They're cat back is literally their axleback with their xpipe attached to it it. Plus $1200.

That is odd why do a full cat back at the stock diameter? Full 3" is what I would have expected for a standard catback. Typically only piece meal axleback or x pipes would maintain that stock diameter normally so surprised at their specs. You boosted guys would benefit from the free flowing more so than NA guys who would just do it for the sound.

I think that if you have a Roush Stage 3, then the standard exhaust is the same as what you would get buying the X pipe and keeping the axle-backs that are on there. The Roush exhaust is loud.

Ummmmmm,............I'm not so sure.
I think the Roush full catback is wider in diameter, plus the X pipe, PLUS, the better quality than the stock exhaust. It's a win-win.
If you're concerned about cost,....I'm not. lol

I don't beleive Diameter is going take much of a difference with stock headers and cats. At least my speedhsop didn't seem to think it mattered when they installed it with the kit. they wanted me to install headers. that was their only real recommendation.

yeah mine is stupid loud. My backfires are obnoxious. My buddy pulled up along side me on his harley so I could take his pic and afterwards I raced off thinking he had a helmet that covers his ears. He cussed me out afterwards. Said his ears and head where still hurting an hour later. lol, harley guy complaining about loud exhausts

It seems removing the res on these Phase 2's really open things up. I backfired into some Karen's open SUV windows last night accidentally going thru a tree tunnel. It's the little things in life.

Can increase volume without drone just gotta be conscious of it when making selections.

I think that if you have a Roush Stage 3, then the standard exhaust is the same as what you would get buying the X pipe and keeping the axle-backs that are on there. The Roush exhaust is loud.
The previous Roush cars had Roush exhausts put on the cars, "POST TITLE". I'm "assuming" that's to avoid EPA or emission criterias.
I was a little disappointed with the exhaust loudness with the 18+ cars, UNLESS you have the active exhaust, which I opted out of. Not worth the price for me.
So, that's an easy fix. Just order up the Roush full catback with x pipe. lol :like: :muscle:

Yeah with the windows up there's going to be some drone on any resonator delete but isn't bad on the xpipe.

Who told you that? Look at your Roush invoice. It's on my invoice and so did all the 18 stage 3's I looked at with or without active

You got it brother!!!!! :like: lol
The Roush full catback is a 3" exhaust. I don't think the stock system is full 3" exhaust? I am be wrong, but I don't think it is.
