    Tough to really draw conclusions based on online videos but that sounds like the stock exhaust times 120%.

    Any droning?

    I like it, it sounds quite a bit meaner!

    Sounds pretty good stock, if you ask me. I wasn't looking to change the exterior sound much on my 2011 V6, so I changed the intake instead. It made a world of difference inside the car, but wasn't really noticeable outside. Have you guys considered a CAI?

    I wish the samples has some time with the revs about a steady 2k for a few seconds. That would be more like what you would hear, as opposed to a few quick revs.

    Nice edge to the new one, let us know if it wears on you.

    I agree with explorerx4. I think a video or a brief description of what it sounds like on the highway or at a constant RPM is in order. It does sound pretty good, although it's a bunch of money to merely make it sound better and lose 30lbs (which I'm guessing will go unnoticed).

    Any issues with drone at cruising speeds?

    The new exhaust sounds more "brappy" from the outside (not a fan), but more throaty from the inside (am a fan).

    That's what I noticed from the video. Outside not an especially good sound, but inside sounded fine. But after 2 hours on the road, that's another thing....

    I actually think the amount of noise increases to a very appropriate level, but the quality of the noise decreases significantly with the aftermarket system. Of course that's listening through headphones and who knows what sort of equalization the recording device and my playback device are doing...so I'd have to hear it with my own ears to make a decision.

    I replaced my stock exhaust with the Ford Racing X-pipe and Touring axle backs. Love it! No Drone and plenty loud when you get on it.
