You can have my GT take-offs if interested. They are brand new... No miles on them. Just pay shipping. PM me if interested...though it may not be worth it as they are quite heavy...

I still say Borla Touring or S Type, but they are 600 a set but do have a 1,000,000 mile warranty. You really do get what you pay for.

8 months ago I would agree with that statement. But alas, I must disagree . You don't get what you pay for. Don't need to get into details but just search for me and borla if you want to know

I know you had a bad time with fitment Burton but not everyone has. my vote is for Borla S-Types which I have or GT500s. If you go the Roush route I think you would have to add shorty headers to help make it sound throatier/great. They sound good just not great imo. Here is a clip of mines. Mind you I have pretty much a full exhaust except I keep the stock cats/resonators but most of the sound is from the S-types.

AJ, yeah I didn't have the best of experiences . Fitment issues were secondary, quality (rust through) was first. Couple other folks I know also got rust through and fitment issues. Rare, but still... Hopefully no more issues in the future for who gets it. I loved them for when they were on my car.

Yea that's right almost forgot you had the rust issues too but there is always the warranty which I have used and great customer service. I do love the tips of the Corsa you have just not the tone so much. I like a deep throaty tone and the Corsa seem more high pitched. Not bad just not my taste. I would be interested in knowing how they sound on the 3.7. I gotta say, shorty headers make just about any exhaust on the six sound better (deeper).

Would it void any of the warranty? Does anyone know where to order a pair that will work on the 2014? I can't seem to find any for our year. Thanks for any help!
Think I’d go with the Shelby/Borla mufflers that are standard on the GTS V6 Shelby. I wouldn't be at all surprised if they are made special just for Shelby. They have a really nice sounding exhaust note, but that's just my opinion as a former V6 owner.

Yes at least their customer service was great throughout the whole process.

the mufflers differ between the at and mt? why?

Because? I don't know, ask Ford. It's been that way since 2011. Actually, the 05-09 GTs had different mufflers for auto and manual too. Most likely different tuning internally to tune drone out at different rpm levels. Also, the MT tips are 3.5" slash cut and the AT tips are 3" slash with an extra baffle inside the tip (you can see the pipe inside).
