New Exhaust Setup

Well, I haven't posted on my blog for quite sometime; so I thought I might add some new stuff. As you may or may not have known, I was running an exhaust setup that consisted of FRPP shorty headers, Pypes off road h-pipe, Vibrant resonnators, and FRPP Stingers. I've been running this setup for a while now and it came to a point that I needed a change. I was browsing on YouTube and came across a guy who was running a high flow catted x pipe and FRPP Stingers and it sounded great. Nice low rumble and no trumpeting when he got on it. So one day, I dug out my off road x pipe out of my storage and cleaned all the dust and spider webs off it. I then went down to my local auto parts store and ordered a pair of Magnaflow High Flow Cats. These took about a week to ship when they finally arrived. I then took these along with my x pipe to my local muffler shop where I have had previous work done on all my Mustangs that I have owned. I told them what I needed done and left my car with them for the afternoon. When the work was done, I picked it up, paid for the labor and time it took to complete, fired up the Stang, and my eyes opened wide and my mouth opened with awe. The sound was deep and throaty and no trumpeting. This was the sound I was looking for that took me 2 years and $1500 in different exhaust setups to find. Here is a sound/video clip of how it sounds.
