Hello everybody I am new to this forum and i just recently purchased a 2003 GT. I want to put exhaust on it and I want it to be loud but also have some performance increase. What are some options? Thanks

headers are pricy though..i'm pretty sure u gotta yank out the engine a bit to put them on...never heard of anyone putting headers on a 4.6 w/out yanking the engine. good luck if you do though

Ive never used the x pipe but it seems to be a pretty popular thing now. Im going to have to try it out. Spike says its pretty good and from what I read on here he's a pretty smart cookie

I hear that bassani makes some baddass exhaust, but does anyone know how their mufflers compare to that of flowmaster and magnaflow? ( sound and performance)
Bassani does make a bad ass exhasut system... only thing is which is a good thing is it is all stainless steel... bad thing is it is very expensive compared to everything else... plus i heard they sound awsome....i'm thinkin about anew exhaust also... only thing is i can't decide.... for sure i would get the bassani x pipe but i can't decide between the flowmaster cat back or a spntech side exit....

Im going to get the Bassani X Pipe with high flow Cats, and decided to stick to my Borla CatBack system. Since its all Stainless Steel. This way, I will have a complete stainless steel exhaust system.
I was going to switch it out with the Flowmaster catback system, but found out a little more about the one I had, which is the Borla one. I check the price on the Borla Catback and it was expensive ($550), so its hard to ditch it.
One question. How much differnet does Flows and Borla mufflers sound? And is the performance any different? Ok, that was two questions. LoL!!!
all after market catbacks r good for hp .... no real big difference.... just sound....borla will last longer but i believe that the flows have a better sound.... my 2 cents

Borla has that really cool Ferrari type sound if thats what youre into. But flowmasters make everything sound like an animal!!!!! And thats always good
