Car Forum / Ford / Ford Mustang / April 2005Need to make 1996 Mustang GT Louder!!! an Faster!!! HELP
hi everyone i am a owner of a 96 mustang gt....i have just put flowmaster exhaust cans on the car with the stock tailpips. It only really sounds good at about 2000 rpm an then i cant even hear it... kinda disapointing if u ask me, well i need help on how 2 wake up my 4.6 so u can hear it 5 miles away any suggestions? Yea.. sell it. You are too stupid to know that you will annoy the hell out of everyone within that five mile radius and leave yourself as a target for every patrolman that wants to write a dumbass like yourself a ticket. Sound harsh? Try living next door to the moron that has the pipes that can be heard "for a five mile radius" A car can sound great without being loud enough to be obnoxious. You wanna hear a sweet sounding car? BlueStang98 has one that will make your dick drop in the dirt. Nothing special really to look at - like a normal car - but when he turns the key, it turns heads. Runs like a rabbid assed ape too. it's tasteful, and audible. Go buy a Honda, drop it in the dirt, add a chicken wing to the deck lid that has at least a three foot lift and put a fart can muffler on it with lots of "make it go fast yellow" stickers and plug in some rap music and you will be in great shape.

Keep the cats & ditch the mufflers instead. The drone will, however, drive you nuts in quick time. My '73 Mustang (factory 302/4bbl.) has no mufflers, no cats, no H-pipe, just straight pipes out the back. The neighbors hate me between 9:00pm & 9:00am, and pretty much all day too... even a hate call now & then when we fire it up... but it sure sounds great with a 5000 rpm WOT run-by! Rob so run straight pipes from the heads back? but wont i lose power because there will be no back pressure? >so run straight pipes from the heads back? but wont i lose power >because there will be no back pressure? You're a f.cking idiot. Please, just hand over the car to me. Or here's an idea....put on a Y-Pipe, and I'll give you the exhaust can from my bike. I took the aftermarket exhaust off that the previous a.shole had on it, because it was just obnoxious. And replaced it with nice, quiet, stock exhaust. I can actually hear traffic around me now, its great. But it really sounds like you and my old exhaust can would get along great! Both of them are obnoxious. -- Stephan 2001 Yamaha YZF-R6 WTF crawled up your a.s and died? He's a f.cking idiot because he has a preference that differs from yours? Quit being an a.shole. -Mike -- Melt away the Cellulite with Cellulean! http://www.MeltAwayCellulite.com/ > >so run straight pipes from the heads back? but wont i lose power > >because there will be no back pressure?

I can tell you what crawled up my a.s and died. Another asshat that decided I need to hear his exhaust 5 miles away in the morning when I'm trying to sleep. Some asshat that every time he starts his car, I hear it, if I want to or not. Anyone who wants their exhaust be heard for a 5 mile radius... Anyone who considers just straight pipes out the back on a STREET car... is as far as I'm concerned, a total f.cking moron. But that's just me... You are entitled to your own opinion, and yours may vary. -- Stephan 2001 Yamaha YZF-R6 Ok, but you can stop being a fuckin j.rkoff about it & go about it a different way other than calling somebody (blatantly) "You're a f.cking idiot." Hell, you know what I have to say to that? You're a f.cking a.shole. I agree, too loud is just annoying.. but I've heard some exhausts that were loud that I *liked* hearing. You will never please everybody.. and some ppl are so fuckin sensitive that you will always piss them off... so I guess you gotta do what makes YOU happy.. and in this case, rburdick@mcihispeed.net (R) wants a bit louder of an exhaust. All he has are a couple Flowmaster mufflers. That is FAR from too loud. Even with an offroad H-pipe.. it's FAR from too loud (because I can't hear my neighbors car until he gets RIGHT in his parking spot and it's a 93 SVT Cobra... and my other neighbor happens to drive a 98 Mustang GT w/ 2 Flowmaster mufflers and an O/R H-pipe and again.. I can't hear it until he gets right next to my place). What I think is, you just felt like bitching because Kate did. I think Kate was a little too harsh, but she put some fuckin humor in it. You flat out ran your mouth & called the guy a "fuckin idiot". Ppl like that piss me off.

Ppl like that piss me off. | Welcome to my kill file. | | -Mike Yup, I was harsh and I'm not taking it back. However I can honestly say that I do NOT believe that Stephen went off just because I did. He is perfectly capable of blowing his own fuse over what was initially an asinine post from what appeared to be a moron. Stephen has proven that before in threads that I had no part in. Sometimes I am harsh -BUT- what I did get with my response was a guy (our fearless poster "R") that came back with a more reasonable explanation of what he was wanting to do. If he had been a common troll... the results would have been predictable. Personally, I like a car to have some exhaust. Now that I live out in the boonies folks with excessive pipes are not a problem but when I lived in the city it was a pain in the a.s. So, "R" do some research. You can go to different web sites and find sound clips for different exhaust combinations that may help you make a decision. LISTEN to different cars to see what you like and then as the people what they have on their car. Keep in mind a few simple truths. Excessively loud cars draw unwanted attention. Be it law enforcement, vandals or the guy that is road raging or the neighbor that alienate. If you destroy your emissions system for the sake of more sound, you WILL pay the price eventually. If you go crazy, your hearing WILL suffer. You may not notice it now, but wait till you are in your mid 40s and you have trouble hearing. And it WILL get worse. So, think about it. DO the research and make a wise decision. Mike and Stephen... c'mon guys... calm down.

