Default Best sounding ecoboost

Thoughts and opinions please, I am picky about exhaust. I have not really liked any cat back sound on the Eco except the solo mr400 system, but I cannot afford it, so I made my own cat back, I believe it sounds pretty damn good . Wish I had more turbo noise and just a little deeper grunt. But it's the Eco haha.

Just listened to it through the truck speakers, sounds even better than I thought before. Congrats on the combo. Makes me kinda wish I would have left my 4040 on instead of this corsa.

I've seen several start with something they thought sounded good until they drove it a while and it started to irritate, then they add a resonator or change mufflers. I have no issue with the stock sound and did a lot of research before getting the Full Race resonated system. I tow heavy and want to hear my radio while doing it. And let's face it, an exhaust system makes barely noticeable performance improvements.
Next truck gets a tune and an IC and that is it.

I can hear my radio even when low, I can talk fine in the cab, two resonators/mufflers. Helps a lot, it sounds real good outside

But still sounds like a 6 cylinder inside lol. It's not an unbearable noise inside. No drone what so ever.
