I really need to replace the Roush exhaust on my RT570. When I first bought this truck almost a month ago, it was loud...had an SPT resonator installed as recommended by Roush to help tone it down and help with the extreme drone. It helped slightly but not near enough for me to drive this truck as a daily driver. I am looking for something that will sound good, have a deep throaty rumble and sound aggressive when pushed, but not near as loud and with as much drone as the Roush exhaust. I want as little to no drone as possible and want to be able to powder coat the tips black.

Any suggestions? I am looking at the Solo Mach-X Dual with the optional resonator or the Borla or the Corsa exhaust. I really liked the MBRP Black Series, but I after researching on this forum I have turned from that due to the rust, since it is not a stainless exhaust system. The Roush dealer I have been working with recommended the Ford Racing exhaust as a replacement, but I think that was only made for a 2014 Raptor, not a 2014 FX4 SuperCrew with a short bed? Anyone have any suggestions or has anyone come from the Roush exhaust to another and been really happy with the reduction in loudness and drone?

Ford Racing? Solo Mach-X? Borla? Corsa? Other? Help...

BTW...if anyone is looking for a Roush exhaust, PM me when I remove it and I will sell it for a great price!

Thanks!

 

In the same boat as you. Just youtubed the Ford Racing stuff, sounds pretty good on the 5.0.

 

I "had" a Roush system on my '12 5.0. I tried a few different mufflers to try and rid myself of the drone with zero success. Finally, I did what I should have from the start, and went with a Borla SType. The new SType, comes with a resonator, and the same muffler as the ATAK system. It wouldn't be a big trick to replace the resonator with a Borla extension pipe for the ATAK system, if the full SType is too quiet for you. I have ZERO drone now, just a nice gurgle at freeway speeds. Yes, you definitely hear it if you jump on it, but no where close to as obnoxious as the Roush.
I also found, that the more you run it, the better it's sounding, it's a packed muffler, and as it broke in, it sounded better.
Right now, I'm running a 5* 91 octane performance tune, with an AiRaid intake, it sounds great! Very happy with what I wound up with.

I'm almost thinking, the Ford system you guys are talking about, is actually a Borla system. I thought I'd read that somewhere. The Ford system has "Ford" on the tips, just like Borla has their logo there.

 

Borla or Solo Mach X!


Love my Solo and it costs a few bucks less, but you would be happy with either. And if not (for some reason!) you could sell them quick.
