This is probably the best video to date of the Roush exhaust I've found.

If you're concerned about attracting unwanted attention, then your best bet is the GT500. On the other hand, I love my Roush exhaust with FRPP XPipe. XPipe gets ride of the rasp and obnoxiousness and gives it a great deep mellow tone.

If your gonna keep the stock mid-pipe and the resonators I think the ROUSH's are a pretty decent system (MUST get the Square tips though lol

GT500's, JBA 3" H-Pipe, No resonators

But I chose the GT500's and JBA H-Pipe NO resonators and LOVE IT!
I listened to all the youtube videos and none gave a "True to life" sound, so I did my own and I think it is the best example of the sound:

Stock everything except GT500's
GT Exhaust #1 (GT500 axle Back with Stock H-Pipe & resonators) - YouTube

GT500's, JBA 3" H-Pipe, No resonators
GT Exhaust video 2 (GT500, JBA H-Pipe NO resonators) - YouTube

---------------------
Looks good, sounds good!

Dude, your car is looking sexy as h*ll man! I remember you and I got our cars roughly the same time. Very nice tasteful upgrades. Your vids above are great, although to be honest I don't hear much aural difference between the 2 setups? Maybe more so at wide open throttle? I love the gt500s sound obviously, but wondering what difference the other two mods add?

I voted GT500 even though I have the Roush system. Heard the GT500's and they sound great. Not very loud and no drone. My Roush's that I bought last year are starting to rust.

You know, you're not the first rough a/b owner to have that problem. Am sorry to hear
