Which mufflers to choose?

Trying to decide which axle-backs to choose for my 13 gt. I think i have narrowed it down to flowmaster outlaw, flowmaster american thunder, or gt500. My previous vehicle was a '11 f-150 with the 5.0, which had 40 series flowmaster single in dual out on it. I loved the way the truck sounded with the flowmasters on it. I want loud, deep sound without the ricey or fart can sound. Can someone with any of these 3 setups chime in with your thoughts please? Thanks in advance. PS i have listened to sound clips of all 3 but doubt the sound produced on here do any of them justice.

GT500. For the money you can't beat them.

I haven't heard any other mufflers in person - I had to make my decision off of sounds clips at AM and Youtube.

About the GT500's though - I've seen people's heads snap around from me just starting my car. I think they sound great!

Hushpowers seem to be a nice sounding setup if you dont want it too loud but louder then the GT500s.

It's tough deciding, I literally sat for hours for several days listening to clips. Good speakers and/or headphones work best

Well I just happen to LOVE my Amer. Thunder mufflers. That burble and pop on deceleration is just too cool.

I can't stand my Bassani mufflers. I would check out Mac mufflers.

You add to cart then name your price then they email you with the best price and it's probably 309 shipped

304 shipped. I guess they went down a little. That's a cool site. Thanks for the link.
