Daily Driving a Straight Piped Mustang GT... How BAD is it? 2007 Mustang GT CS, MBRP Muffler Delete

- Опубліковано 27 сер 2022
- After 3 months of ownership with Rue, the Redfire 2007 Mustang GT California Special, check out today's video as a "vlog" style discussion regarding whether it's "worth it" and just how bad it is to "daily drive" a modern V8 muscle car with no exhaust.
Here's a link to the first time picking her up and Sara's reaction on her first ride.

05 to 14 are the best looking mustangs
I love them! Thanks for watching.
I’m getting an 06 GT can’t wait love 03-04 I have an 04 GT already FBO LOVE IT Going to do the same to this 06 but I plan on camming it and modding more 🐎💪🏽
05-09, 10-12 are a close second for me
@@WiseUpRiseUp42did you get it ? I’m getting my 2007 Shelby gt this week !
I like the 04 that I had but my 06 is the best. I wish they made my 06 with the 04 interior
“Can’t drive you don’t have any thumbs”😂😂😂
Glad someone caught that! Haha
🍔
Nice Stang dude, Sounds good, I like em' loud
I've been daily driving my 06' gt drop top for 10 years. , bbk shorties, h pipe, muffler deleat, Pypes resonator axle back .
It's music to my ears.
Thanks. Can’t beat em hahaha. Drop top must be fun. I’d love to scoop up a vert one of these days. Thanks for watching, have a great night.
I have an 07 GT with BBK long tubes and catted x pipe and the same MBRP muffler deletes…it’s REALLY loud lol. Like this one but worse and with a lot of rasp in the mid range. I might be getting some GT500 mufflers on her soon
Sounds like a screamer to me! Haha send me the link if you end up making a video with the GT500 mufflers.
Hell yes want a 3V next after my 2v 94 GT
I want a 2v to play around with after the Chevelle project is complete. Thanks for watching!
do you know if i could program the key so the top goes down when i turn it on or if there is a remote i could get ?
you car sounds amazing. mine is a 10 gt. 4.6 3 valve as well. bbk shorties, bbk adjustable axle backs, baffled cutouts, pypes high flow cats. brenspeed detroit rockers, dyno tuned...super fun engine and best sounding! in modern times.
Thanks for watching. I love the sound! I agree. You’ve got a 2010, beautiful newer S197. Can’t wait to own one of those body styles in the future.
Such a BEAUTIFUL car!!!🫡
Thanks for watching!
Sounds awesome man have 05 gt with headers catless H-pipe and muffler deletes sounds awesome
Looks like a clean car from your profile pic. Thanks!
Nice car bro I also have an 07 redfire gt/cs with bama tune jlt intake and flomaster cat back sounds amazing definitely not anywhere loud as yours. I have the automatic unfortunately is yours auto or manual? Keep up the good content.
She’s a manual! Sounds like a cool setup. I’m sure the automatic has its perks. Thanks for watching
Smoked front blinkers would have looked better but hey I got LED brake lights...😮 If you pull the seal on the hood by the window the hot air will escape a lot faster keeping her breathing better...😮 Old Corvette trick!
Amazing car brother! First, I love the puppy and he is such a good boy. Second, do you pass inspection with no cat? I still have mine and I'm scared to take it off. I have a 2008 GT with an X-Pipe. Thanks.
Thanks, she’s not perfect. But tons of fun for now. Short answer… the car would not pass Missouri inspection without cats. Check engine light is on for two bank 02 sensors not being connected at all.
Full disclosure: I put an ad up on marketplace for “inspection recommendations” with a picture of the car. Some random dude told me to take the car to a specific shop and ask for a specific person. Let’s put it this way… inspection was a little more expensive.
I left there with a passed inspection and the understanding that I had “modified my car after I left the inspection…” if you catch my drift. Anything is possible.
Apologies for the longwinded response, but I left this exhaust setup as a temporary setup. The car is capable of a lot more power with a proper setup. I have full intentions of installing a BBK setup this winter: headers, high flow cats, x or h pipe, and maybe keep the MBRP muffler delete or go borla Atak. Hope this helps!
@@backcountrybuilds Great stuff my friend. I can't wait to see what you add to the pony. I also love your hood scoop, that baby looks mean! Take care bud.
You can buy mini cats on American muscle
Sick car bro used to own a 2v recently sold it . Daily drive a B9 A4 but always wanted a 3V …..purchasing one soon !!! Get the doggo a seatbelt harness 😆🤝🏽🔥
The A4s are fun. Stay safe. For sure, we hooked him up with a harness for the truck right after this! Thanks for watching.
Your Mustang looks nice 👍🏽. Where do you get rear bumper skirt ? It looks better than the stock one. I think it’s called dual exhaust valance skirt. Rt?
Thanks so much. It’s the California special (GT/CS) edition! Comes with two tone seats, dash, GT500 style front and rear bumpers, and a few other minor accents.
@@backcountrybuilds thanks for getting back to me. So for the rear bumper it’s GT500 style? Do I get that from American Muscles? You must get a lot of offers on your car.

