2000 exhaust system
Im looking for a cat-back system for a 2000 GT, anyone purchase one yet. Where did you get it and how much? Does it sound better? I'm leaning towards a flowmaster. Thanks for any help.

Are you looking for an actual performance increase or just a change in exhaust sound?
If you are looking for a performance increase via the exhaust system, an X/H pipe with cats is a better investment. The stock cat-back system on 99-00 GTs are not very restrictive, and you'll see minimal gains (if any), by going to an aftermarket cat-back system alone.... ------------------ "The Yellowjacket" 1998 Mustang GT 13.97@103 "Traction Impaired" or "Nitto Needy" "They think they can make fuel from horse manure....

The Flowmaster system is the most popular and provides a nice loud sound. But if you want a high quality piece go with either Borla or Bassani, they both sound awesome and have excellent build quality. Other good choices include MAC and Magnaflow. I'm personally going to go with the Bassani (I think), although they are the most expensive. Best bang for the buck are Flows, MAC, or Magnaflow...

treedstang, how much was your Magnaflow? I'm trying to get one ordered, but I don't have any prices. They look very high quality. They also have the magnapack which is louder than the magnaflow. I'm going to go for the magnapack...
