Back in high school I had an 01 mustang v6. Had dual mach mufflers that cutoff at the rear axle, no tips coming out to the bumper or anything. Sounded great. Deep, loud (enough), and unlike any other v6 mustang I heard. ---

If you did a search for a thread on this and didn’t find one… there is probably a reason why there is no thread on this in the first place (just saying). ---

buy magnaflow mufflers. replace your stock ones with them. enjoy louder but not too loud sound. Or don’t be a cheap fuck and just buy a cat back. edit: seriously though magnaflow have a good sound and can be had cheap on ebay. you could probably get a pair(assuming there is 2) on your car for around 100 bucks. A cat back is probably going to run 350+ so that is your better value as long as your exhaust is in good enough condition to weld/clamp onto. ---

By any chance is this because your mufflers are rotted out? I ask because when I had my GTP, one of the mufflers blew out while the rest of the car was relatively clean. ---

Resonators and mufflers with a good sound are your best bet. ---

Thanks for the info guys, I’ll let everyone know what I do.

Not sure what you mean… you’re saying it’s impossible to make a V6 sound good? If so, you might be right. ---------- Post added at 09:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:12 AM ---------- > [@somedude](#): > > buy magnaflow mufflers. replace your stock ones with them. enjoy louder but not too loud sound.

A cat back is probably going to run 350+ so that is your better value as long as your exhaust is in good enough condition to weld/clamp onto. I looked up catbacks awhile back and IIRC the cheapest was 5 or 6 hundred. I’ll look into some magnaflows, thanks. ---------- Post added at 09:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:14 AM ---------- > [@Baker](#): > > By any chance is this because your mufflers are rotted out? I ask because when I had my GTP, one of the mufflers blew out while the rest of the car was relatively clean. No, I just want a better sound and maybe a couple more ponies. The car was pretty clean when I bought it last year and I winterized it before this past winter. ---------- Post added at 09:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:15 AM ---------- > [@smokeyV](#): > > Back in high school I had an 01 mustang v6.

I’ll have to see if I can find any vids with a similar setup. ---

The GM 3800, though a fantastic engine, sounds like crap any way you slice it. ---
