I think you’ll like the pype bomb cat back. It’s a nice change from flowmasters or whatever everyone else uses.
It was that or Borla and I personally don’t care for how the Borla tips look with the being rolled and for how much they cost they don’t sound THAT great

I’d have to agree on both points. I like their sound but damn are they expensive. M80s have a unique sound that I find cool since no one has them. I ran them on my 07 gt for a while too until I swapped to cherry bombs. Both sounded good but were loud as hell. On my 02, they’re pretty tame at idle.

LMR came through with next day delivery! God I love living in Texas one of the parts I got was a new OEM cowl and wiper arms. Looks so much better. Can’t wait to install the OEM intake manifold later this evening and start assembling the exhaust. Midpipe will be here Tuesday

Got the new Ford intake manifold in last night as well as a new battery that’s actually for the car instead of a truck battery , got the new cowl on and new wipers arms as well. She’s back up and running and have the catback on the car but not bolted down since I’m still waiting on the midpipe to come in but come Tuesday she will be running 100% for the first time in over a year.42CB2939-AC3C-49B5-9EBB-DBC9F92490A9.jpeg21544972-8B70-4ADF-9406-6FE1740D7290.jpeg

Thanks man! It honestly reminds me of my 2019 GT I had with that deep throaty note
I like it because it’s unique. No one runs Pypes for some reason. I’m not going to lie, I like the typical mustang dronemasters sound but then again I like yours because it’s unique. I have a video of my old 02 somewhere but it’s only from inside the car.

I always try to do something different from everyone else, most of them all sound and look the same but I agree this sound is very unique and I love it for that reason alone

my 1st gt was back when drone master was king, so i used 40's with a mac prochamber. was loud but good. Everyone loved it. couldn't do it now it would drive me crazy. I'm a big Bassani or borla stinger fan now. borla stingers with a catted x on my mach was just so good. I would drive the thing just to hear it in the 3k-6k rpm range.
