Default how loud would it be if....

I had longtube headers, an offroad H pipe, and sraight pipes without mufflers right out the back? Would I be breaking windows and getting pulled over left and right or what?

first of all your computer's speakers aren't gonna reproduce the sound correctly.

Secondly what in the heck would posse you to make your stang that loud. It will be ungodly loud. TOO loud.

You asked how loud you would be. I have a 91 5.0lx full length headers h-pipe then 2 1/2 inch pipes out the rear. You would not be able to run on the streets without getting pulled over. When I take my car out in the country and romp on her a bit my wife can hear me back at our house 3 miles away. Thats not an exageration. I also noticed I lost some of my power off the line when i dropped my mufflers. I have made a .mp3 of the sound in the past but when you rev it all you hear is distortion because its just too loud. Hope this helps ya out.

Yes, you'll 'break windows' and get pulled over constantly, guaranteed. You'll also damage your hearing if you drive the car for long distances. Bad idea.

Most mods have a point of diminishing returns...exhaust loudness is one of these things.

Don't do it.

YEAH DON'T DO IT. Offroad H-pipe, and mufflers will be plenty for your insatiable appetite for sound. I don't have a catback, but I have an offroad H-pipe for sale.
