you guys think? My mods are in my sig.

Anybody?

A cut-out?
Ahh, no.
Stick with the performance cats and a good 2 chamber catback.

It hasn't had cats for the last 3 years....don't have to pass any emissions down here

Go with an X-pipe. The flowmasters sound nuts with an O/R X-pipe. As for the cutout, to each his own. I personally wouldn't but thats just me.

Although on second thought the sound from an x-pipe with no mufflers might sound pretty good.

Yea, I want the good ol' mustang sound from the 2 chambers, but I also want the balls-to-the-wall drag sound too....which could be achieved by uncapping the cutouts....

Get an X-pipe or Mac Pro-chamber and weld in some Magnapacks.......will sound sick as hell!

Cut outs with a bolt on plate are pretty old school. I mean that in a good way. If you are EFI, I bet that it will slow you down and lean you out. I used to be the biggest Flowmaster fan in the world but the mufflers they make now are total junk. If it's humid out your way get something else. Flowmasters will turn to Rustmasters in no time. The Mac's are ok. I recommend anything stainless. Nothing fits like a Bassani cat back. You get what you pay for.

Flowmasters are the best period sounding muffler, don't do the cutouts.

 

[JimBowy]

i dont understand why you guys are so focused on being anti-cutouts....

Mac prochamber, it flows like an x, but has the deep bassy tone of an H. Don't know much about cutouts. Sorry.

I have folwtech LT's with an o/r H pipe and 2 chamber flows with no pipes. The thing really screams at WOT
