Mon, 12 Dec 2011 03:55:00 +0000 http://blog.americanmuscle.com/?p=714#comment-57189 Got a question. Can the FR500S mufflers be installed on the 2011 + V6 Mustang. I like the Ford Racing Sport Axlebacks for the V6 but the FR500S sound better to me. It has a 2.5" pipe but I have heard that the mounting points are different on the 2011+ cars. Got a question.

Ride a 2010.  No matter what type of exhaust you put on the V6 it's not going to sound near as good as the V8.   I love my little V6 and it's pumping out some good power now and got great suspension.   But, it will never be as nice as my V8.  Close , after 4000 dollars later but that only makes sense if your V6 is paid off and your trying to keep your insurance low.  Otherwise the best option is trade up for the V8. But to state the V6 is better when I own both I'm going to call that BS out right now.l  Love em' both but when my V6 gets 17 mpg and the V8 gets 17mpg in the city and in many cases I've seen my V8 get better due to the fact it can get to the power bands faster and get to cruising speed I almost feel that at bone stock the V8 was the better of the two.   And you going to say a V6 felt better?  Bone stock buddy that's just a crock of total crap.  The V8 ride is smooth and silky.  Sorry, I'm just calling this one out here.   If you want me to prove it look at my image of the V6 and it's super sweet and looks nicer than my 2010 I posted also.  But in no way is it better than my V8 period end of story.  My proof is own I both and here in the pic they are!  I call out BS when I see it.

It has a true dual exhaust on it, and i put a drop in filter of a K&N. I was going to build a custom CAI but then i decided it wasn't worth the money putting into it. Don't get me wrong, I love speeding around town in my v6, because it looks cool (Chrome cobra rims, nice red color that i wash and wax a bit and take care of it etc.) But when it comes down to it...I won't dump money into because 1. Its an automatic. And 2. Its not a GT...I am a little versed in cars but not much. So i'd probably F it up. But...I was needing some help. I wanted to know what people recomended as far as V6's and V8's, but I also wanted to know what people prefered as far as stick and auto were concnered. If someone can help me, hit me up at Dgrissam3@yahoo.com Would give my army email..but no. Lol I own a 2000 V6 Automatic Mustang.

I run a 9.8 1/4 car. 521 CU naturally asperated and it runs 131 mph. I also own a 2002 3.8 K & N CAI with a Gforce chip, that is installed properly with dual ex, what a fun fast car for the streets and has beat v8 and a GT. If you really want to dominate just add twin turbo's First I want to say, some of you V 8 guys are dont have a clue. I run a 9.8 1/4 car. 521 CU naturally asperated and it runs 131 mph.