No problem at all =) -- Stephan 2001 Yamaha YZF-R6 >Welcome to my kill file. And I care, why? Suit yourself. -- Stephan 2001 Yamaha YZF-R6 I'm with Kate on this. And while we are talking about people being insensitive (or just plain stupid), let's also talk about fog lights. Just because you *have* foglights, doesn't mean you need to use them when the weather is clear and your normal driving lights will do fine. You can do other things to "look cool" that do not annoy and distract those around you. And finally, back to sound, WTF is it with bass thumping so hard I can hear it a block away in MY car with my windows up and my own stereo on? Admit it that when you turn your stereo up that loud, it doesn't sound good to you until you have lost half your hearing. The only people you will impress with loudness (audible & visual) are other dorks like yourself who have no taste, sensitivity, or intelligence. "Look at me, I'm a big dork who needs attention," is what most people think of your cheesy/annoying display. How many people smart enough to afford $40,000+ cars do you see driving around with foglights on in clear weather, loud mufflers, and thumping bass? And how many do you see doing all of the above in cheaper cars? Getting a clue yet?

Whichever. More tasteful with tail pipes, louder w/out (but still sounds good). But don't get so loud that you piss ppl off... or you might find slashed tires or scraped off paint (yes, ppl can be dicks). -Mike -- Melt away the Cellulite with Cellulean! http://www.MeltAwayCellulite.com/ > hi everyone i am a owner of a 96 mustang gt....i have just put > flowmaster exhaust cans on the car with the stock tailpips.

I just took off the cats of the stock H-pipe put MIL eliminators and saved some $$. with 40 series mufflers it sounds really loud enough. How did you take off the cats? Just weld/clamp in other pipe where the cats were? -Mike -- Melt away the Cellulite with Cellulean! http://www.MeltAwayCellulite.com/ > I just took off the cats of the stock H-pipe put MIL eliminators and saved > some $$. with 40 series mufflers it sounds really loud enough. Yup, just as you said, but the front two were hard to take off, so I just "emptyed" them so they are still there with nothing inside. it sounds the same as I spent $$$ on aftermarket stuff. Why didn't ya pull the entire H-pipe & use a recip. saw to cut 'em out? Or even an angle grinder w/ a cutting wheel... then grind it down. I'd use a recip. saw & a few blades. I'm shopping around for an H-pipe with 2 high-flow cats. I have a Steeda adjustable clutch cable on the way.. should arrive tomorrow or day after. Mine snapped :(. -Mike -- Melt away the Cellulite with Cellulean! http://www.MeltAwayCellulite.com/ > Yup, just as you said, but the front two were hard to take off, so I just > "emptyed" them so they are still there with nothing inside. it sounds the > same as I spent $$$ on aftermarket stuff. > hi everyone i am a owner of a 96 mustang gt....i have just put > flowmaster exhaust cans on the car with the stock tailpips.

Get out your CHECK BOOK!!! More noise equals more tickets! Period! That doesn't even touch on the irreversible "permanent" low tone hearing loss... >hi everyone i am a owner of a 96 mustang gt....i have just put >flowmaster exhaust cans on the car with the stock tailpips. It only >really sounds good at about 2000 rpm an then i cant even hear it... >kinda disapointing if u ask me, well i need help on how 2 wake up my >4.6 so u can hear it 5 miles away any suggestions? Here's what contibutes to my car's exhaust note that Kate's so fond of: 98 GT w/ 2000 heads FRPP coated shorty headers Bassani Stainless Steel Offroad X Bassani Stainless Steel Cat-Back w/baffles Generally speaking, most people prefer the sound of straight-through type mufflers with X-pipes (particularly Offroad X-pipes) while chambered mufflers tend to be more pleasing with H-pipes. Often when you mix these this formula incorrectly the result is a wicked drone around 2000 rpm's that'll rattle your teeth outta your head. Unfortunately the exact model of Bassani X that I have isn't available as a 1-piece part anymore, they did a slight re-design to make shipping more affordable. Still great stuff though and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. If I had to do it all over again I'd take a hard look at the Magnaflow stuff... same stainless steel construction at a little more reasonable price. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Okie Tom - TS #62 1998 GT Coupe 5-spd. 2001 Ranger XLT > hi everyone i am a owner of a 96 mustang gt....i have just put > flowmaster exhaust cans on the car with the stock tailpips.

Tube headers will add a lot of noise. Also get the largest diameter pipes and cats you can find. Flowmaster 40's are widely acknowledged as about the loudest thing out there, but they also make a race car muffler that is even louder. H-pipes and X-pipes decrease the noise, so stay away from those. An unsilenced air cleaner can add induction howl. Removing sound insulation will make your car a lot louder from the driver's seat. So will solid motor mounts. 180 Out (No, I don't own a hearing aid company, but I wish I did.) >> Hi everyone i am a owner of a 96 mustang gt.... >> i have just put flowmaster exhaust cans on the [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] >180 Out >(No, I don't own a hearing aid company, but I wish I did.)
