you have anything else done besides the exhaust?

[karlriggs]

@stewey08m Yes I have, I've also bolted on a Borla exhaust system and it has a really cool unique sound. I have a video of it, but I haven't posted it yet, I'll get on it soon... The MRT is loud, very in your face mustang sound. My family can hear my coming home about 45 seconds before I pull in the driveway, through my house... That kinda loud. But it's not completely annoying to the driver. Under 55mph, and it's not noticeable, over 55, it can be. Borla is more of a soft growl,

[karlriggs]

It's not nearly as loud but it has deep V8 grumble. Each are great systems, I would recommend them both, but it's up to you which one will work best for you. Even though I've only tried these 2 on my car, I've heard many other set-ups in person also. JBA, Magnaflow, SLP all make exhausts for this car. Good luck!

Sounds good man, you should dual it out and throw a good set of headers on that thing though and that bitch will scream :D

[karlriggs]

@TheBlaze87 Well, duals look great, but for the 05 V6, they actually make you lose HP, because it reduces the back pressure the engine needs. It's miniscule, like 2-3 HP loss, but when compared to this exhaust with a 10HP gain, I'll take a single exit :D But I'll look into some headers.... Thanks for the tip.

doesnt sound it, but is it raspy at all?

[karlriggs]

Not really, it may sound raspy if you REALLY rev it during a cold start, but most exhausts will act like that anyway. Normal driving the exhaust sounds great.

Has your 0-60 time changed much with that? If you really want a noise from that car, Vortech makes some really good SuperChargers for it. Nothing quite like a SuperCharger howl as it screams down a road with a beefed up 290 hp and 294 ft lbs of torque (some Vortech systems take it up to 330 hp).

How much was the foglights/grille?

[stewey08m]

@stewey08m I would definitely like to listen to the Borla exhaust when you put that video up. One last thing the MRT sounds as the video in person? I would hate for my mustang to start sounding like some sort of Lawnmower. Haha

[stewey08m]

@karlriggs Yea i was trying to decide between the Borla and the MRT. The good thing about the MRT is that it is nearly half of the price. I am also going for something that is loud, so i guess based on your description the MRT would be the better choice since you said the Borla is a little softer.

No problem, don't blame ya at all there, if that's the case I'd go single on a v6 too, anything positive in hp is good. Headers will get you at least another 10-15 at the rear wheels and it'll have a nice deep throatier tone, not that it doesn't sound good now but headers will def help your cause. You dyno that thing or run it at a track at all?
