yea the mustangs were designed to sound good. I heard the camaro designers wanted our cars to sound "European." I think its hard to make a mustang sound bad.

Do you think with this same setup minus the headers because I have a LFX and the MRT V1 will it be close?

Not true.

Anyways...I've listened to many Mustang V6 videos with long tube headers and in my opinion the Camaro has a slightly lower, more refined tone. I feel the Camaro has a slightly lower pitch (V8 guys dont need your lip here lol). This particular mustang is just a bit over the top and raspy.

You want loud, raspy, and lots of growl you can do it in a Camaro as well:


But again that one is a bit loud/raspy for my tastes.

Nope....you need the LT headers to get that kind of growl.

The headers are what add the growl so without headers, you can't achieve it

If you add a tru x-pipe and delete the resonators, you might get a deep sound but you definitely will get a really really raspy car. If you going for the growl, it won't be there. It'll just be rasp

I don't want rasp, a little little bit is ok but deffintly don't want a lot.... Do you think the resonated x-pipe is the better way to go?

Nah, your gonna need headers for that kind of sound. Im not really into the whole raspy sound business. Thats why I went with corsa. I have the LFX and love the sound. No rasp or drone though, so if thats something you want dont go with the corsa.
