Welcome aboard! The general consensus is that there is no "right" answer to the muffler question. Just don't think you're going to put some Super 40's or 44's on and it's gonna sound like a Mustang - cuz it won't. Ever. I've heard cars with Dynomax's on them - and they sound just as good or better than others that spent the $$ on Borla's.

As for the resonator....either keep it on OR put on a glass pack of some kind. Without something - it will sound like fresh @ss. There IS a general consensus on that point.

+1 keep the res or at the minimum replace it with a glass pack.

Default Re: Exhaust Question

Go to youtube and check out the Pypes Quad Muffler setup I think it sounds sweet. It's on a Mustang though. I'm putting that on my Crown Vic and the Pypes RacePro mufflers on my wifes GTP. Do a search for mufflers.....there are a lot of companies out there besides Flowmaster, Borla and Dynomax. Those are good companies but I was looking for something different and ran across Pypes.
Anyway, good luck and post up about what you go with. If it's different include audio too if you can.
