2010 GT Exhaust Stage 1 Update

[FreeWayUofM]

Ok so far I have went with the Pypes O/R H-Pipe, and am trying to figure out which Axle-back to run. Please help???......... Right now I'm in between either Ford Racing FR500S, or Pypes Bomb System, looking for the deepest sound possible. What do you all think I should run, here's a clip of what she(Pearl) sounds like so far.

I'm really partial to Flowmasters lately. It just has that classic deep throaty sound. Although I run a Bassani aft-cat on my car with an O/R H and it sounds fantastic IMO. It has a deep sound at idle and part throttle but turns to a loud almost scream at WOT.

thanks for reply Fox Rod, I'm a flowmaster man myself but it seems that from Youtube (not a complete reliable source, lol) that all the new models with Flowmaster don't sound to loud at all, but I think i may go for now with the Pypes Bomb system its so cheap that if they dont sound right I can just buy the Ford Racing. LOL

Don't go with a muffler delete like Pype Bombs with an O/R H. It will be loud as hell and you will get alot of trumpeting. If you want a deep sound go with Magnapacks, Borla stingers or MACs.

@ Gmantheman: Yea I've been listening to both the Borla and Magnapacks and they just sound to quite for me especially the Borla, but like i mentioned before this just my temporary 1st run at this exhaust. In 3 yrs, once that powertrain warranty is up, I'm turning her into a Show/Go car, redoing the entire exhaust LT heads and all in Black Ceramic, but for now the LOUD A** Pypes Bomb w/Resonator system & O/R/ H-Pipe will do. LOL Plus it was sooo cheap it was hard to resist. Vids should be up as soon as I get the time to edit them!!!!

[gmantheman]

Did you listen to the borla and magnapacks online or in person? I can almost guarantee that the magnapacks would be just as loud as a resonator and pype bomb set-up. Magnapacks are basically resonated mufflers. My magapacks were just as loud as my resonator and SLP LM set-up. Now what system sounded better? That's a tough decision. It's like saying who's hotter, Miss March or Miss April.
But I bet your set-up sounds awesome as well. What size resonators did you go with?

[FreeWayUofM]

@gmantheman: Hmmm I don't know the size of the resonators they are built into the tips from what I can understand from reading about them. Unfortunately they are on back order so I won't be able to get them hear and installed until most likely the 1st week in June!!! But oh well I'm gonna be waking everybody up come the 2nd week of June so... :-)

Oh and I would most likely pick Miss April considering that's the month I was born. LOL

[gmantheman]

I thought you had separate resonators welded into the midpipe. Okay your set-up will be louder than magnapacks and stingers. IMO it may be a little too loud and you may get trumpeting. The tips on muffler deletes such as pypebombs and SLPs claim to be resonated tips but I am not sure.

[FreeWayUofM]

@gmantheman: IDK about all that, but..... once i actually get them in and installed I will definetely post the video up and let you and everyone else hear them.. :-)

[gmantheman]

I actually saw and heard the pype bombs today. Inside the tips are actually resonated. With the stock catted H they sound pretty damn good.

@gmantheman:
Wow I can't wait till my set gets in so I can hear what it sounds like with my O/R H-Pipe, just hope its not "Backwoods" Loud, but "Showroom" perfection!!!! :-)

Take a video with the car outside. The parking garage amplifies the sound.
