Yeah I know thats what I am going with first. If I want something louder I will go with an X-Pipe or H-Pipe.I have the Roush axle backs with stock resonator and I feel the sound is perfect. Noticeably louder than stock but not obnoxious. I spent a LOT of time researching before doing this a couple of years ago and I'm totally happy with it.
I ran this combo about a year ago. Now im at roush ab, h pipe, & catless sw headers lol. I did feel like it was to quiet but thats just my preference. I think the roush ab and h pipe is perfect tho. It is loud at WOT but very tamable around town.Anyone running this combo? Do you feel its too quite or just right?
I heard on in person and I thought it sounded rather subdued.
Just wondering how loud a Roush AB with X-Pipe really is.
Don't want to piss off the wife with a super loud exhaust. ;)
Don't care about the neighbors. :lol: :lol: :lol:
Compared roush lt o/r hpipe res delete to borla atax lt o/r res delete and roush was louderRoush AB with either an X-pipe or H-pipe is often regarded as one of the loudest setups you can have, probably right behind the Corsa Extreme and Borla ATAK. I have this setup and puts a smile on my face when I go above 2k rpms and it's also quiet when it's in six gear as if it's a stock muffler.
I wonder what it would sound like if you also throw in headers ;)
Definitely sounds better with the stock resonator!!!MF TruX and Mishimoto race Axle. I think I like the stock resonator sound better.
That resonated X-pipe takes some time to break in. Mine took about 200-250 miles to liven up and produce a deeper, crisper sound, along with getting louder.Definitely sounds better with the stock resonator!!!
I think a lot of the issue is the cars are too well insulated from their own exhaust noise.
When its fun-loud in the cabin, its obnoxiously loud to bystanders.
This is also why manufacturers are using "sound-tubes".
Smart man. I started with the Roush and h pipe. Back to stock resonator. Until she gets her car, save your money.Going to start saving to buy the Roush Axle-backs, going with the stock resonator
first and see how the wife likes it. Unfortunately I have two other passengers that ride in the Stang, my wife and my stepson. Until I get my wife's car next year.
Figured I could go this route and after she gets her car add an x-pipe.
