question about exuast tips

im probly gonna get luaghed out of town for this one but im stupid when it comes to most of this stuff and want to ask the pros about it before i waste money. first off i want to ask if a 30 dollar exuast tip on my stock sytem will change the sound at all. im running a 94 aerostar with a 3.0. second with that engine would it be worth it to try some glass packs to change the sound of the exuast note at all with out that rat farting in a tin can. i want to have some sound coming from it but without sounding like a rice burner. is this possible, or am i stuck with the serene whisper of the stock exuast.

Don't buy the tip! Get a Flowmaster 60 Series Delta Flow(flowmastermufflers.com), they are for 4 and 6cyl. vehicles.
Also get a stainless tip.......they are maintenance free compared to chrome tips. The Flowmaster's come in stainless now also.
Post the the results no matter what you decide to do.

question about exuast tips

I don't know if this would even apply to you but, I bought a 40 series and a 3.5 inch tip for my truck. I only had the time to install the tip right away and man... what a difference in sound... I have a different motor than you . I have the 5.4 v8. I have a sound clip with everything stock (motor and exhaust) with just a 3.5 in tip. Listen here
