That does sound very nice, it's almost rude not too!Centurion07 said:
I've been through almost all the aftermarket exhaust clips on YouTube including Magnaflow, Roush, ARH etc and that one is by far and away the best one.
But you lot have to get something else 'cos I heard it first!
Do you know if you can just bolt this onto a UK spec car? I'm tempted to preorder one of these before the car arrives so I can get in straight on. Prices doesn't seem too bad:-But you lot have to get something else 'cos I heard it first!

Why the touring? I think I'm going for the sport

Aren't you getting a convertible Folie? Might be worth going for something a tad quieter than the Sport if so.
Yes I do, so this is a consideration especially with 2 young kids in the back.I have been through the Youtube clips and the Touring sounds nice, but doesn't quite have the effect I'm looking for at idle - that deep burble on start up which the Sport seems to have (as much as you can tell from a video clip)
The next one up (Racing?) is too loud.
Previous cars include a Vantage V8 with Fuse 22 removed (disables the exhaust butterfly valve) and a Tuscan S with Carbon Cans, so soundtrack is important to me.
I guess none of us will know for sure until we have our cars and pipes.

Yeah.... I had a Vantage with fuse 22 removed and I also gutted the back box but it wasn't that loud really..

The TVR's on the other hand, although great for blasting around turned a bit wearing on long journeys..

My plan for the Mustang, is some Euro trips and use as much as possible, so having had loud in the past, this time I'd rather something a little more subtle
Nice clips!http://youtu.be/Q3h_DHSXUHs

You were swaying me towards the Touring but I've just watched the Brola film again and I think the Touring sounds too much like the stock exhaust. I was going to go for the S-Type (sorry called it Sport in my earlier posts), but I think I may have upsold myself to the ATAK, although I'm not sure her indoors will sign that off for the school run

Just fitted the decklid, as you will see from Gibbo's thread it looks much better (in my opinion) that the GT badge
And the sports exhaust (Ford Racing by Borla) which sounds sooooo much better than the stock one. It has a nice growl to it when accelerating, but is actually quite quiet when cruising at motorway speeds.
The Ford garage fitted both for £90 all in which I didn't think was too bad at all. The boys in the workshop where very happy with the exhaust note
