Had to buy a new fridge over the weekend, an unexpected $1500... interfering with mustang plans! 😋

$1.5K refrigerator? Must be those Samsung with the screen showing the interior without having to open the doors :-)

I'm still looking for an axle-back for my 2016 GT, that will be my only mod this spring.
I have heard hundreds of sound clips and I'm down to three choices: Pypes Pypebomb, Mishimoto Race or Roush.
I know the Roush sounds great, but 50% has them and I want to sound different.
Mishimoto Race is insanely loud and I have already installed the Xpipe, so from what I hear on Youtube, I might have problems with the cops within one month after the install, so...
For now, the Pypebomb seems to have the best balance between good sound, affordable price and not being stoopidly loud.
I don't like the Magnaflow sound, so RTR is also disqualified for me.

Are you worried about drone? I hear some people have issues with it around 1800-2200 rpm with the Pypes. They are also pretty loud.
Have you also looked into MBRP, Heartthrob, Bassani and Cooks?

Good point 5.Monster, but I tought that since the Pypes are very cheap, if I can't bare the drone, I will sell those and buy another brand. The Kooks would be my second choice, but they are twice the price of the Pypes.

I am running Kook's cat backs on my 2011. I love the sound, they are deep without being too loud, but they do drone a little between 1850 and 2000 rpms. I just pick a gear to avoid cruising in this range.

That is true, value of the Pypes is very good.
I was able to pick up the GT500 ABs a few year back for $260. Now they are way more expensive. I love the sound, deep throaty and nice burple on engine braking. I just with it was a little louder. I think I may do resonator delete sometime soon.

Too bad they don't make these for the 2011+ cars, they are perfect IMHO

I have a set of GT500's too and they sound great, but we're not loud enough for me with stock exhaust. When I do headers and x-pipe I might revert back to the gt500's though as I'll be illegal at most local tracks otherwise.

Received an email from Track Guys this afternoon. They are doing the Sebring Sensation event again over Memorial Day weekend with Steeda. It is a haul down to Sebring, but I had such a good time last year I plan to make the trip again this year.
