Best muffler for a V6 mustang?

I just bought my 2013 V6 mustang last week and the sound isn't suiting me all that well, it's not bad, just not good enough. I want to buy a new muffler to either have a nice sports car/race car sound or something nice and deep but not too throaty and gurgly. What are y'all's opinion on the best sounding mufflers and brands on this car?

It Depends on several things:
1. Does the price matter to you?
Cheap: Pypes Bomb, Mac $290-$400,
Mid priced: Roush, Bassani, Flowmaster-Force II, SLP $450-$575
Expensive: Borla, Corsa, Ford Racing, Mangnaflow Competition (cat-back) $600-$750

2. Do you want it extremely loud?
Cop magnet loud: Roush, Borla-Atak, Pypes-Bomb, Magnaflow-Competition
Moderately loud, but stealth mode until you punch it:
Borla Sport, Ford Racing Sport. Corsa-Sport, Flowmaster-Force II, Bassani, Magnaflow Street

3. Do you care about drone? Drone= a howling or humming noise fills the inside of the car, always present at certain speeds).
Very loud drone: Roush, Magnaflow-Comp,
Medium loud drone: Borla-Atak, Pypes-Bomb, Flowmaster-Force II, Magnaflow Street, Bassani, Mac
Little or no drone at whatsoever: Borla-Sport, Corsa-Sport, Ford Racing-Sport.

Don't bother buying touring exhaust. A little too quiet for the money. Most touring mufflers are deeper, but not very much louder than stock and they cost more than the loud ones. If you read the Mustang Forums, Ford Racing Sport and Borla Sport are the most popular choice, because they're not too loud or quiet and have zero drone. But, they also cost the most.

If you could get the take-off exhaust off a V8 car for cheap, that would be your best deal.

Well you're not going to get it to sound anything like a V8 if that's what you're aiming for, but magnaflow or something might help it sound SLIGHTLY better.

Go to your local auto parts store and get a glass pack for each end of your exhaust its AMAZING

  • What muffler should I put on my GMC Yukon? I have a 2003 GMC yukon with the 4.8L. I want something deep and throaty and noticeable, but not too extreme because it is a daily driver and I would like to keep it somewhat classy, plus I like to hear the radio and people talking. I've had only Flowmasters on past vehicles, I've had the 40, 44 and 10s in the past but always on Ford engines. Any suggestions? Don't have to be flowmasters by the way
  • What kind of muffler should I get? So I recently got a 95 ford mustang and I'm looking into putting a new muffler on it. Actually I'm. I want it to sound more beastly and mean. I'm either putting a flow master 40 series or 44 super series. Also it's a 3.8L v6. Out of those two what one should I get? I don't want to add new pipes. Later on I might add a cat back but I don't know.
  • Will cutting off the muffler cut gas milage? I have an '83 Ford F150, i want to make it ear shatteringly loud, but not wanna mess with the mileage I have. It didn't come with a catalytic converter, and i was planning on cutting off right before the muffler and leaving it. Where i would cut it is about halfway down the truck where cab and box meet. Anyone foresee any problems?
  • Where to get a flowmaster muffler with pipe and tip? I have a 2003 Ford f150 super crew 5.4l xlt v8 triton and I was wondering where I could get a flowmaster muffler with the pipe and tip. I'm hoping to get this without the whole exhaust system. I'd also be interested in Magnaflow too.
