Just installed Stingers...DAMN!

[ROADSTR6]

They are just way too loud for me even with the stock H. I guess I should have got the Magnaflow cat-back to get something a little quieter. I was hoping for a sound similar to my old 5.0 Fox with a Bassani catted X and a Bassani cat-back. These stingers just absolutely scream and I'm nott looking to get quite so much attention. Anyway, after spending $700+ on this cat-back I am sick to my stomach. Maybe I'll get used to the stingers, I don't know. I've only put about 40 miles on them so far. I have a feeling they'll be up on the market here soon.

Suprising. After hearing everyone talk about them for so long , I purchased the stingers and actually thought they were pretty quiet. I love how they sound but never considered them to be very loud. Hope it all works out for ya

 

[asiancobra]

im guessing for ur terminator right?

 

[BlownReptile]

I thought my stingers were quiet with the stock h pipe.

 

[Jomo1994z71]

Get Flows welded in...love em...

 

[ROADSTR6]

Yeah, I just put them on my '03 Terminator Convertible. I drove it in to work again today and I'm starting to get used to them a little bit. Maybe my apprehension about the stingers is due to the fact that they're so much louder than stock. I love the sound, I'm just not crazy about the constant popping when decelerating and it's just a tad louder than I expected. I did the flowmaster thing for years with my fox body 5.0. I've heard them on 4.6's and just I don't think they have the same appeal. I'm going to run the stingers for a while and see if I warm up to them. The good thing is that they don't drone at all and they're very reasonable on the highway. It's just around town going through the gears at part throttle that I constantly think, "Damn these things are loud."

They will sound better as you get some miles on them.

 

[SLEEPERSTATUS]

Could never be too loud lol

Agreed...it takes a little breaking in period...my Flows pop on Decel too...but that's only when I down shift hard...

 

[Silverboost]

doesn't Bassani make baffles that you can put in that will quiet it down?

My flows don't pop on a decel at all and that is with an off-road h.

 

[P49Y-CY]

you'll get used to em roadstr6, they are not too loud even for a daily driver

 

[HandoZiZle]

Go with the Magnaflows and you should be pretty happy.

Exactly.

Sounds just like the Stingers tone-wise; but slightly deeper and 1/2-3/4 of the total volume of the Stingers (1/2 the volume driving around; 3/4 at WOT).

VERY deep, smooth tone that is progressive with RPM and NO drone.

I would run them over a Magnaflow system with the stock H any day because they have the deeper/smoother note/tone.

Bassani does offer baffled tips which would quieten the system considerably and get rid of a fair amount of the poppiness BUT that would require you cutting the Borla tips off.

The Bassani system would be worth a look as well considering you can take the baffles in/out upon your mood for the day. However the sound of it has nothing to do with the any traditional Mustang sound really and is definitely BEST paired with a catted X.

Should have bought a VW Beetle.

Didn't you listen to all of the clips and realize how much different they were?
