Axle-Back or Full Cat-back
 

which is recommended? i have the stock exhaust on my 06GT but want the deeper-throatier tone. I may do CAI down the road if that matters too

thanks!

Personally if you are not going to an x pipe I would only do the axle back as you would be replacing stainless pipe with stainless pipe:tup

Is there an advantage to going with an x-pipe and full cat-back over the axle-back? (all of a sudden I feel like a newb *LOL*)

Axle back no sense doing cat back!

Is the stock exhaust not 2 1/2 already from Ford along with nice bends in the system.So wouldn't it be a waste of money to do a catback?Doing the axle back seems to be the smart saving ways i would think?!
Just looking at the diagram,it's a pretty nice system stock,and doesn't even look restricted at all compared the the previous years.So if it were me,i would do the axleback for some serious sound improvements for sure.:wink:

The stock pipes are good. Go axle back.
For performace gains, cold air intake and a tune make a world of differance. Then 4.10's.

Agree with all the above:tup

Pardon?
 

Forgive me stupidness - 4.10s?

Anyways, thanks to everyone for their input. decided on axle-back - now which ones *LOL*- found this list:

Does anyone have any opinions on this kit from Ford Racing?

4.10 are gears-rear end. If you have a 5sp you have 3.55 auto I think 3.31's. I alway got into Flowmaster 40's on the Mustangs. With my new 09 I am running MagnaFlow:wiggle:

I am deciding between the Sean Hyland JBA's @$395, the Steeda axle-backs @$550.85, and the Roush GT Extreme Performance Exhaust Kit (part#403936) @$650 incl. shipping

note - all these prices are CDN and I am in Canada...
