Our final prototype does not include a resonator, only two mufflers at the rear of the exhaust.

The resonator is not the only contributor to exhaust volume. We will have a video depicting both the tone and volume produced by our prototype. This should help you decide if this is the exhaust setup for your EBM.

Thanks

Might offer a mid-muffler custom option for those wanting factory sound levels.

Unrestricted flow is VERY hard to silence. You are moving a massive amount of air through an machine, making it explode, then shoving the combusted air through a pipe to the rear of the vehicle. The factory setup gets this done by using very restrictive mufflers and baffling, which impedes the flow after a certain amount, which they don't care as much about as meeting federal noise standards.

Thanks for the input BigSpoon! If you look back a few pages, we did test this setup with a mid-muffler in place. We found the setup to be far too quiet, it was essentially as loud as the stock system. We do not want a loud exhaust system, but we do want it slightly louder than stock at WOT, which brought us to our current iteration. If reception of our final prototype video is not what some customers want, we can certainly consider an option with additional sound baffling.

Enhance Your EcoBoost Exhaust! Cat-Back Development, Part 5: Sound Testing


With just a couple small tasks to go, we’re near the completion of this 2015 Mustang cat-back exhaust project. Our design for this system is complete from the downpipe connection to the end of the stainless exhaust tips.

3D Models

Our prototype exhaust meets our requirements for both fitment and performance, so it was time to create a 3D-model of our design, which would ensure that our manufactured exhausts match our design exactly. After some time at the computer screen working in Solidworks, we ended up with the awesome renderings below!

And one last shot showing the view you will see from the rear of the vehicle. Pretty slick!

Exhaust Sound Testing

Now the important part … how does it sound? Our talented video team put together a neat compilation of footage showing this setup in action. Check it out below!

Louder than stock, but not overly loud or annoying by any stretch of the imagination. The lack of resonator or midmuffler allows for a nice crackle during high-rpm shifts, which is quite a nice sound to hear.

On the highway and during normal driving, some might think the system was factory installed, I have heard numerous stock vehicles with louder exhaust volume.

In short, we are pleased with how this setup turned out!

Coming Up!

As with most of our newly developed EcoBoost products, we will be launching a discounted pre-sale for those interested in picking up our new cat-back exhaust. Check back soon for details regarding pricing and shipping for our introductory offer!

Thanks for following our progress!

John,

Thanks for the video, tone seems very similar to the MF competition I have, specially under heavier throttle... But it seems overall a bit more quiet. I like it.

Well done. Seems to really minimize some of the tinny high pitched sounds. Now the important questions... When will it be ready? & How much? Well done for sure!

Sounds pretty good, any idea if you will be releasing a video with the downpipe as well?
