Looking for Deep Sound

[Ralo]

Listen to how this sounds after it goes by and grabs the next gear. Its deep, loud, but......mellow, NOT raspy. This is my MRT catted H with Super 44's and stock manifolds.

That is a real good tone. I have a o/r x and lm1's and it is nasty. Sometimes I wish it was a deeper more mellow tone. It's just right around 2500 where it gets raspy but at WOT it is just amazing.

 

[Double-D]

MRT Catted-H and Magnaflow cat back is deep enough for me.

MAC Prochamber.

+1. Prochamber mixed with Stingers is a great deep smooth sound.

Well I've done some searches and read a bunch. I'm thinking of running Magnaflows and a catted midpipe.. I'm leaning towards a Bassani Catted X.. I'm still thinking about the flowmasters, but is a 3" tip big enough or do you need to buy a bigger set?

 

[96stanggt]

Go with a different X-pipe than the Bassani, its a chambered X and won't be as smooth sounding as a true X. 90% of the people that are Bassani X fanboys have only heard Youtube videos and haven't actually driven a car with it much less even heard one in person.

The reason I like it is because a friend had one on his GT. It was a solid sounding car... I know he had a cat back on it ias well but I don't know which brand. I really haven't found much on here about them so maybe I should read into that. Maybe I'll run the Magnaflow or SLP X??? I am going to run cats... I want it to be loudered than stock and sound good but I don't want it to be too LOUD!

A full 3" exhaust will lower the resonance frequency (slower exhaust velocity) and should provide a deeper tone your looking for. Won't help exhaust scavenging and the car may have a bit of a drone.

Very true. The Bassani design allows exhaust to be collected inside its X, whereas the Maggie design is much tighter and better flowing. The Maggie X is radius down the closer the pipes get to the X.

Maggie X with the Maggie catback will probably give you the DEEPEST sound for STRAIGHT-THRU mufflers, but not necessarily the LOUDEST. An MRT H/Prochamber with Flowies or Mac catback will probably give you the DEEPEST sound for CHAMBERED mufflers, but not necessarliy the LOUDEST.

Are we looking for DEEP or LOUD??? There is a big difference. Some guys want a deep tone. Some guys just want to be loud. Trying to find your exhaust nirvana can, and will, get expensive very fast.

P.S...I know you heard a Bassani on your bud's GT, but exhaust on a 2-valve engine does sound different than the 4-valves. And if its an older pushrod 2V, it will sound VASTLY different.

I didn't even think about the 2V to 4V difference. I want to make the best choice the first time. This could be a costly mistake!! I do NOT want the loudest exhaust!! I want deep, mellow, but aftermarket sound for sure. What I really want is that cool, ya that's a badass sounding mustang sound you hear when a nice one starts up acrossed the parking lot..

Borla Stingers & Basanni catted X-pipe FTW

 

[deckhouse]

i just bought a bassani cat-back and an MRT catted h-pipe. Its going on saturday and i cant wait to hear how that is gonna sound!!!!

 

[tyronejenkinsII]

I made a quick vid of my car, look at the "01' cobra exhaust" thread I posted.

 

[BlackBeauty44]

i'm ordering my MRT catted H-pipe!!!!!

 

[blackmagicmach]

spin techs will give both a deep and loud sound and still wont drone.....

You are gonna freak when you hear how that MRT catted H wakes up the Flowies. Its night and day difference.

 

[dlaude]

I vote h pipe also. and with a chambered muffler. 3" catbacks will be louder, but deeper and cats will clean up the sound alot, and deepen the tone.

I will be switching to a h pipe soon to compliment my kooks lt's and steeda (borla) catback. right now, I have the kooks o/r x and it sounds pretty good, but not quite deep enough for me.

Yeah, I agree. I would be looking for something a bit deeper also.

Does anyone have a sound clip on hand that's got maggie x with maggie catback (I assume that is magnaflow?).

How about MRT/prochamber with flows or macs c/b?

I'm all about deep. IMO it's all about how big your balls are, not how far you can piss (there's a stretch of an analogy).

[slammedstang]

[BlackBeauty44]

For anyone looking looking to save a little money this is the cheapest price i have found so far for the MRT H-pipe

spintechs are also like putting a cork on your exhaust if you are running forced induction. That's why I took mine off.
