If you search "GT500" on this forum you will find several that have used just the GT500 muffs with stock H pipe. It is louder but not much. Definitely more volume and you can always cut the stock H-pipe later. It's a great upgrade.
Literally went through every single forum that has the tag GT500 and muffler. Could not find a video. I want that real deep tone but don't want the tinny noise that I have seen from the videos with the h pipe.

I think the tinny sound came from those using either H-Pipes with stock mufflers and those who used x-pipes with GT500 mufflers (rasp).

I added GT500 mufflers and did a resonator delete and just had the shop fab an H-Pipe; no tinny sound whatsoever. I might play around with it and switch it out with an X Pipe just to see how I like that for a while.

It is so tough to judge the videos because of mic recording and playback audio when playing the video. I love mine and it's not tinny at all. Deep bass tone and significantly louder. I did hear another 15' mustang GT with stock Hpipe and the outlaws and it sounded awesome. Super deep and louder than stock but not as loud as mine (GT500 muffs with hi flow aftermarket Hpipe. I would suggest adding just the muffs for now then changing the Oem Hpipe if not enough. It's the only way to ensure what you want.

Stock Hpipe GT500 muffs would be a 2 to the stock muffs being 1. With hi flow aftermarket Hpipe would be 3.5. Add the aftermarket X-pipe but change the tone to hair higher and a 4.

Excellent! Update the thread with pics at least when done.
Cheers!
Would you still take your car on a long trip with the H pipe?

Absolutely. It only has the volume when on acceleration. That's the beauty of the GT500 muffs. They are chambered and tuned to the motor. NO drone in the car when cruising at low rpm so you hear the rumble but not loud unless on the throttle moderate/hard.

The answer I'm looking for. H-Pipe is the way too go!

2016 Mustang GT convertible exhaust video finally

Video doesn't do it justice. Sounds awesome in and out the car with awesome low end and NO DRONE. Had the X-pipe first and the tone was too high pitched but had a SMOOTH sound. The H pipe has a lower bass tone and feels like more torque. I did hear the OUTLAW catback on the STOCK H-pipe and it sounds awesome too, just not as loud. This has way more volume and more of a classic muscle car sound.

Thanks for the video, luckily you also have the convertible. Will go with the H pipe drive it around for a bit worst case I just put the factory resonator back on.

Went to two muffler shops today, both saying around 3-4 hours of labour? Does that sound right? One was concerned about how the muffler fits on the left hand side because of the brace. Any tips?

That's about right on time but more like 2 hours based on my experience. They may be saying that to cushion the time in case harder than expected. Brace is no issue.
