Ford Racing touring vs Borla S-Type

[Screwdgie]

So I've been through a few different exhaust setups.

First was Roush axle back. Not bad, but wanted a hair louder.

Roush axle back with x-pipe. A bit too harsh of a tone and too loud to daily drive, and if I wanted to add headers, it would be too much for me.

Ford racing touring axle back with x-pipe. Much better, but I'm starting to look for something else. From the limited sound clips I've found of the FRPP touring with headers, they don't sound all that great to me, a bit too tinny.

So I am looking for an axle back to swap out the FRPP touring with. Looking at the Borla S-Type. All the videos I've found, they sound great with an x-pipe and also with headers too. They also sound much deeper than my touring setup.

Has anyone had a chance to hear the two in person to compare? Youtube videos don't do much justice. I am looking to keep the x pipe and replace the axle back with something that will be much deeper and smoother while also sounding great if/when I decide to add long tubes.

Most people use S-type with LT headers as a set up, because loud exhaust become way too lout once you get rid of the cats. There are several set ups out there, my suggestion is go to car meets with s550 models you will get to hear every single exhaust out there. Me personally I went solo and never regret the choice, I went to several exhaust systems myself until I got my current set up. https://www.instagram.com/noob_saibot_s550/ check out my cold start/rev vid.

I've yet to hear the FRPP Touring in person, but the S-type catback I have and have driven it. It's very deep and louder than I think the FRPP Touring is. Very high quality sound. It's a bit too loud for me, and I actually like a little more rasp.

Keep me in mind if you decide to sell your FRPP axle-backs. Depending on the price I might bite instead of the custom job I'm looking at trying.

I'll definitely let you know if I decide to part with the touring. I'd much prefer to sell locally.

After 3 different exhaust setups, wheels, springs, tune and other odds and ends, I told myself I was done this yr. We all know how that goes...lol

Lol I know how that goes. Let me know if you are ever nearby or want to meet up. I'd love to hear your current catback setup in person.
