How much its cost?? So it's no conflict to my borla mufflers?? Cause i dont wanna change to cat-back or alex-back.. Just wanna change the mufflers.
Is that true the mufflers are different to resonators?

I bought the Ford GT500 mufflers, and left all else alone, made a night and day difference, in sound, no obnoxious sounds to wake the neighborhood, no drone, and 4 inch tips, improve the appearance out back.

Even with shipping costs, still got them cheaper than anyone else.

Best bang for your buck is Gt500s with resonators deleted and runs a close second to the Borlas.

The above posts are gospel. Take it from me, a guy who had gt500s installed for a year or so...I thought they were the best. That is, until I heard Borla S types in person. It was game over.

Borla S Type hands down...videos are not representative of how good they sound. But here is my stab at it. These are of my car.

They're very raspy. What tone are you looking for? Raspy or deep? If you want raspy, I'd get roush over ATAKs. Much cheaper. I've had both and like I said, qaI love love love my s-types. Steeda Stingers are the same thing, just rebranded if I'm not mistaken.

That's hard to say lol, people love to be raspy during driving in the street and love to be deep while in high way.

Lol

I have everything aside from the muffler stock. How does removing resonator/cats change the sound?

Did the new h pipe really change the sound at all? I can see the benefit from piping that doesn't crimp down, and your video was what sealed my fate before the car was even delivered.

I promised my fiancée I'd at least keep the stock mid pipes till next spring, so I'm still on the stock h-pipe, till then.

I agree with the numerous people that recommend the gt500 axel backs. No drone and a great sound when you put your foot down. It is very comfortable during regular driving.

I'm trying to pick up a set of GT500 axle backs. Mine is a tad too loud for me at the moment. No drone, just LOUD...never thought I'd want quieter lol.

I love my Corsa Extreme axleback. Perfect at cruise but gets nice and aggressive at WOT.

I have Dynomax VTs and they are alittle louder than a friends GT500. Low deep rumble, stright thru and no drone at all plus I can still hear the radio when cruising.
