2018 Exhaust

[marks]

Heard a 2018 GT go past, sounded great. Asked the guy further down the road which mode he had it in, Track apparently.

Can anyone tell me what exhaust system for '15 versions, best matches the Track mode in '18? Can I replicate a similar noise without going x/h pipe as concerned it will then be too loud

Think you need the x/h pipe

I have a borla s type car back it's pricey but it's loud when you want it to be and sensible when you don't

Yes ive been looking at the s type or the touring. Just don't want it to sound too loud and chavvy when pottering about, only want it to sing on acceleration. Does the s type fulfill this?

Anyone got any suggestions of exhaust without changing to x/h pipe?

It does for.me mine is a daily and I didn't want asbo all the time lol

Or you can buy an active exhaust for the 2015 model hair pricey as shit

Roush axel back is plenty boisterous for me (and my neighbours!)

It would have to be cat back for me

Go with a cat back system. The original exhaust is very restrictive and very heavy.
I did my own exhaust so I know how heavy it is. The original exhaust had the suitcase style resonator.
My advise is get the Borla S-Type. Loud only when on wide open throttle.
The weight saving is a bonus and the exhaust is way better made than the standard exhaust.

My axle back S type is fine and loud when on it. Not too loud other times and never any rasp or drone. Lovely crackles and pops on down shifts too

I’ve got the Borla Active Exhaust on my GT and it sounds epic. You get the noise when you want it and can turn it to marginally louder than stock at the press of a button.

Quality of the parts is top notch as you’d expect with genuine Ford parts.

This is the link to the kit I’ve purchased

I tried to do a quick video clip to show the different modes, not the best but you get the idea.

Sounds great on loud setting but want to keep it simple ie not active exhaust

Thanks all.
Anyone tried the Milteck exhaust? Wonder how it compares to Borla S type?

The guy that owns Milltek posted a clip on here when they'd got theirs up and running. It sounds utterly pish IMO. Proper raspy fart of a noise. Borla way better.

Agree with that...for my daily driver I wouldn’t want much louder. Is quiet enough on a cruise but sounds ace when pushed. More of a deep burble than a raspy tone. Extremely loud on cold starts though

Here's the Milltek thread - https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/threads/milltek-x-pipe-cat-back-exhaust.44711/
I wouldn't offer an opinion as exhaust notes are a personal taste but I can honestly say i've never been tempted to change (thankfully, as going by FB groups some people seem impossible to please ).
