Very nice car you have there!!

Guy I bought my cobra from clams that My borla cost $1000 New
The pipe under the car runs into the muffler and right back out that same side and out to the side of the car for exit. Its Not loud at idol but when you get on it sounds ok. But I am really thinkin of swichin up and going 2 flowmaster.
Somtimes I say that this car isnt loud enuff......

I have the off road H pipe with stock headers.
BBK that is.

I know many people, including myself, that have had custom side exhuast made. Its really loud and has a nice tone. I wanted side exhuast but didn't get the borla's because they werent loud enough for me. I actually might be selling my side exhuast set up here pretty soon if you would be interested.

Mac LTs, O/R X, Borla Stingers + cams = favorite sound ever.

Had Borla Stingers and Bassani O/R X on my '01 Cobra, sounded terrible at anything but WOT, way to loud and raspy, kinda V8 rice. Way too obnoxious for a true a DD.
Took that off and had a custom CB made with Borla Pro XS muffers (and second H-pipe connection under IRS) and loved it.
Borla has a great tone to me with the 4V Modulars, but I have to admit Flowmasters do sound tough. My brother took off 3" Borla XR1s for 3" Flows and it sounds much better with his blown 4V.

Thats awsome!!

But I have the side exhaust which is cool, But I love the sound of the flowmaster 40s 2 chamber Its deff my favv by far for 96 cobra.
Problem is My dad keeps saying (Dont change the side exhaust for rear thats what makes it diffrent) Its the sound that I want though.

I have an o/r H pipe with it thats still not really that loud enuff..
I want loud and good sound.. borla just isnt doin it for me..

They may not flow the best or make the most power on the dyno, but I'll take the sound over 3-4 ponies.

The only thing that will change your sound is the H and X midpipes. I always loved the the traditional H, but the x has it's own unique sound. Really can't go wrong either way.

Black cobra

Well I dont think my borla is the most power either for the exhaust the way it gos in and back out 2 the side.. But yes I really do agree thats the best sounding car I have almost ever heard! :D

Now I do the The BBk off road H that bolts 2 the stock headers.
And I just wanted to kno what would be the best route for the 40s ?

do they make a system that bolts into the H pipe that I can bolt on?
or do I have to get a stock exhaust and have them old mufflers cut off and weld the new ones on?

Yeah, just a catback system. Summit racing sells them fairly cheap.

If you can jack the car up on jackstands in the rear, you can install the kit. Welding mufflers in place is kinda ghetto imo, but to each his own.

Summit has 15% off until 12/17 too. I'm sure you can get a very good price for the SVO side skirts and Borla exhaust, they are rare and guys will pay.

The american thunder is 2 chamber. I would also leave the side exhaust on though.

Yeah I like the skirts and side exhaust, can't you just cut out Borla muffs and replace with Flows?

Borla side pipes go in the muffler, make a 90* turn, then come out the same side of the muffler. You could put flows in their place but they would have to be about 1 foot upstream in the exhaust. Then you run into clearance issues with the driveshaft or, by making them low enough to clear the shaft, they scrape everywhere.

I have a fabbed side exhuast on my car and straight through mufflers were the only ones that would work, like bullets, SLP LMs, borla stingers, etc. They are the only ones small enough to not rub the driveshaft.

I have mac long tubes, off road X and stingers with a custom side exit and they sound awesome. Pretty reasonable under 3k RPM but then it is ridiculously loud at WOT. A few members on here have heard it in person. The borlas have a more exotic sound at WOT compared to other mufflers.:awsome:

mineralrob
12-17-2010, 11:59 AM
I agree. On dans car it has a unique sound that i could never quite put my hands on with the borlas. Nice and loud at wot but a nice tone at cruising. The stingers are pricey but they def sound good. I even have borla stinger tips on my flowmaster cb.. Tone IMO is one of the biggest thing then next how loud it's.

Heres mine with a pypes offroad x and 2 chamber flow's. Not everyone likes it buttt it works for me and it was easy on the wallet. :twothumbsup:

I agree with you, SLP on mustangs just dont sound right too raspy!
Now slp sounds the best on an ls1 !! and all ls motors for that matter.

And I would love to come and hear ur stangs!! =)

:goodidea: i agree the gm cars soung good with it,ive heard them at wexford couple times and they sound good. also long tube headers will make your car sound much better also.

I was looking at BBK shorty headers that should fit my BBK O/R H pipe
for 289 off ebay new.

Now long tubes or shortys? and WHY?

cemnt guy
12-20-2010, 03:59 PM
mac ceramic long tubes can be had on ebay for 400 or less shipped. as for headers go long or go without! once again thats just my opinion:goodidea:

why, dont the shortys sound or more power?
See I have The BBK O/R H pipe that bolts 2 the stock headers and I think
They would bolt right up 2 The BBK Shortys..

The torque you get from LT's works out great for 4valves since they lack it. Stay away from mac headers, get something with a solid flange like hooker, or bbk.
