Trust me dave they sound great,
the guy at the exhaust shop who has a 1988 mustang 302 with open headers said that he didnt hear a difference at idle but when you give it a little juice it sounds damn good:D

I can't believe I'm sayin' this - That sounds strong! There I said it. I'll be the first one to complain when I ride in it though. When do I get to test drive that thing?

Hey, hey, hey! I love quiet speed. I guess I should own an AMG 'Benz or sumptin'. Really, it sounds awesome and I can't wait to hear it in person. Am I ever changing my exhaust? If the cats ever crack-up, I'd consider it.

Question two:

Why don't you ever post that you have a 70mm throttle body or a phenolic spacer?

Damn that is quiet. I was expecting some tone for a muffler swap post. Those must be the flowtech Afterburners.

Yea, but the Marauders also have the tips. Alex is just running 2" tailpipe. I imagine if he put 3" tips he would get some noise. But even so, compared to how it sounded before the new muffs, the car is loud now.

no the marauder has 2-1/4in tubing maniflods back and after the mufflers it is 2.5in to the tips that are 3in.

No, the Marauder has 2" mid pipe. It is 2.25 after the mufflers to the tips. I OWN ONE. Trust me.

I dont own one but my dad does and weve had it longer and we have done plenty of exhaust work to it but anyways why is it advertized 2.5 in the broshure

I'd take a pic of me measuring my stock pipes w/ a digital caliper but that would be a waste of time. It is well known that the MM stock pipes are 2/2.25".

+1

When I had my rear exhaust section (muffler back) put back on the exhaust shop used 2.25" CVPI rear exhaust tail pipe extension pieces. They doubled check because they didn't want to put on something smaller than factory back on.

Hence the reason why most people step up to a 2.5" pipe when they get a custom exhaust done.
