I just received my Roush axle back order from Blue Oval Industries last night. I got them for $387.95 including shipping.
AM has them for $499.99 right now. Though I have seen them for less in the past.

Any issues with drone at all? How would you guys compare them to the S-types? And lastly, where do you recommend to buy the Roush axle backs for cheap?

I completely disagree with this statement. The roush's sound badass but the Borla S-Types are far from quiet... I'm almost positive that they were one of the loudest db ratings I read about at WOT, although I can't find the link now. I don't own them, but IMO the s-types have about as authentic a muscle car sound as can be had on the new 5.0. To me, the roush has a more exotic sound (like the ATAK) If I were on a budget, the roush's would be a no-brainer. But the S-type is far from "mild". I'd bet $$ it's louder than the roush. And IMHO, is a far superior exhaust to the roush ABs... Peace

I've definitely seen them for less from AM. But not currently the case.
I installed the Roush AB's last night in my garage and all I can say is WOW! I am loving the growl! A little loud at 6 a.m. this morning for my neighborhood but once the rpm's dropped it was fine.

Salesman at my dealer also has a boss. I dropped my car off to have it tinted, and he heard the roush exhaust and open side pipes. He ordered the roush exhaust a couple hours later lol