Hope this helps! The car definitely turns some heads. I think the lack of mufflers might help with that, too…
I have a 08 gtcs just like that mine is far from stock, it's not done yet but I hope to have it on the road this summer God willing. Here is what I have for it now, edelbrock super charger, Comp cams, American racing long tube headers, American Racing high flow cats, Rouch stainless tails with highly polished tips. As far as the wheels, American Racing tourqe thrust 18 by 12 in back and 18 by 11 in front chrome, she looks sweet can't wait to get her on the road. She only has 27,000 miles on the clock. By the way it's black.
Sounds like quite the machine. Best of luck to you with getting it back on the road. Thanks for watching. Keep me in the loop on how it goes for you. Sounds like you’d leave this stockish car at the starting line hhahaha
Question. Are those headlight factory tinted, covers or, did you tint them yourself?
They’re Raxiom Euro Headlights. The ones I got are factory style replacement housings that are black lens and black housing. I can’t seem to find them onAmerican Muscle right now. The part number is 49902. Here’s a link to the clear lens black housing ones that are comparable but not quite as dark:

Best of luck! Hope this helps. Thanks for watching.
@@backcountrybuilds Sorry for the late reply. Thanks for the part #'
Just got through putting some BBK shorty headers and
C&L Sport Axle-Back Exhaust with Black Tips on my '07. She sounds like a Mustang should, now. Much better than the stock Ford Racing exhaust I had on it. Wasn't easy on the drivers side for the headers though. One bolt like to have made me give up after dropping it like 100 x's. 🤕 Header tube design where this bolt went was right inline with the bolt placement and the bolt was 3/8 of an inch too long for it to fit. Ended up going to Advanced Auto Parts and finding a match but, shorter to use. Still, a pain in the arse getting it but... Wait, that didn't come out right. 😆 Anyway, after dropping it a few more times, it worked. She's sweet sounding now, even from inside the car. 😉
I just got one last week with 100k flat miles has carb legal headers, airaid intake, short shifter and suspension work but stock muffler what should I get
I’ve always had good luck with Borla if you’re looking to make it sound pretty nasty. Can’t go wrong with Flowmaster though.
If you install long tube headers with high flow cats will it still be loud and clean build man 🔥
Sooooon soon soon
Nice GT/CS, I have a loud one like that, x pipe, headers, pypes bombs, my daily driver in England 👍
Nice! Must be fun. Even if you’re driving on the wrong side of the road. Thanks for watching
Did you change the lights behind ? it looks like a 2014 model....
I did! The taillights are 2013-2014 style. I love them.

