Default Which axle back?

I need to have at least a rumble sound from my new 2013 GT/CS......the factory mufflers just dont get it!!!
I know there are plenty of comments in here about which axle backs sound the best. Im looking to hear from mustang gt owners who have axle backs and like them for around less than $ 300. I love a good rumble like the flowmasters I had on my 08 GT/CS.
Do flowmasters sound good on the 2013's ?
Im really not into changing out anything but the axle backs. So please limit the subject to axle back mufflers!
Thanx for any info

If you want a higher quality material axle back look into either borla, corsa, pypes, etc. SLP loudmouths are also good. Im personally in love with Borla ATAK and S-type mufflers. I have a Borla ATAK catback that sounds wicked, but their axle-backs are awesome as well.

Not sure where you're at in Ohio but if you're near me I will let you hear my 13 with the FRPP gt500 mufflers I love how muscular it sounds.

GT500 with the resonators removed....almost quiet with gentle driving, good rumble when playing around. A small amount of rumble when slowing.

I think its all personal preference, I think you tube can be deceiving also as I listened to tons of clips then heard some of the same exhaust in person and the sounded very different, I thought the pypes sounded good on youtube then heard em on a car and they sounded like an old pickup with a cherry bomb on it, I would suggest going to the nearest race track orcruise night and listening to some cars. Thats how I wound up with my gt500s.

I have a Corsa system on my '06 GT 'vert and I love it. quiet in cruise mode but really sound off at WOT. All stainless too, so will last life of car. Best part, zero drone.
