OK all ready to start askin questions muhaha...Whats the best between these two power and sound wise dual flows or bassani? i like the basani but never tried the flows?



Posted by: Rick Sample

I honestly don't think that you'll notice any more gain in power from one brand to another. They both basically function the same. As for sound, I have never heard a bassani exhaust on any Mustang. My flowmasters sound great and I wouldn't change them for anyone!

Here, try this site out http://www.mustangexhaust.com/ You do have to sign up, its free, and there are video and wav files of different exhaust clips.
I know there is another, I will see what I can find for ya.

rick is right you wont get much power diffrence on exhaust. it isnt that much of a gain in the fist place. get exhaust for sound not power!



Posted by: ExBamaGal

Yup, it all depends on what kind of sound you want and how much you want to spend. I also have the flows and love them. I'll try to get a sound clip when this wind stops blowing so bad.



Posted by: Jimbo_Jack

awsome now lets talk about prices lol how much are the flows compared to the bassani?



Posted by: ExBamaGal

I got everything installed for $375. I don't know how much bassani would be. Best thing to do is to check with your local muffler shop and get a quote from them.



Posted by: Rick Sample

I've always heard that bassani is always more. At least for the entire cat-back system. My cousins just put a bassani exhaust on their LT1 Camaro, it was almost $700, but thats a totally different make/model. I could be wrong, I dunno! I paid around what Tiffany paid for hers although I forget the exact price.

I have the full flowmaster catback. I personally like the sound! It doesn't produce the kind of sound that the V8's with the catback can produce. If you put the V6 with flows up to a stock GT or Cobra, I don't care if it is a 95 or a 05, the V6 with the flowmaster will have a louder sound! The only time that the V8's will sound louder is if they to have an aftermarket exhaust!

my borla's were 550 installed, borla is suppose to be one of th most expensive...but it wasnt a kit system, it was fabbed at the muffler shop...



Posted by: Jimbo_Jack

ok well looks like im talkin to the muffler shop! lol. but who knows i might buy me a amp for my sterio



Posted by: Rick Sample

Although a system would be louder than an exhaust would ever be, I just don't get the guys who roll around town with their sterio up all the way!

Exhaust > AMP



Posted by: Jimbo_Jack

lol well music is basically my life but the amp is only 150 and the exhaust is alot more! so you know ill prolly go with the exhaust lol



Posted by: Mustang5L5

But the stereo can be transfered to the Cobra while you won't get a cent back on the exhaust when you sell your V6



Posted by: Jimbo_Jack

who knows i might just have to keep the v6 and get the cobra because my mom might be buying an 05-06 mustang and if she does then i dont think shell give me a cobra shell just give me the 05-06 who know? ill see when i get paid and what the exhaust shop says

True, didn't think of this



Posted by: Jimbo_Jack

yeah but who knows i'm thinkin rims. But i can never tell what im gonna do none of the muffler shops where open



Posted by: Mustang5L5

So do rims, if you do 17" or 18" you can take them off and put them on the cobra later



Posted by: Rick Sample

Yes decisions decisions! From personal experience I know that it's freakin tough deciding what would look best on your car! I've had some pretty major headaches from my car in the past!



Posted by: Jimbo_Jack

lol this is harsh i dont like all the hard decisions
