@darian102030 6 лет назад

Sport mode high revs with the X sounds almost gt350 like

@jasonkornega3437 6 лет назад

Who needs any other exhaust mods?! This is awesome. Well done Ford

@stanglincoln1659 6 лет назад

Great video is always this is a great inexpensive option to get a little more sound out of your Mustang exhaust

@iiconic47 6 лет назад

When I pick up my 2018 I'm definitely getting this

@artmullen7545 6 лет назад

I read below, and am adding another comment asking for the H-pipe vs X-pipe, vs Stock video to come out. The X-Pipe video was great!

@czza2949 6 лет назад

this is gnarly, justin. i'm still processing this. Lol

@parkermeredith6035 4 года назад

You’re a scholar sir, most helpful exhaust video by far

@americanmuscle 4 года назад

Thanks for watching, Parker! We definitely take pride in doing our exhaust videos right. -Zach

@seanm.4653 6 лет назад

Great to have you back Justin. Hopefully you do the H-Pipe video too.

@americanmuscle 6 лет назад

Thanks Sean! H-pipe video should be coming out very soon! (Spoiler alert, I like it more than the X pipe...) -Justin

@David Fletcher thanks so much for your reply. I found the site on google and Im in the hacking process atm. Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.

@malikkaiser5139 2 года назад

@David Fletcher It worked and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy:D Thanks so much, you saved my account!

@Malik Kaiser happy to help =)

@OctaneStreet 4 года назад

Sheeeeesh hah what a difference! I love that you're able to mess with the exhaust system while keeping the functionality of the active exhaust. Really dope video, would love to see this done to an '18+ ecoboost with active exhaust if you haven't already done that!

@americanmuscle 4 года назад

Thanks for the feedback Octane! And also thanks for the suggestion, we'll look into doing that. -Justin

@acts2211 6 лет назад

Can't wait to hear the H pipe version and compare the sound and loudness probably be a little quieter but a little less raspy which I prefer

@jamdc2000 6 лет назад

agreed 100%

@acts2211 6 лет назад

Gagan Dhaliwal I would. I'm a little older than the millennial crowd I'm in my forties and deep throaty sound of the Mustang is the best way to go. I don't enjoy raspy. the active exhaust is a great option but if I had my druthers a Delta flow Flowmaster with the resonator delete would be the way to go with an H pipe. I've yet to see that set up on any modern Mustang. I had 2010 427R with muffler delete. Cats only. Sounded throaty....

@silvercoke 6 лет назад

I agree with the H pipe. Sounds much better than X pipes on any Mustang. Most people just lean towards X pipe because of the dyno numbers. IMO, this X-Pipe makes it sound like a deeper toned GT350, but I'd rather a GT sound more throaty than raspy.

@jacoblockwood8089 6 лет назад

I have an H pipe on my 15 GT and I love it together with the SR performance muffler delete pipes. Sounds awesome and It is very loud

@thumper7897 6 лет назад

acts2211 I also prefer the older sound for a Mustang and I got a 2011 Mustang GT with the Pypes Super System and MBRP H-Pipe with stock cats. Sounds very old school and throaty. I’m gonna add the Kooks Super Street Shorty Headers soon and I’m sure it’ll add to the deep tone of the exhaust.

@americanmuscle 6 лет назад

Are you digging the active exhaust and x-pipe combo?

@MustangGuru 6 лет назад

AmericanMuscle.com yes. Just purchased some a Roush axleback for the wife's 2015 V6. Now it's my turn. Lol.

@shanebatten6473 6 лет назад

No. It sounded best on quiet mode w/ the x. Too raspy after that. Can't wait for the h-pipe comparison. I prefer the rumble of an h-pipe better

@amirdadabhoy 6 лет назад

it sounded great, although the corsa x pipe would've made it even better.

@kcintv8745 6 лет назад

I love it but would love to hear the active exhaust with a h-pipe as well!!

