I don't have any clips, but a buddy of mine ran !mufflers on his 04' GT for a little while. All i can say is the the sound will wake up the dead. I didn't like sound that much due to the tone of the exhaust. The loudness was awesome, but the tone sounded like $hit. For a 4.6L, I prefer the sound of a chambered muffler as opposed to a straight-through or no mufflers.

!mufflers on a 4.6L mod motor sounds pretty ****** badass. And it shouldn't be TOO rediculously loud if he still has stock cats. I say just cut em off, and if you don't like it, take it to an exhaust shop and have it welded back into place for $50.

I love LS1s, but one place where mustangs dominate is Exhaust. Any exhaust set up on a mustang sounds sick, I like the tone of no mufflers or open headers on a 4.6 but it's all opinion.

I had single chamber flowmasters on my 4.6l, which is about as close to no mufflers as you can get. I got sick of it because my passengers kept complaining about getting headaches after riding in my car. It was so loud I had visions of my exhaust breaking windows as I drove by. It would set off car alarms blocks away, and every cop within a mile new I was comming their way. Long story short, it was WAY too loud!!! I couldn't even imaging having no mufflers on a 4.6l. Can you say YUCK!
