Axle back exhaust with more power?

Hi Guys,
Is there any axle back exhaust, that might increase power in the 5.0?

Not any real power increase with any of them, just more noise.

To gain power you have to remove all restriction from the exhaust. At the very least, replace from the H pipe back with 3" gear (cat back). I used the Pypes 3" x pipe and had 3" tubing welded in from the x pipe past the resonators into the axle backs. Power is all about air in and air out.

yea i agree its more of sound upgrade... Headers and full exhaust is most efficient way to see power gains..

How much tuning is needed after a full (headers back) exhaust is put on? Would you guys go custom on the piping or buy from a manufacturer?

I have the Bassani and it has a great sound. I have the Roush SC and it pushes 530 RWHP or 605 Flywheel with the rest of the exhaust stock.

It has a deeper sound than most of the other one's i've heard.
