Default 2001 mustang catback exhaust

i just bought a 2001 ford mustang 3.8L v6. i have been looking around to get a catback exhaust. i just looked at faggens auto parts and they told me that the whole exhaust would cost me 500 dollars for a flowmaster. is that a good price or could i get a different one that would do the same thing. if someone could please help me that would be great. thank you

Is it $500 for just a single exhaust set up? If it is that is way too high, shop around muffler shops or as anyone that knows off anyone with a decent price. You can dual flowmasters for less than $500 installed. I got mine for $350 but now I'm starting to find them cheaper, around $200-250.

Whatever you get get a dual exhaust conversion kit. More power and a better sound. Also get all Stainless Steel. Aluminized steel sucks and in my experince only lasts 4 or 5 years. And yes $500 for a single pipe catback exhaust installed is a bit high.

If possible, do you have any local muffler shops around? They might quote you less for the parts and labor.

You can try, get a quote and see if it's at a decent price. So you don't have any local muffler shops that specialize in just exhaust components?
