Thats nice but budget really isn't going to be a problem. I'm just trying to think what would sound best with the Roush Quad Tip Exhaust.
And let my girl shed a few pounds.

LOL obviously cost isn't an issue if you can afford a 40K Mustang but if you look at the FRPP and the shiftek design. They are the exact same thing. Why would you want to pay more??? The piping is the same diameter. Same stainless material and thickness. Why would one sound different from the other? Youtube is your best bet for different sound clips. Here's the link to the shiftek sight.

You know what Blue your right and thanks for the link and my wallet thanks you to lol.
And I have been looking on youtube but there is only one vid of a 2015 with the FR side exhaust and its not paired with the roush quad tip exhaust. But in your opinion what sounds better x-pipe or h-pipe?

X pipes are louder and raspier and I believe they have slightly more power. On the other hand, An H pipe is better at balancing sound and it also produces a more consistent growl. So, depends what do you find as a priority.

I asked my muffler shop to install an h-pipe on my car but they installed an x-pipe instead...I really think it would of benefited from the h-pipe..that is what these cars need sound wise. Though the they did save me a bunch of money on the x-pipe so I am not mad at all.