@SodaCriminal 6 лет назад

I'm just tryna smash

@JsGarage 6 лет назад

Wow I’d do this for sure. Makes this car sound a lot like the GT350 despite obvious differences in engine design.

@savagecoon6916 6 лет назад

Music to my ears 🎶🕪

@milamber8397 6 лет назад

Love it man!

@JsGarage 6 лет назад

This is the way to go. I’d definitely go active exhaust.

@andresrazo7317 6 лет назад

Wow I’m amazed

@neverendingmods 6 лет назад

Great comparison review. This and the h pipe. I like the x pipe sound. Do a full long tube header decatted with factory active muffler comparison. Really curious how the factory active mufflers sound with an otherwise full off road racing exhaust setup man.

@19coyote5oh9 6 лет назад

This is this first mod on my 18, then a set of lowering springs.

@lt.bigchungus8092 2 года назад

just bought it youre badass

@HandSolo1 6 лет назад

Yes. Yes I am digging it...

@aadler8986 6 лет назад

That sweet lovely lovely sound...

@hungrymynd5673 6 лет назад

Like the track mode with Stock exhaust

@-grizzly-4224 6 лет назад

The sweet sound of music😍🎶😍🎼😍

@carsmartsmedia2324 6 лет назад

Nice, clean mod.

@JCTiggs1 5 лет назад

I put an X-pipe on my 2019 GT with stock mufflers and it's louder than my 2017 GT with an MBRP cat-back system. The cold starts are extremely loud. 😳

@MDJ774 2 года назад

It's better than the mbrp?

@lees3379 6 лет назад

I like the active exhaust option- eliminates aftermarket exhaust purchases & D-R-O-N-E... BUT, I'm not yet thrilled w/what I've heard on the various videos. Perhaps the OEM exhaust sounds better in person? Yeah, it's louder when opened up but not necessarily better sounding or deeper & that's always what I'm looking for- old school muscle car sound. Still, I'm glad AM is offering this comparo w/the resonator in place & removed/replaced w/the X pipe but I'm far more interested in H pipe deep-throatiness. It would also be interesting to see if the resonator removal adds any power to the car. Thanks Justin!

@mattjones1378 6 лет назад

Yup, 2018 gt performance package with active exhaust, if I bought this car and and its just a daily driver with some fun on the streets and occasionally trip to autocross or dragstrip just for fun, only modification i would do is add window tint.

@glahut93 6 лет назад

Great video

@americanmuscle 6 лет назад

Thanks Nik! -Justin

@luisvaldez2941 6 лет назад

I’d prefer the H pipe instead. H pipe has a nice deep rumble. Had both on my 15 GT. Too much rasp with the X pipe. Can’t wait for the video. Great video as always

@americanmuscle 6 лет назад

I'm traditionally more of an H-pipe fan myself Luis and that vid should be dropping very soon. I actually prefer the H pipe with the active system over the X- but you can be the judge! -Justin

@luisvaldez2941 6 лет назад

AmericanMuscle.com I wonder how it will sound with the h pipe and cat deletes. Hopefully I get my 18 GT this weekend.

@nickkostakis9600 2 года назад

That was great and very interesting brilliant thank you very much

@americanmuscle 2 года назад

Thanks for watching, Nick! We appreciate it! -Zach

@Zander13Productions 6 лет назад

sounds good

@quickdrive3488 6 лет назад

Honestly it seems like you don't have to do anything with the new 2018 Mustangs Gts that come with the active exhaust. But after watching this video if someone did want a little more all they would need is this mod and their needs would be met!

@aramboyd3906 6 лет назад

Quick Drive! I agree

@MustangTogunner 6 лет назад

they're trying to get people to spend money after on top of paying for that active system

@Eddie2425 6 лет назад

If you've ever seen one of those factory resonators cut apart, and how restrictive it is, you'll want to change it right away!

