Deep/Aggressive/Loud '12 V6 Exhaust?
Just got my 2012 V6 Mustang a week ago and I started looking into exhausts. I started with the Borla ATAK axle back but then read some reviews that it wasn't very deep. Currently I am looking at the Roush Axle Back and it sounds pretty good from the sound clips I have seen and it is significantly cheaper than the Borla also. Can anyone tell me if the Roush exhaust will be any good for a deep, aggressive, and loud sound? Or what else would be any good?

Everyone has a different idea about exhaust sound, you just have to find the one you like.
Just remember, no V6 exhaust will ever give you a V8 sound.
I like the Roush but it is very loud.

I also have a 2012 V6 with PP. Does anyone know which exhaust comes the closest to the nice deep sound of a v8, without that interior drone or raspy note that some have? Also, what does it cost to add a supercharger and what increase in horsepower can be expected?

From all the threads I have read and the responses to this thread, it looks like the Roush axle back might be the closest V8 sounding exhaust. For the superchargers- from what I have seen for 2011-2012 V6 Mustangs, your looking in the $5000-$7000 range with a pretty big horsepower gain.

Borla ATAK is definitely a good way to go. If you want the best sound combined with a headache free cruise (the ROUSH exhaust has deadly droning...), then it's worth the extra few bucks for the ATAK system.
I ran Borla ATAK Axel-backs for roughly a year, and they were absolutely amazing. Within the last week, I had BBK LT Headers and the Hi Flow Catted x pipe installed. It's crazy now. But for someone who wants a sick exhaust for their car, the ATAK more than does the job.
