texaggie Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Ok, so as some of you may already know, I recently traded in my 2008 GT500 for a 2013 GT500. Now the question is which after market exhaust is best? I would like a little better sound (but not crazy loud and no/minimal drone), better looks, and if possible better performance. Which set up do you guys think hits the mark best and why? (I had the Ford racing exhaust on my 2008.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tedj Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Ford racing axle backs for me, sounds good and looks nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freakshow12 Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 I too have the ford racing. It's quite loud but zero drone on the highway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedman Posted September 12, 2013 Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 Like yourself, i had a 2008 GT 500 w/ Ford racing axle backs and they were good. I bought a 2013 GT500 on november of last year and about 4 months ago I decided to buy the Corsa sport axle backs and they in my opinion are lighter, better built than the Ford racing ones which by the way are built by Borla, and sound great w/ no drone.

pgodden Posted September 21, 2013 Report Share Posted September 21, 2013 I think I am missing something, I have a 2014 and never considered swapping out brand new exhaust, is there a reason to swap it out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Audio and visual aesthetics along with a slight jump in power and torque through a more efficient exhaust system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are not missing a thing. People just like to make their cars more their own. Unless you modding the engine there's really no need Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freakshow12 Posted September 21, 2013 Report Share Posted September 21, 2013 Now with winter coming I am planning my engine mods. Funny how you get used to the power and now I need more!.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodders Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 I had to vote for the Borla S-Type since the Borla ATAK was not listed. The ATAK is acoustically designed for this engine and I think better than the S type and louder but not at idel or normal speeds, but does cost more.

SteelSteeds Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 I've noticed that most of the aftermarket exhaust systems for the late model Mustang are very quiet at idle/low RPM, but get loud when you're on it. Personally, I would like a bit more rumble at idle. I don't get enough opportunities to open it up, and would love to hear a bit more attitude when idling or cruising.
