The GT500's do not have resonators and there is no drone in those, why would the GT have drone with same mufflers, or at the very least what makes it so hard to believe?

I came from a world of cars that as soon as you lost the resonators the car became un drivable the drone was so bad. Then why did ford even bother to have them in the first place?

Edit: After looking at the OP's mods list, removing the resonators with catless long tubes and Roush AB's will increase the drone you already have.

The stock H pipe is very restrictive and introduced a pop in the exhaust note. The resonators just attenuated the pop. Replace the stock H pipe with a 3" H or X pipe depending on the sound you want and that pop is gone and it really improves the exhaust sound! And there is no drone at all with the GT500 mufflers.

This is very true, and the muffler was mounted mid cabin.

i'm on my second axle back set-up now with my resonators removed. first i had the gt500's and there was no drone at all like others have mentioned. i swapped acle backs with a friend who wasnt a fan of his pypes pype bombs after removing his cats(rode in the car while it still had cats and resonators) and i will say that removing the resonators made them pick up quite a bit of drone. i'm not sure how it will affect your roush a/b's but be aware that you may pick up some drone
