Maybe the Kooks Mustang GT350 still needs some work?

In it, the new exhaust system sounds like it’s an old rusty unit from a Fox Body. It definitely doesn’t sound like a ridiculous naturally aspirated FPL engine that’s been uncorked.
yes it does; this is what most flat-plane V8s sound like. The stock GT350 uses similar 4-3-1 headers as the 5.0 Coyote which alters the exhaust pulse pattern to keep something of a classic V8 "burble." If Kooks is just doing a 4-into-1 dump into the collectors, they're going to lose that burble and it's going to sound more like the canonical flat plane e.g. Ferrari.
