Best Cat back

[DRHRSH]

Corsa or AWE if you want drone free.

AWE looks sweet but not for convertibles?

Do you currently have active valves? If not then youll be fine, and check Corsa's website.

I do not have factory active valves. But it appears that Corsa does not offer those axle backs for a convertible?

AWE Touring is a great option for the 15-17 cars if you want a little more volume but not a ton (I’d say it’s Stock+ or Stock++ in terms of volume). One of the best sounding exhausts out there in my mind. If you want a little more volume than that, Borla S type is a great option. It’s my favorite for these cars (15-17 and 18-23). Both Borla and AWE build quality is outstanding and neither will drone.

I like the AWE but it doesn’t appear to be available for a convertible?

If cost is a concern, I can recommend the MBRP cat-back. It's what I have on my 2015. The quality is excellent and price is right. However, it is kind of loud.

It would be nice to keep the cost down, the MBRP systems look nice. You say it is kind of loud? Which system do you have, I see they offer ”Race” and “Street”?

Steeda H-pipe was perfect for me. No drone with a little bit more throttle bark.

I see Steeda has lots of H pipe options, which did you get? Others say doing just an H pipe gives you a “tinny”sound?

Thanks! I misunderstood, thought you were talking axle backs.

I have the street version. It's loud but not as loud some other exhausts. I have a friend who had the Roush on his 2015 and it's not as load as his.

If you're looking for an axle back, any of the Borla's would work since the pipe is cut past the bracing.

On their site they only show coupe/fastback. Might be worth asking them if it will work with a vert? My guess is it probably won’t, usually they will specifically state if it fits a vert.

I am the new owner of a 2016 GT Convertible on great condition. Premium edition but stock exhaust. I want a little more sound but no drone on the highway. I have been studying but talk about confusing! Looks like just replacing the “suitcase”with any or H pipe could make a nice change? Prefer not to cut and do an axle back, so I can return to stock if I sell or don’t like it. Thanks for allowing me on this forum.

I went with the NxtStep axle back and it keeps the sound deep. Louder than stock for sure, but it's not obnoxious. It's perfect. Zero rasp. Zero drone. And I have a 2017 Mustang GT convertible. The exhaust actually sounds louder with the top UP than with the top down.

i went with mbrp race cat back h pipe. much louder than stock, however after installing LTH, the car was obnoxiously loud i mean stupid loud!!!!! So i ended up installing stainless works legen series with h pipe with black quad tips. OMG fantastic, agressive yet somwhat quite when you want it to be and mustang throaty loud when you want it to be. i have a non active exhaust system

What is the difference between one for a coupe or convertible?
