Thumbs up Rousch axleback vs flowmaster outlaw.

Ok so I have been youtubing for over a month now. And I am stuck between these two. I want loud but not obnoxious. I'm keeping the rest of the exhaust stock except I will do the resonator delete and go with the straight pipe. I'm afraid if I get the rousch it will be to high pitch for my taste. I want the deep note. But also afraid the outlaws will have drone issues. Some drone ok but not vibrating my ears drone. Hoping someone on here who has these can give me a little more help than the videos with the sound quality of each. I live in the country so not worried about neighbors. Also if it helps any on a scale of 1 to 10 I would like a 8 and half to 9 scale of loudness. Thanks alot guys I really appreciate it. Also before anyone recommends it I don't have any car shows in close distance to hear these two in person.

if you go with the roush , spraypaint all the welds with rustoleum before installing.

if you delete resonators, then the roush will be way too loud and sound pretty bad, but with resonators i think it sounds perfect, heres a vid of mine, camera doesnt really pick up the sound too well but you can hear it if you turn it up, also this isnt under load. Its just the axlebacks everythign else stock.

The roush's were way louder than i was expecting. Under light throttle they have a nice deep rumble to to them. When you stomp the gas, especially above say 4k rpms, they absolutely scream. I love the way it sounds.

That's sweet. How much louder you think they would be without the resonators?

The outlaws are really loud. Why not get the Flowmaster American Thunder? The Roushes to me are too high pitched and unnatural sounding. I have the American Thunder on mine because I prefer the deeper sound.
