Exclamation Let's Play a Game ... Guess That Exhaust !

I just bought a 2006 Mustang GT and it has an aftermarket exhaust but I don't know the make and model. It is louder than stock but not as loud as my Corsas were on my 2005 (in a previous life !!!)

Here are some pics to help my search

Anybody got a clue

The previous owner thinks they were either Ford Racing or Bullitt exhaust but there is no markings on them (typically found on Ford Racing) and those tips don't really look like the ones on a Bullitt ....

No idea doesn't look much different from stock....is it stock catback but just have a different midpipe to make it louder than just stock?

Talking Just proves the stockers sound pretty good

suggestion- from looking at the side muffler/underbody pic, might want to scrape off that outer frame rail rust/ospho etch the bare metal/paint before winter salt sinks its teeth in...stone chips underneath start that stuff, MUCH easier to stop sooner rather than later

I like POR-15 on bare/rusted spots(POR will NOT stick to painted areas- but on etched bare/rusty stuff it takes a grinder to remove), long as ospho treated first, anything is better than nothing. I overcoated my wheelhouse areas with rollon bedliner- my 59k mile 06 has never seen salt- looks like new underneath compared to the wifes 15k mile 07(driven a few times one winter).

heres a link to why i hate rust so bad- a 65 galaxie:

sorry for the rust hijack...i just love these mustangs, hope to see a lot of them still on the road many years from now

I truly ment nothing by it, it just looks like my old tips I used to have, only mine had screws to screw them on, I actually did get mine at AutoZone. those are clearly not screw on and look nice, I wouldn't stress on it too bad. Switch em' out if you don't like Em! CraigsList someone would by them quick! I would of you was in AZ, I still have factory on mine.

I like the tips and the mufflers. I am just curious in knowing what brand they are.

Btw, this car will not see winter driving.

It actually does look like the stock exhaust just with tips added. How big are the tips? Are they 3.5" or 4"?

FYI, after some research I'm 99% sure they are the Shelby GT mufflers aka GTA

I can guarantee those are GTA mufflers. I have a set from a Foose Stallion sitting in my garage. Too quiet for my taste but they do sound a bit loud when you open them up. BTW Auto cars had quieter mufflers then manual cars so these seemed quieter then my stock GT mufflers on my manual 05 GT.
