Default Mufflers on a 2012 Auto V6

Hi guys I have a 2012 V6 Premium and it is an auto trans.

I am trying to get a new muffler for my mustang, eventually i'm going to change the entire exhaust system but I'm doing it step by step because i'm poor.

At first I had my eye locked on the Magnaflow Street Axel back, and as far i like it the most, but it seemed like that this pair of mufflers produce a terrible droning sound on automatics because of the constant shifting during normal driving.

I want to ask if it is true about the droning sound while shifting and what would be a better choice if I want to avoid this droning sound? (I also like the Roush a lot)

Drone will drive you crazy. Glass packed mufflers can be drone free I have used Dynomax on my last three cars and no drone. One was a CTS, 6cly and it had the best sound of any 6 I have heard.(Turbo on it) Turbos might not be loud enough for some.

Flowmaster may have some glass filled exhaust.

Have a muffler shop bend a pipe from where the muffler mounts to the exits.

Extremely cheap muffler delete, that sounds amazing.
