This quiets the car considerably.

A word of advice.
A professional builder friend built a FF Daytona and powered it with a 650HP stroked FE. It's primarily for track and he immediately noticed that the motor hit an RPM wall about 5000 and determined the 'stock' Coupe quad small block sidepipes were too small. He fabricated basically a 427 sidepipe and found 6800 RPM again. Totally different on-track power.
And adding 40-50 pounds of undercar pipes won't help.
If appearance is all that matters, ignore...
