[DeTomaso] Pantera headers and mufflers - Another source

Thu May 30 16:00:35 EDT 2013

I would recommend Magnaflow mufflers, they're full flow with little HP loss and the quietest I've heard when cruising but, they come alive when you get on the throttle.

Since we are on the topic of headers and mufflers - what is the quietest 
option out there? And, yes, I know quiet equals horsepower loss - but I 
really appreciate a car that is not really loud.

Well that's not cool. I was aiming for a set of these but now I'm not 
so certain. Most of my driving is at freeway speeds around 70 MPH. I'd 
hate to have that resonance playing most of the time.
