Although we love the new 2015+ Mustang GT and pretty much everything about it the tone of the stock exhaust in our opinion is kind is lacking quite a bit. So just as we've done in the past with the older model mustangs we got right to it and developed an exhaust upgrade kit that makes this new S550 sound like it should.
One of the hurdles we were faced with on the new S550 GT is that you can't simple remove the cats and run an off-road pipe. That's because Ford designed the stock exhaust system on the 2015+ with the drivers side cat built into the manifold. Being that the cat is welded onto the drivers side manifold there's no way to easily remove the cats.
That being said there's still a few other things with the stock exhaust we felt needed to be addressed in order to increase the sound of the car without much hassle. One of those is the extra large resonator located between the cats and the mufflers. Not only is the resonator large and heavy it also dampens the sound of the exhaust quite a bit.
The video speaks for itself on how well the car responds to the delete kit. Now the car sounds like a Mustang should at a fraction of the cost of a full cat-back or axle-back system.
