It's an awesome sounding system!! I have recommended it to several and had some sound clips posted. i believe I was one of the first on the forum to get it and i hope all that have purchased it are as happy with it as I am. It's a bit confusng because it reads like it's axlebacks when in fact it's from the cats all the way out to nice 4" tips. Has resonators built in right after the connection to factory cats and then basically straight pipe the rest of the way out....

Oh really? I kind of thought it was a cat-back system from a few descriptions I had read and from the pictures they posted of it. I'm happy to have this finally clarified! Wilkinda, where did you order your setup from, if you dont mind my asking?

It's from the H-pipe back actually; the cats are in between the exhaust manifolds and the H-pipe.

Also if you plan on doing the install yourself be sure to either have a lift or some very tall jack stands. While I was able to remove the old exhaust with the help of some friends, trying to get the Roush mid pipes on was a no go with about 18" of lift. The Roush pipes are larger than the factory ones by a bit and if we had an inch or two more we could have done it. It was interesting driving it over to the shop about 2 miles from my house to get the mid pipes put on with an open exhaust after the H-pipe

As for the Roush exhausts sound, it's loud, really loud! Which is expected since it deletes the mufflers and there is the slightest drone around 1800 to 2000 RPM, but it's not so bad that you have to yell to your passenger.

Overall it's the exact sound I was looking for and at WOT it's pure bliss

Oh yeah installing will not be an issue. I will use the lift i use everyday at work. Thanks for the heads up though its def good to know for those that are doing it on the ground. I cant wait for mine to get here. I just called american muscle who i ordered it from and they said they dont stock them so it will be shipped from roush so now im hoping i get it by friday. If it was coming from american muscle then i would have it tomorrow.

I got mine from Stang Mods and it also shipped directly from Roush. I ordered mine on a Tuesday and had it the following Tuesday. It takes about 2 days for the order to be shipped after payment clears, so hopefully the holiday didn't hurt your chances of getting it by Friday.
