Recently installed the full race resonated on my ecoboost I do run the 91 octane canned tune from SCT and have definitely noticed some more bottom end tq...it is a nice set up if your looking for some
Performance gains with a subtle increase in sound.

I installed the Eco-Sleeper exhaust from stage 3 motorsports, I run it with a 87 tune from Unleashed Tune, and am getting 17.3mpg on the highway and 15 in the city. That was a change from 12.3 and 13.8. Do notice a better throttle response and lower end torque(even without the tune). The eco-sleeper exhaust is one of the quietest exhaust I could find, and well worth the 299 I spent on it, plus the great customer service from stage 3 motorsports.

That is interesting. I was listening to the sound clips and it seems to be real quiet. You have any sound clips of yours? I am looking to keep it quiet as possible but only if I gain a decent hp/tq gain.

I can get you one, it won't be a very good quality of one because it will be with my iphone. I will say that the sound clip that have is good, it's a little louder; not by much; than the sound clip. It is def quieter than the full race. I have a buddy that has one and I can def tell mine is quieter.

Default 2013 F150 Ecoboost Corsa DB exhaust install.

i was skeptical about ordering an exhaust for my Limited but finally pulled the trigger and bought the Corsa DB mainly due to "No drone" but will find out. Just arrived at the house 5 minutes ago - literally.

Going to try install with only ramps and 3 ton jack.

i have been listening to sound clips for MONTHS and i just chose Corsa DB and hope i do not regret it (being a V6). Truck is 2013 limited with livernois 91 tune on it. Price was really good as well on amazon with the free shipping too.

Time to get to work... it is 4:30pm here so hopefully get it done before midnight.

Just thought i would give my input since i troll these forums but normally never post. time to get off my but and give insight. Will let know how install goes with just myself and my 13 year old son.

That's a nice looking exhaust.....especially the chrome twin tips! Is it a true 3" cat back? Hopefully if you have a trailer to pull, thus.... making sure their are no drone issues!

As one writer put it, with the EcoBoost engines you have a choice. You can get eco or boost, but you can't get both at the same time. I like the fact that I can granny this engine, then go maniac when I feel like it.
