Default Roush Exhaust

How come more people don't use the Roush exhaust system around here? I like the deep sound of Roush Off Road but I don't hear many talking about them. Do they drone or something? I have Shelby GTA's and they're kinda quiet.

Probably because of price. That's my $.02.

I have the "street legal" system on my car and really like the sound. Waiting to include an X pipe at the moment.

It came with mine. Very nice sound, no drone whatsoever. Does pop on deceleration, but I like that!

I had Flowmaster AT axlebacks on my '06 GT, and while those sounded good, these are much better.

It is a crapshoot on exhaust for these cars, everyone wants that big block rumble out of our little 281 CI. So they dick around with different H pipes, X pipes etc.

I have Roush Offroad's, BBK Longtubes and Comp Cams. I think the big thing is the Cam's that will really make the exhaust rumble. Well this is cam dependent since the HotRod cams make it sound like a topfuel dragster if that is the sound you are looking for or go with something like Comp Cams 127300s to sound more like old school muscle.

Heres my Gay *** exhaust video..
