Congrats!! I'm here in Charlotte too and just bought a '14 DIB w/TP too...LOVE IT!! The color is spectacular!! I'm going with the Roush Exhaust myself. I think it's the best sounding exhaust by far!!

The holes in the trunk lid for the spoiler... Notice the OP had 6 questions, to which I gave 6 answers. I think you have been working too hard Mark.

That's awesome. Congrats on your purchase! What a great car these are! I'm so torn between the Roush or GT500's.

Congrats. Choosing an exhaust is such a tough decision. I was torn between Roush, Borla and GT500's. Went with the Roush. No drone and sounds very nice at idle. Quiet at cruising speeds and loud when getting on it. Very loud on a cold start, louder when very cold out. They are raspy. The popping and crackling

She's a beaut! Very nice! I'm also from the Charlotte area! I work around Lake Norman and live in Lincolnton. Does anyone have any meets around here? I'm only 4 months new into having my mustang and love it!
Choosing an exhaust was easy for me... Borla all the way! I went S-Type catback. The only decision for me that was hard was whether I wanted to go S-Type or ATAK. They are pricey, but def worth it! All stainless and million mile warranty.
Anyway, glad to see another Coyote owner!

Nice to meet a reasonably local Mustang owner. As far as events, I just found out about and registered for this one:

Looks like we basically have the same car. I've already added the Boss side exhaust and tomorrow I am adding the quad tip GT500 axle-backs.

I only run 93 in my car. My Track Key tune should be here around May 2nd. Can't wait to hear the lopey idle with the Boss side exhaust with GT500 axle-backs.

Like you I am adding stripes and since I like to be different... I'm going with the following color combo:

That will look sharp! With that Boss exhaust, are you basically running an exhaust with 4 outlets; 2 rear and 2 on the side?

Yup, the extra pipes give such a great sound. Kudos to the engineers that designed this system. The lopey idle with the Trackey is money.
