Roush has a mean but subtle idle yea sounds just like my friends 5.0 at IDLE.

I answered that question a couple posts back

Is there a reason why the Ford gt500 exhaust is under 300? Is it good/would it sounds good on a v6 once it is properly welded?

It's because they are essentially a stock part. It sounds good on a v6 but quieter than all of the aftermarket ones.

Do you like your force 2? Having such a hard time deciding on an exhaust. I like the idle of the Roush, but it's too loud at higher RPM.

I like them to be honest. I was on the same boat as you. I wanted the roush because of the idle but like you mention there very loud on higher rpm. But in the future I getting high flow cats and x pipe so I bet the flows will Get louder.

Sold my roush mufflers as well and plan on getting the Flowmasters. The roush mufflers have a great sound and are loud... But there's that occasional high pitched shrill that makes them not worth it in the long run. The fun factor of the roush mufflers doesn't last very long when your car is a DD IMO.

However, The guy who bought them from me loves them! I was happy too!! i tripled my money.

Really? Meh, to each his own. I like them a lot. They got some beef to them, but aren't as loud as the Roush

The sound is great. I just don't like their tips.

I like my Roush. I had second thoughts when I first installed them inasmuch as they were so much louder than the stock mufflers. But you know, it's kinda like living near a railroad crossing; after a while, the "noise" just becomes a part of your environment. YMMV; my driving style really doesn't exploit the potential of the machine.

My Bassani axle backs should show up tomorrow. I have read great things about them, so took the plunge. Hopefully I am not disappointed.

Btw, I have the same CAI as pictured above. No tune yet. Was told by my local speed shop it really isn't needed.

Another route for a little more $$$ are the FRPP axlebacks, sound great and deep at idle and great when accelerating also. Consensus is that they have a good overall tone and volume level. I own them and to really up the sexiness of your car, they do it. With the CAI you'll notice a slight difference and it makes a cool sound sure, however a 93 hybrid tune will make you cream your jeans the first time you use it.

I do really like the Ford racing exhaust but ~$700 is too much for me. I'd be comfortable around $450

I was looking to spend that much, was looking at the bassani's for about $500 or so but I was convinced otherwise and trust me it's worth it. But hey whatever you get I would love to hear them.

I just thought of something: Does anyone besides me hear anything in the Roush exhaust that reminds them of the sound of a WW II fighter plane... like the original Mustang (P-51), say?
