Terry I bought my Awe touring cat back setup along with my whipple through you guys and you were the best! Looking to quite mine down a bit with the Kooks long tubes and the blower the awe is a little too loud. I saw your post about the Borla 3" resonator but it says 2018 and up, i have a 2015 do you know if its still a direct swap for my H pipe?

The Borla 60661 is a full 3" system with a 3" inlet/ outlet. So if you're running a full 3" setup it should bolt in. My sales guy is running that Borla part number on his 2017 with the AWE Touring. Even have it in stock ready to go!

If you add a resonator Like the Borla 3" Resonator 60661 ( This Resonator contains an internal H-Pipe ) it will help a lot. One of my guys here added this in place of the H-pipe on his AWE Touring exhaust after he installed long tube headers for the same reason. This resonator was a direct swap with the AWE H-pipe, required no modification to his system. I can't say that is the case for every cat back but in his case it was. The other option would be to add some Vibrant resonators and have an exhaust shop weld them in to your H-pipe they offer 3in inlet and out with a 4in body. They offer them 12in long & 18in long.

I went this route too. I have the stainless works catted LTH with the borla res and borla atak system. My car is loud when i punch it but fairly tame cruising.

I'd go back to the stock cat back, and add electronic cut outs before the mufflers for when you want ears bleeding loud.
Unless this thing is blown you don't need 3"pipes on a 5.0
That 2hp at 6800rpm you'll never miss.

The Borla 60661 exhaust tubing diameters are stepped.
Inlet - 2.25”
Perforated core - 2.50”
Outlet - 3.00”
The only 3.00” tubing on the 60661 resonator is the expanded outlet slip connects.

Xforce varex works great. Comes with a keyfob remote to open and close the mufflers. Remember to close them when you get home and when you fire up the next morning it will be quieter than stock. I loved mine on my 2017. But with the recent price increase I can't justify it myself

@GregO, do you have any experience with or opinion on the solo performance Mach-xl 300 mid muffler? It’s a part of this cat back:

No first hand experience.
SOLO does have a great following.
If you’ve gone to long tube headers and dB reduction is your goal dual side x side Stainless Bros. 4” round resonators is a good option.
There’s a reason Ford has chosen to install dual side x side round resonators on both the GT350 & 500……….

I have Solo on my Jeep. I do not have a resonator. It sounds great at less than WOT but at WOT no matter the RPM its very, very loud. I have sound deadening foam in the spare tire bay and its still LOUD. No drone but super loud. Not sure if thats equal for this unit.

Did I mention, its very loud
