2001 mustang exhaust
 

Hey i just picked up a 2001 GT and i want some kind of side exhaust like the cobra R.. but im not too sure about borla.. Ive never heard a car w/ a borla exhaust... if anyone could help me out making a choice on what kind of exhaust to go with id appreciate it.

Welcome to the board!!! http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/biggrin.gif

From what I've heard, Borla is the way to go if you have the $$ to spend. You might have to get new side skirts with an opening for the exhaust. As far as companies that make a side exhaust for 99+ GT's, I think Borla, Magnaflow, and Classic Concept Designs all make a kit.

As far as sound, I'd go with Borla. A little more expensive but well worth the money. Hope I helped a little bit (I tried)

My side exhaust is Borla. I have a crappy sound file in my signature. Click on the link to my 96GT and give it a listen. It's fairly representative of the sound with a stock hpipe.

ok now would anyone pick borla over flowmaster? I like my cars LOUD with a good deep rumble...

I would pick Borla over Flowmaster. I had flows on my 91 and they were alright but it sounded like every other stang out there. On the 01, I'm going with Borla. I just want a different sound.

Wouldn't recommend it over the Flow sound but it is different. http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/smile.gif

Wouldn't be a bad choice.

If I am not mistaken, Borla made the side exhaust for the "R". I believe they sell the same kit, and I think that kit is on EBAY for $299 (buy now option.) Add to that a bassini X-pipe, again, same as on the R, and you will be sounding pretty close. Except, you have about 50 less cubic inches.

the roush & saleen side pipes are nice if you have the money i have a 2000 gt im going with flows because i want to keep my stainless exh & look stock the 4.6 sounds dfferent than the 5.0 plus its amoney thing & i want to fool camaro s so do whatevere you want its your pony you picked a great car good luck
