|  exhaust questions...HELP ASAP!!!!!! I'm looking at this Flowmaster exhaust for $280 + shipping......  and also this mac one......  for $300 + shipping....Which one would be a better exhaust system for my 2002 GT 5 speed? By better I mean more power, and i guess the loudest. Would both or any void warantee? All I have right now is K & N drop in filter. Also, does anybody communicate threw AOL Instant Messanger? It's a hell of a lot faster then talking through message boards...Thanks again...

| I have flows on my mustang, and it really sounds good around 2000 rpm's. I can also feel a smoother throttle response and a slight more grab at high rpm's. However, I would like my muffler's louder. I read an article at www.mustangworld.com where a guy did some slight modifications to make his louder. As for the warranty, i dunno...i've far surpassed mine. I also don't know much about mac exhaust systems. |

| as far as your flowmaster goes, what did you do, just the mufflers? Or did you also put on bigger pipes from cat back? How many chamber mufflers did you do?

| 2 chambers, stock front, 3" rear. I was listening to it today as i was driving and it really does sound nice and deep. No rice burning weed-eater noices...I have a five speed, and when I down shifted, there was a nice low rumble (not like straight pipes w/ no mufflers/cats, but a deep sounder gurgle). I would recommend flows, i love mine. If i could, I would get the cat system (mine has six cats), but I'm short on funds now... |

| Titan, I agree with the flowmaster sound, it's great. So you think I should get Flowmaster American Thunder which is a cat back system with 2 chamber mufflers for $350 from summit or what? Anybody know where I can get it cheaper?!

| One nice thing about the MAC kit is that it is completely bolt-on - it has ball and socket joints to go over the axle without welding. The sound of the two is pretty similar.
