Quad tip options on my '17 GT PP

[stangrob]

Hello gents!

Once the weather warms up here in Jersey I plan on treating my GT to a new exhaust system. After seeing how cool the quad setup looks on the '18 I plan on going the same route, using the Roush rear valance to get the job done.

I've looked at the exhaust options out there that support this on the 15-17 S550 and narrowed down my choices to either the Corsa sport quad or the Magnaflow system that CJ Pony Parts has. Both sound great, and each has its own advantages. Has anyone installed one of these quad tip setups on their GT, and if so do you have any thoughts or suggestions?

Thanks!

Sub'd.

I'm in the same boat, although I'm looking at the 350 rear end. Just a full cat-back Ford Performance by Borla is $$$

Subd waiting on true quad options for 2018.
So far what I’ve found;
-Corsa catback with “quad” tip (really just duals with quad tips)
-Rousch quad Axle-back

In the middle of the roush active quad tip, I have to say it's kinda a pita, be careful when cutting the bumper cover, I had the reverse sensors and I cut around them using the template and in one spot I cut too high because the air saw is hard to turn and I didn't take off the reverse sensor mounts which I should have,, one of those things that made sense after I did it ... This left the tiniest hole almost microscopic on my drivers side corner where the valence meets the bumper cover , you would never see it if I didn't show you see so I guess no harm but kinda upset at myself, anyways follow the template exact

There was a post on one of the fb groups where a guy bought the 18’ active mufflers and installed them on a 15-17’. He was even able to get the switch hooked up. The best part is that the mufflers retail for less than $500.

AWE is suppose to be working on a Quad tip exhaust. I assume it will be profiled off the Gt350 valance. And of course Ford Racing does the sport and touring quad tip systems.

Good stuff guys - thanks! The Corsa Sport sounds great but I wasn’t sure how the dual tips themselves look in the valance. I’m concerned that if you get close they won’t look right. The MF setup looks awesome but I read some feedback that they need “adjustments” to fit properly. Not sure how accurate that is though.

Using the ‘18 active mufflers is an interesting idea too, especially if the price is right. If Ford offered them as an axle-back setup that would be very cool.

Everything I’ve read indicates changing the rear valance is non-trivial but definitely seems worth the effort. I don’t have to deal with the reverse sensors so I don’t have to worry about that. In any case I know I’ll be planning a full weekend for the exhaust and valance upgrade. Sheesh, thinking about it I’ll probably do my shifter upgrade then too since I understand that the exhaust gets in the way ;).

No adjustments at all for mine to fit.

Still hoping someone does a conversion for the 15-17's to use the 18 quad setup. I really don't want to get another exhaust for quads..love my corsa

 

[Kinjirra]

Shell out for 2018 car. They come with an exhaust that is mapped like a throttle. Whatever you do to an old s550 is just stone age, aint that the truth

For 20k more then what I paid for mine with the same options...no thanks

 

[stangrob]

Anywho... appreciate the ideas. If anyone else has any experience with the various quad exhaust options for the ‘15 thru ‘17 GTs please chime in - thanks!
