They suck!

Do a search, there was a big thread about what people thought of SLP starting to come int ot he Mustang crowd. I for one don't like it. Not to mention I hate the way SLP sounds on Mustangs, hate hate hate it!

Re: GTStang SLP?

Yeah...I did a search and read several threads about how they 'suck' but I haven't come acrossed any that have a point any better than 'it's originally fbody exhaust!'. So if you could link me to one I'm over looking I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

Re: GTStang SLP?

Simply put performance wise they don’t suck what so ever they are pretty good Muscle mustang and fast ford has it on there project icebox and they love it also they did a test with a stock 97 gt and when they used slp longtube headers x pipe and catback they netted a second gain in the 1/4 mile. Now a lot of people don’t like them bc they were a gm only company and now they came over to the mustang world so a lot of mustang owners don’t like them. Personally I like them a lot bc in my opinion i don’t care if they are gm or no or what ever i look at the performance numbers and that’s what I care about. Gtstang has made very good points about how he doesn’t like them and his opinions should be respected and hiflow hates the sound. It’s all personal taste. I personally believe they are high quality all stainless steel. That’s just my . so there you have it.

If you read the threads you know my feelings about SLP. You do not have to agree with how I feel about the subject. You can have your SLP exhuast, but I will personally view anyone with one as a poser who doesn't appreciate the years of hardwork put to create the marketplace they now get to enjoy.

As far as MM&FF/5.0 testing them SLP I personally could care less about that. MM&FF/5.0 are all about making money these days and have lost being about the passion of Stangers which is how they started.

These are the same companies that ran ads for Cincinnati Composites for over 2 years well after it was know by the mags, that all CC were in the business of was selling junk and ripping stang owners off.

Re: GTStang SLP?

To me, they're like a cheaper magnaflow. They sound very similar to magnaflow and they're about $100 or so dollars less. but...I still might go with magnapacks/x-pipe.

Re: GTStang SLP?

I read some threads. I didn't see any that had your standings on it...I just read a few people saying that sucked. I know I don't have to agree with you...but I want to be 100% sure when I do buy my exhaust..and this is kind of making me think twice about it. That and SLP exhaust is LOUD.

I don't think SLP is that loud, esp compared to my MAC set up. Again, I think SLP sounds fucking horriable on Mustangs, I have heard them in person and its very raspy and very poppy, like popping popcorn.

Bobby and I hate them for the same reasons. They spent countless years making only F-body parts and wanted nothing to do witht he Mustang crowd. Then what happened, no more Camaro, so they jump on the Mustang wagon, but just the newer stangs, but could care less about the older FOX generation.

Re: GTStang SLP?

You know, 2 years ago some people said the same thing about a little company called Air Flow Research that was just beginning to make SBF heads after years of Bowtie products......LOL.

I agree, the SLP exhaust sounds crappy. Then again, I never heard many F-bodies that sounded good to me.

And what do I know, I hate the sound of Bassani exhaust and I LOVE MY FLOWMASTERS!

Re: GTStang SLP?

ohhh. i see. you're just mad that SLP doesn't make parts for your foxbody! That's all that is! haha. no I'm just kidding. I haven't heard SLP in person...just sound files. Once again I'm leaning back to magnapacks/magnaflow xpipe.
