Lots of ways to go of course. Try checking out the web sites that sell tested parts at a discount ( Brothers performance, Steeda, ). I got my BBK X- pipe for 170 bucks and that included shipping, got my flows for 125 bucks from a mustang rebuilder. Parts can be had for a lesser price!
Prsonnaly my car is VERY loud during certain times,1st gear 1000 - 2000 rpm range espesially. With the top down it can be almost annoying. Very rasspy sound at times. after second gear you barely hear it untill you get on it. The best thing is everyone loves it, even my wife who I thought would have a fit when I brought it home for the first time with the X pipe on it. As far as HP gains, well that is another deal in itself, you will see some gains but not tremendous, but it sure sounds like you have a hell of a lot more under the hood! I'm in the process of gutting my stock H pipe and making the cross section bigger to see what it sounds like, just for fun.
