2011 mustang gt Which axleback exhaust to get?

So next week I will be purchasing a new axleback for my 2011 mustang gt. But I still haven't made up my mind of getting flowmasters hushpower or the gt500. I'm looking for a deeper sound but not to loud. What should I get???

I would say GT500, the hushpower will be deeper but they will drone a little, like the Bassani...

The Steeda axle backs sounds great, a mix between the FRPP sport and Bassani.

I went from a 2001 with Mac Pro Chamber O/R with SLP Loudmouth #1 to a 2012 with GT500 and cutout resonators. It isn't as loud, but it sounds great at wot, mild around town. I think i'm done with the exhaust, I will never go back to an O/R pipe again.

I paid a "mom & pop" muffler shop $50 to cut them out. I could't tell you how much louder, as I only drove 2 miles with the GT500's to the shop.

Love my GT500's. Definitely remove the resonators or buy some open over the axle pipes.

Anytime I think I want louder exhaust I just have someone else drive my car and stand there and listen and it changes my mind. They are loud enough for people to hear my car but not loud enough to gather the wrong kind of attention. My neighbors compliment the sound but don't complain. That's a win!

Very minimal drone on this exhaust. It tends to be a little higher around the 2000RPM range, but once you pass that range then it is very minimal.

Thanks

I have been through a pile of systems, GT500, MAC, Roush, Dynomax.....and now I am back to GT500s. I ordered another set today. They really are perfect.
