getting a new 2013 5.0 help please

Hi

I just have a couple of questions for you. Im about to trade my 2009 bullitt in for a 2013 5.0 . I would like to change the exhaust on the new car. i have kr mufflers on the bullitt and i love them. i was thinking of going with gt500 axelbacks how would the volume of these compare to the setup i have now. i was also thinking of the roush axelback if the gt500 are to quiet. I know exhaust questions are asked all the time, i just have not found exactly what I'm looking for. I would like to get a tune, the car is an auto so I'm having trouble finding a tune for it, has anyone tuned there 2013 auto 5.0? Im really happy to be on the forum lots of great info. I will post pics when i get the car its a sterling grey auto with brembos and recaros it should be great.

I think it would be very close to the sound u are looking for, off topic but would u be willing to switch grills with money on my end?

I had Roush's on my '11 and they were louder than the GT500's and had no drone but had a more raspy sound. The GT500's are mild during idle and cruising with no drone but are deeper and wake up nicely under throttle.
Many are tuning the auto, VMP, Lund, Brenspeed, BBR just to name a few.

I have the Brembo's and Racaro's which the '11 did not. The auto has the select shift and sport mode that the '11 did not have.
I tried many auto tunes on my '11 and my favorite was from VMP. Lund, Amazon and AED are very good also but pricey. No tune yet on the '13.

Im auto with a steeda 93 tune. It turns your car into a beast and is very safe. I have gt500 axle backs without resonators .make sure you get the resonators removed. Awesome sound.

I wanted a steeda tune but they don't have them for 2013. I just emailed American muscle to see if they do tuning, I really would like to get it tuned. How loud are the gt500 axelbacks muck more than stock?

There's tons of YouTube videos. Do a "gt500 no resonators" Search . Not too loud, no drone but the deep mustang growl during acceleration and very nIce idle tone.
