Aftermarket 2016 EcoBoost Exhaust?

Greetings,

My wife loves her 2016 ecoboost convertible. First, we know it will never sound like a GT. We don't want/need it to, but it would be nice to have a little more sound.

Is there an aftermarket exhaust for the ecoboost that will give it a little throaty growl? Like a small GT?

Thank you.

We have a nice selection here - I will have to confirm with our purchasing dept. but these should fit the 2016 too, I have not heard other wise:

I am happy to put you in contact with a member of our exhaust team who has more experience with the sound you are looking to achieve with your 2016. I can see if we have any videos of exhausts we have done on the EcoBoost.

You can reach me at tim@steeda.com & I can send your information over to our team for immediate follow-up.

Best Regards,

TJ

I cut off the stock mufflers and installed Magna Flow mufflers and cut out the resonator and replaced with a straight piece of pipe.

A little more sound at idle no louder than stock when cruising and speaks up with a nice note when you get on it. For me as a daily driver it is perfect. Plus it cost me less than $200 to do it. A complete cat back from Magna Flow is about $1000.

FYI ... Convertible systems are slightly different than Fastback systems, so if you go with a complete system make sure it is for a CONV. not FB.

I have never seen an exhaust that was specific to the vert and can't imagine what could possibly be different, they are identical underneath.

IIRC it has to do with how the brackets and hangers have to work around the extra chassis stiffening that the convertables require.
