I'm about to upgrade my 04 Crown Vic's mufflers from stock to Thursh Turbo mufflers (2.25" Inlet/Outlet). I've had glasspacks and Flowmaster mufflers on others vehicles in the past so this is the first time using Thursh. Hoping they sound good.

Anyone know if there's a significant difference between a Thrush Turbo muffler vs. Thrush Welded muffler?

Go to YouTube.com and search for some of the files. Lots of people have videos of their cars/trucks/bikes idling and running wiht different mufflers. Check out the Crown Vics, Grand Marguis, and Mustang videos with Thrush mufflers to see

It's just a SUPER-DUTY Mustang GT Sedan. 198K miles and still rolling HARD.

STOCK?? I bet it was modified.

13.26 @ 107.24 MPH 1/4 mi w/ me, tools, & full tank of 93 octane

I added CAI, NICHE 19 X 8.5 " wheels with 245/45ZR 19 rubbers, and completely rebuilt the front end with poly bushings, Kooks headers, 2 1/4inch exhaust, TCI 2200-2400 rpm Stall converter

+1 on the videos they are a really good way to get an idea on sound

I like the turbo mufflers a little better as the sound is deep but mellow the welded will usually be a deep sharp sound similar to a cherry bomb.
