The SW makes the car sound like a RX8 with exhaust. I'm surprised that everyone likes it as much as they do, but that's just my opinion. Remember too that they use chambered mufflers which don't perform as well as straight-through designs like the Magnaflow, MAP, Borla, MRT, etc.

It sounds aggressive......but it does have a raspy quality to it. I have not heard any exhaust that I think really makes the car sound good. However, I don't think you are going to get a particularly good tone from this car no matter what.

I haven't paid much attention to the Mustang AFRs while stock, but the Fusion would hover around 10.3-10.4 under WOT conditions. The tips look like diesel tips too.

This; a 4 cyl is never going to sound as good as a V8.

That's true. I'm not trying to achieve a V8 sound with mine, but it is possible to get a good, deep bassy sound from it with the proper setup. I recently heard a MF in person and it sounds great for an I4.

I always liked the sounds that the SRT4 produced. [emoji3]

I was always too far in front of the SRT-4's to hear them, lol!
Ummm, I just heard my buddies idling in his driveway, lol. In all seriousness though, they've always been one of the best sounding 4 cylinders, in my opinion, and I'd be happy if mine sounded remotely close to that. [emoji1]
