I had looked into this exhaust after seeing some crazy sounding M4s rocking the ArmyTrix exhaust, however, pricing for a catback was 3500 dollars. Not really worth it to me lol.

My John Deere tractor sounds better. That is the worse sounding catback for the 5.0 I have ever heard.

Every time engine revs come down it sounds like wet farts. And the tips are hideous!
Agreed I hate that noise.

I think it is amplified when you have an H pipe.

Personally having the ARH h-pipe cat-back, this system sounds below average. Whats worse is their asking price :headbonk:

I believe they claim +13 horsepower for ours on their site. That, combined with their prices is telling me a sh*t load of hallucinogenics are being ingested by their management.

It is a true cat back system and they do remove the 2" bottle neck on the passenger side.

I made some enquiries today.

Vivid Racing is the North America distributor and offered me sale pricing for the polished tip catback for $2682 shipped.

Agreed, from the video the catback doesn't sound that great. I'd want to hear this in person before dropping that kind of coin.

I think what's key here is the demographic of people that own 2015 Mustangs.

These are $30k cars, not $60k+ BMW M3's, GTR's etc (Platforms in which Armytrix exhausts have a good following).

Finding Mustang owners who have the budget to blow $3000 on a catback is going to be tough. The top players in the current S550 catback market, such as AWE, ARH and Corsa all sit at around $1500 regular retail price. Granted, the Armytrix catback is dual mode and features the valvetronic hardware which puts the hardware costs higher than the non dual-mode competition, but I don't think owners are going to be forking out a $1500 premium for that feature.

This exhaust would have to sound like the voice of the gods in order to justify such a high price, which judging by that video it clearly doesn't.

Still, it's cool to have a player like Armytrix cater to the Mustang platform.

Just my 0.02.