Hey how good is it on gas how many times you refuel if you daily it
Tank is super small! I think it’s 12 gallons, so it hurts less to fill… I believe usually around 15-18mpg, but I’ve seen up to 22 on long road trips.
Enjoy your car and drive it, that is what was intended for not to keep it in a garage just for looks.
That’s for sure the right attitude. Thanks for watching!
I like the sound tbh
Thanks. She sounds mean and is tons of fun! Glad you enjoyed.
is your engine light on from being straight piped?
Yes, missing O2 sensors from the cats being gone.
We need more mustang vids!!!
Deal. Anything specific you wanna see? I’m thinking rolling shots and flybys at sunset
Yes I’m buying one Friday! Same color and California special as well
I plan to daily drive mines too so this was perfect
puppy dog enjoing it ..noiced the neighbours mustang..the white one
Love that ole S550. We definitely lucked out with the neighborhood in terms of loud vehicles hahaha
What’s the best that you used in the video?
The best?
@@backcountrybuilds Lool sorry the beat*
i also have a gt cs, very nice car
Helllll yeah. Lots of fun for what they are!
I daily my 89 gt 100 miles a day to and from work I put 30000 miles on it last year alone it has 175009 miles on it as well
Holy smokes 30k miles in a year is impressive. I wouldn’t have any ear drums left if I did that in this car.
Condo association has a problem with mine. Not even straight piped
Hahaha, classic.
Do you have a check engine light V
Yes indeed. But can clear it with scanner. Its just for the O2
Rolling shots would be cool
Deal. I’ve got a buddy with some photography skills, good cameras, and a drone. Stay tuned, thanks for the feedback.
@@backcountrybuilds keep up the good work bud this will take time but it will payoff in the end.
I have a Mustang like that and I drive it every day
Enjoy it! Thanks for watching.
I got a 09 vista blue one
How many miles? Love the blue
@@backcountrybuilds I recently made a video on it on my channel it's got 98.000 miles on it now I got it for 6500$ I like the color blue with white stripes I do need a new GT/CS stripe but it's hard to find a white one
'Oops there's a road kill.' How fresh was it?
Hahahaha I plead the fifth. Thanks for watching!
@@backcountrybuilds I thought it funny that you actually mentioned it in the video. Reason for my comment. It reminded me of an early morning run to pick up something for someone and I was with a friend. It was around 06:30 AM and I saw a fresh kill, so fresh that, when his high-beams hit it, you could still see how wet the blood on the road was and I noticed it was a large wild boar. Hell, his tusks were around 6-7 inches long, big boar. I said, 'Fresh roadkill, let's get it." he was like, 'I don't have the time.' I also told him, 'If we don't the next guy somewhere behind us will.' We were heading back about 25 minutes later and sure enough, it was gone. Only thing left was the blood spot. Hahaha! I love being a country boy. 🤣
U have on a x pipe or h pipe?
Neither… straight pipe off the header to the muffler delete. No connection at all between the two piped, true dual. Not the most desirable nor powerful setup, but it sure sounds good (for now). Hahaha
@@backcountrybuilds get rid of that shit and put catless h. It will perform better have better low end and it will even sound better r
@@midnight347 you right. Been shopping around. I’m thinkin BBK… Whatchu think?
I have x pipe on mine I feel your pain bud to damn loud
So how much did you pay 💰 for your 07 Mustang???
$11.5
@@backcountrybuilds $11 ???
@@parbhumanga528 yes sir. Thousand hahaha
@@backcountrybuilds $1000 will then you got more than a bargain. And here in New Zealand 🇳🇿 I paid $20,000 for the Mustang and then when I bought it home from the seller the stupid thing wouldn’t run properly so needed a total rebuild there goes another $20,000 for the Mustang people here we get ripped off. I love 💕 Mustang’s that’s why I bought it
@@parbhumanga528 sorry to hear you got got. I’m sure the car ended up being a little fun hahaha. Best of luck in the future.
If the ears don't bleed than it isn't loud enough 😂
Hahaha. Thanks for watching!
I want one. I am 58 yrs and ok midlife crisis maybe.
I had a quarter life crisis. It’s a blast
Ditch the back ground music
Learning more with every video. Will do, thanks for the feedback
Should’ve let doggo drive man😢
He failed his driver test! No thumbs. Thanks for watching.
You need to professionally tune it you will be amazed at the difference than those junky bama tines
I bet you’re right. She ran good enough for what I was doing, but would be fun to get it really dialed in with a professional tune.
Thanks for watching. Stay safe
Wish the 3v was fast :/
You ain’t wrong
@@backcountrybuilds I'm godzilla swapping mine, cammed it and all, and it was still the same speed, I recommend a paxton honestly
@@hithereperson8137 hell yeah. Sounds like a ton of fun
@@backcountrybuilds we're gonna see, waiting on 10 week lead time headers sadly
I bet my little 2014 3.7 takes you 😏
I bet you’re damn right hahaha
You have 40 ft-lbs of torque less if you’re stock. And your car does not sound anywhere near as good as a 3V.
@@newfie-dean5803 actually on my 3.7 have a ported n upper & lower intake from auto mafia racing & borla ATAK exhaust & some stuff & it’s not cheap 😏
I can’t tell you every thing I did too it I did a lots of homework about my 3,7 thanks too Matt & 3seven stang just line up if you think ur 4.6 ready 😏😏
@@lifewith26gang45 well you can mod a 3V too. Look up Four Eyes mustang and see him beat Camaros, new Coyote mustangs, etc. and he’s naturally aspirated. Regardless of your mods, it still sounds like a V6 and the 05-09 body style looks so much better with a true retro look.
