Roush 421428 Exhaust installed on my 5.0
#231
My roush pipe that goes over the axle is getting some surface rust as well. Ive had it 5 months. Since I've installed it I have gotten pulled over once for it being to loud. So for you guys in NY beware. I live in SC so I told the cop I was just passing thru. My exhaust hits my leaf spring so I'm taking back to the shop who installed it and seeing of they can fix it so it won't hit anymore. Would I regret buy

Just got done installing the new Roush exhaust on my 5.0. Man this thing is LOUD! Sounds great though. It is very deep, and under acceleration has no drone, but a "thrum thrum" in the cab. You get on it and it literally screams. They don't call this thing a "coyote" for nothing!
It was a pretty easy install. Kind of a pain to get the stock system out in one piece. Had to drop the spare and bend the spare tire heat-shield back just a bit to worm it out. It just bolted right up. Cutting the mid-pipe was the most time consuming part as you need to measure, measure, measure.
You will need a 13mm socket for the two bell connector bolts, 15mm deep well socket for the clamps, a 19mm socket and a 21mm end wrench to loosen the lower spring perch bolt to add the additional hanger the Roush system needs. You will also need a picky wife, or significant other, to tell you when you have the tips lined up.
Here is a quick vid at startup and idle. This does not do the sound justice. It is much deeper at idle.

Here are some install pics:
Stock vs Roush
Stock resonator vs Roush muffler.
Roush midpipe is 61" long. You cut this to fit. I had to cut about 18" to make it fit. So this *should* fit a supercrew with the 6.5" foot bed all the way down to a reg cab.

Next the tail pipe:

What does your dealership say about this as far as your warranty? Mine told me anything I put on it, even Ford aftermarket parts will void my warranty. I talked to a service worker though not the service manager, just wondering if anyone else's dealership told them that.
My "local" dealership hasn't mentioned it either, but they are pretty much against any modification of any type to a vehicle.
From my perspective the only warranty that I voided was the exhaust warranty from the cat back.

My dealership offered free liftime oil changes so I take it in every few months for an oil change. I'm not sure if they would take note that I have an exhaust and intake or not, but I do put the stock intake back on every time i go in.
