Default 5.0 Exhaust Thread

Just wanted to start a thread where people can post their experiences with aftermarket exhaust options for the 5.0.
I am currently torn between the Roush and the Borla. But thought it would be fun to hear some other opinions.

I like the idea of this, I'm getting my 5.0 in next week and I'm definitely looking into after market exhaust options already.

Personally after hearing the different options, I personally like the S-type Borlas the best for sound quality, but the price is significantly more than the Roush exhaust.

Not sure what to do :\

I'm in the exact same boat. LOVE the sound of the S-Types but not sure can I justify $700+ for a catback system that I have not heard in person. I'm really interested in hearing the Roush in person too especially since it's half the price of the Borla. The sound clip on their site is not great quality.

Has no one put an exhaust on their 2011 yet? I suppose it could be because there is currently very little on offer....

I heard the Steeda (Borla) axle back on their owner's car; it sounds amazing. Deep, throaty, no rasp..to me well worth the $$.

Yeah, if I could just hear that side by side with the roush in person I'd be all set. Guess I'll have to wait...
