Need Exhaust help!!!

[Justintime540]

Well i just recently had a magnaflow cat back performance system (15881) put on my 05 mustang gt. Dealer swore it would have a nice loud sound and deep tone, i admit it has the deep tone but wasnt nearly loud enough, almost sounds like the stock exhaust. Cant hear it idle at all just when you gas it, and still not loud. By the way i am really new to fixin up cars so bear with me. haha

Just lookin for some recommendations here, i want louder but i want it too sound like mustang, not a tin can or anything like that. Have seen vids where they have different brands on one exhaust. O and the dealer said he could but an x-pipe on which will make it louder. I live in CA and the there are limits on what i can do legally so keep that in mind, so i probably have ta keep cats on. So any tips or anything will help. So thanks in advance for the help

My hubby put a bassani exhaust on his Lightning with midpipes and it took about 3 months for it to sound great. It has to burn in, so to speak. When he first put it on w/o the midpipes, it sounded a bit weak. The midpipes made all the difference, but it still took the 3 mos...probably would have been less but he doesn't drive it everyday. Good luck with yours!
