What Exhaust on a GT/CS Do you have?
I have a basically stock GT/CS with an AIRAID CAI and now thinking of an axle back exhaust. Any suggestions? I saw a Craigslist add for Magnaflow that a guy has in great condition for $150.00 but I don't know much aboout them. My other choice is the Flowmaster American Thunder I have Flowmasters on my '65 and like them. Any ideas, suggestions? I want a nice sound but not too loud to wake the neighbors as this is my daily driver.

I was going to say, "Go to Mustang Magic, where I got my (second) set of GTAs for $329", but I see they have gone up to $479 by now.
BuyFordRacing has them for $359:

The GTAs are very satisfying in all respects, so far. Two sets for a total of nearly three years and no complaints about loudness, quietness, or durability, and they ring like a bell when you flick the tips (that's an important test).
I also have two sets of rolled-chrome-tipped GT/CS mufflers moldering in the outbuilding.
I would recommend against basing your choice on online videos. They are notoriously not representative of the real thing, but are fun if you have some time to waste.

I'm running the GTA's also. Got them for $258.50. Don't know if I'd pay the going price now. I wish they were a little louder. Thinking of trying a set of Pype-Bombs??? They're around $220 from American Muscle with the registry discount. I test drove a 'stang with Borla stingers and it sounded great... if you drove it like a racecar. Otherwise, the drone was awful trying to drive "normal" around town.

Got Maggies on mine. Love the sound, low and deep and is wicked enough when trouncing on it that a friend with a 6.o GTO and Flows give a big compliment on how good it sounded.

The video that sold me..http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7zdkcZozWKE
WIFE: I HATE driving in your car. It's too loud.
ME: Oh, what a shame. I can't stand the fact that you don't want to drive in my car.

FRPP/ Borla Stingers, they sound great. Drone a bit now about 1800 RPM's, at first the would rattle your teeth but the drone mellowed out after about 2000 miles. First 500 were killer though and not in a good way.
they sound great, flowmasters are way too quiet on our cars,
