it depends on the sound you want. i wanted loud so i deleted my axle backs it cost me like 150-200 to do it. flowmaster 40s sound good.

by the way great color choice.

is it a gt or a v6??
either way the only thing you can really do is buy some aftermarket mufflers. I love the Hooker mufflers. They sound great and there very high quality. But you cant really go wrong with name brands like pypes, slp, flowmaster, etc...

You will need 300.00 for a true dual kit ,, then have it installed ,, Get a GT Take off and install just the right one

for that kind of money newtakeoff.com would be your best bet to fit close to your budget or look in your local craigs list ive seen several dual exhaust kits for like 130

GT takeoff is probably your best bet for that money..now if u walk into 300$ or so, go with BORLA! its the best exhaust system you can buy

I just picked up a pair of GT mufflers for $20 with less than 20k miles on them locally. Shop around and find your local Mustang boards/clubs.

I got a GT muffler takeoff from ninosports for $70 after shipping. I felt a suttle difference in power (people said it was about 8-10 rwhp) but it also sounded much better. Im pretty pleased with the route i took. Id def recomend getting a gt takeoff

first thing i did was buy a set of gt takeoffs, got them from ninosport too. ran one till i could come up with pipes to go dual, at which time i put the other one on. i like em, they are not obnoxious, and come alive when you nail it. you could find used ones pretty cheap, but the takeoffs are like brand new. 2 mufflers for less than the price of 2 muffler hangers is not bad, and they fit right on. the tips will stick out a couple inches cause they are straight instead of curved like the v6 muff, but not bad.
