Depends... what are you looking for?

Do you want a little more sound and some performance? Go with a GT take off... good price, not too loud and nice gain...

For a lot more sound and more performance I like my MRT Aero-Turbine. Head turning sound and more performance.. but it's loud! LOL! My write-up including pics, videos and dyno sheets are are: MRT Axle Back

i do have 3 quick questions for you though. is that the MRT Aero-Turbine in the 4 videos on the website you sent? how close does it get to touching? and it sounds really loud im not sure if its my computer or the actual car but do you know if its legal in CA? (i know probably a stupid question but i'm just checking)

I have the Flowmaster American Thunder single for the V6 and LOVE it! You can't go wrong with this if you stay single.. If you wannna go duals, the GT take offs or the Flowmaster model 40s would be BOSS! Enjoy...

Don't want to steal this thread or anything, but I too was thinking of throwing the GT takeoffs onto my V6, but only want to use one of them. Eventually I want to get the Ford Racing dual exhaust and a more expensive axle-back, but it won't be until mid summer. Would it work to just throw one on or is it the wrong size piping/etc.?

hey guys I would also like to know why not to put duals on a new model mustang because I just dont it today on my 07....I bought a 1 into 2 system simply because of prices but really because I didnt want to cut on my pipes.it came from ninosport.com and it came with new gt take off mufflers and all the pre-bent pipe and clamps,hangers.ect oh by the way it does sound good and did make a noticeable difference in takeoff power.

I have the single axle back American thunder and i had a rev contest against an 03 GT today and won (he had stock exhaust though) but he doesnt have a rev limiter and i do and mine was still miles louder and nicer sounding, i cant imagine how it would sound with pipes and a second axle back
