StangKillaLS1

Can anyone answer this question. Why the hell do 4.6L stangs sound good once they have headers and exhaust??? theres a vid on Kazaa of a TwinTurbo SS which turned out to be a Stang that sounded real good, My computers to damn slow and messed up to download some of the clips off of ls1sounds.com so please can someone help me?? Would Tru-duals give me this sound I want???

They are true dual cars, but also the firing order has a big part to play in it

Yup, I think the 5.0s with all the exhaust goodies sound even better yet...even more odd is how similar the 4.6s sound compared to the 5.0s even though the motors are so radically different.

I think stangs sound good with good exhaust, but LS1's sounds more musclely...

Also in the vid you were talking about, the camera car was an 03 Cobra... everyone thinks it was a TT LS1.

It's the firing order more then anything else. Both the 5.0 and 4.6 fire 1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8. That has more to do with it I think than true duals. A Viper has dual exhaust but it still sounds like a UPS truck.

Those stangs do sound badass.
"Yes honey that car sounds really fast but....."
I'm sick of having that discussion.

I got rid of my 02 stang about 9 months ago and it sounded pretty damn good. I had BBK LT's and Dynomax Catback and was paxton blown. I liked the sound but liked the sound of the Magnaflows better then the dynomax. Most Stangers go with the Magnaflows because they sound so good with no drone.

Yep - I used to have a bolt on 99+ GT. It sounded incredible - magnaflow xpipe and magnaflow catback. Wasn't too fast over 60mph though...

I have a '74 Camaro with Summitracing headers and Flows on it. It sounds pretty close to the stangs. 3" colecters to a 2 1/2 pipe into 2 1/4 Flows out to 2 1/4 tails that are turned out right behind the rear wheels.

By the way the muffs are the same ones that are called for on the Stangs. I think the numbers on them are 42332 or something like that. My car is being painted so I can't go and look @ it right now.

32 vavle heads no?

Only on the 4.6L Cobra and Mach 1. The new stangs are 24V 2 intake 1 Exhaust per cylinder.

You need to take a ride in a tsp true dual ls1. It's the nicest sounding car I've ever driven.

well, my 5.0 has 1+7/8 shorty equal-length headers, off road h-pipe, and flowmasters dumped under the car. It sounds BADASS, but my camaro will still eat it alive.

To tell you the truth, I drive the 'stang just for the sound.

Hell I think GMMG on stock manifolds/Y is one of the best sounding things I've ever heard. Not window shattering loud though. Maybe I'm just biased.

A lot of mustangs also run magnaflow magnapacks, something that is not offered with the camaro, although there are a couple of guys running 69' GM style chambered mufflers out the back(I never heard one so i couldn't tell you how it sounds ). Their is also a huge difference in the way the LT1 sounds vs the LS1. I have found that the LT1's sound much more like the stangs that the LS1's
at least with magnaflow mufflers.

2 FASST SS

The thing is they are all true dual (STANGS), All mustangs come with factory headers. Could it be the dual mufflers? Wish Chevy would have gave us a package like that. EVEN THE V6 STANG COME WITH HEADERS!!!

ROJO99

Had an 01 GT and only changed out the mufflers to get a killer sound.

My wife has a 2000 Mustang GT. We put the full Bassani system on - mid-length headers, X-pipe, and catback. It sounds fantastic! But, the drone at 2000 rpm will give me a headache after driving for a while and my Trans Am will still clean it's clock everytime. But, it's not super slow - we went to the track Friday and Sunday - it ran 13.58@102. Not too bad, expecially with crappy Yokohoma ES100's! 2.006 60 foot time!! I think it was the driver (slightly biased!)
