Roush Exhaust !!!!!!

[jacksontj]

i had the Roush axle backs installed last week and i definitely notice the drone you guys have been mentioning on the highway but it really doesn't bother me yet. i love the sound personally but one of my buddies said he thinks my car sounds like a ricer...to each his own...

I have also noticed that the drone is getting quieter as the car is wearing in. The first few dozen miles were absolutely terrible! Now its better but still a definite drone going on

I have been emailing back and forth with Roush, but they refuse to admit that there is any dron (which is odd because I drive it every day...). They say that since they have no reports they will do nothing, so I ask that if you have this kit installed and have drone please contact Roush (email or live chat: http://www.roushperformance.com/) to let them know that their kit drones on a v6.

I will be happy to write. Do you know who the contact is? I would really like to put it to their attention. Currently i have put 1,500 miles on the exhaust. The drone has quited down some. But, you still cannot hold a converstation with the Sync. The other person in the call always jokes about the Blender sound.

Their email is [email protected]. I'm to the point of switching to a different set of cans personally. I can't keep showing up places with a ringing in my ear and no hearing in low registers ;)

Just sent them a mail.

To answer you question several postback. The Roush exhaust is a option depending on what packaged model Roush you choose. RS=V6, RS1=Ecoboost 4,RS=V8, RS3=V8 Supercharged. Mine had the standard mustang exhaust and I had to purchase and get the upgraded exhaust installed.

I also believe there is a Rep from Roush I have seen post on the Forum before.

Well, I got my reply from a Fellow named Steve. Looks like they are denial from the Drone. Here is the answer. "Our exhaust is a performance kit, of which the noise level will high. Our engineering and technical departments have tested and there are no known drone issues."

This 2nd answer I really enjoyed. Kind of makes your Blood Boil after spending $600 on a axel-back system. "If you are seeking to reduce the sound, please inquire with your local exhaust shop to see if they have any alternatives."

Yea... I think I got the same copy paste answer... :( I'm very dissapointed in roush, definetly would not buy again.

They specifically advertise the product without drone. Sorry that you guys have that problem... sucks because this was the product I was most interested in.

Yea, false advertising... Maybe there is no drone on the i4