@allannichols9864 6 лет назад

Exactly, and if you were to add long tubes, you would want a new cat back with bigger pipe and straight through mufflers. The best way to look at it in my view is that for most people the active exhaust is the way to go. Yet, for most motor heads like us the active exhaust seems is cool in theory, but it’s not going to cut it down the road, so there is no point ordering it.

@stevehall6539 6 лет назад

Sounds good Justin , glad to see your back on our side bro , honestly I'd prefer to do my own set up rather than the active set up , my 17 still has the stock pipes on it , only because I'm not made of money , ya know morgage payments , mustang payments , all that fun stuff , but I definitely want to get rid of the stock resonator , good job as always bro !

@stevehall6539 6 лет назад

That's the plan in the long run , it's way to quiet stock , x pipe will be in as soon as I get some extra funds , oya and get clearance from the wife , happy wife , happy life , at least I have the car , that's a good start

@gregoryhill5162 6 лет назад

Thanks Justin

@americanmuscle 6 лет назад

Anytime brother! -Justin

@CrazyGreek80 6 лет назад

@SagarPatel-in8il 3 года назад

How are u reving it past 5k? Mine has a soft limiter(2020 gt w 10r80)

@dannyreddy 6 лет назад

If you get a 2018 mustang with no active exhaust, what is the sound comparable to. Is it always in track?

@traviosa7050 6 лет назад

I Put on the delete x pipe and my mufflers arent straight. The outside exhaust tips are lower by a little. Doesn't look bad, but how can i straighten them back up?

@Sigrafix 6 лет назад

I like the idea of the active exhaust.. Quiet mode so you don't upset the neighbors and Track mode for every day driving Lol.. Normal and Sport are pointless if you ask me. Can't wait to see what the H Pipe sounds like.. hope you guys do a video comparing the X pipe and H pipe too.

@tombofmar5032 2 года назад

I think it sounds perfect with active exhaust and x pipe

@WrestlingHeroesfigz1 5 лет назад

5:36

@MrBlack_761 6 лет назад

4:35 woke me right tf up!

@Ballista762 6 лет назад

Not sure if I like the high pitch. I like deep gurgly sound

@MochiPUZZLES 4 года назад

Ya stocked sounded better to me here

@Mc.Nuggetz 4 года назад

You’d prefer an H pipe then

@SuperSultan502 3 года назад

how does this compare to a double helixx ? like which one is louder which one crackles more which one is raspier ?

@yourmanzach2307 6 лет назад

I want a gt but if I got that x pipe I think I would always have a headache lol. Stock sounds perfect but I could be wrong!!!

@user-eh4xj4lm1p 3 года назад

Never thought I’d say this, but I wish I could make my exhaust quiet for those long long drives and when I have to take a phone call in the car

@gadgetmantwincities 6 лет назад

Do you have any videos on the varex exhaust?

@newfinishautospa 5 лет назад

Not exactly smack dab in the middle since with each decibel increase the volume increase is exponential.

@rickmassey1272 9 месяцев назад

Before purchasing a exhaust for your s550 mustang gt try my method for a deep old-school tone with ZERO drone or rasp. Measure 2in before the muffler on both sides and use a hole drill to make a 1in hole in the exhaust on both sides. At every cars and coffee I get asked what exhaust am I using. I get tone,and pops and crackling after revving...and it was virtually a free mod that sounds better than aftermarket parts.

@al151 6 лет назад

Getting rid off factory exhaust and replacing it with borla catback saves you 30 lbs! On a base gt we are talking about a weight of 3675 lbs with full liquids! A race weight under 3900 lbs! Now with flow form wheels and nice rubber it is possible to have low to mid 3600 lbs car with simple boltons putting down 500 whp!!

@GuyFromJupiter 6 лет назад

Quiet mode was about 5 or 6 times louder. That's a freaking big difference!

@Salman_Makki 6 лет назад

Does the 16 exhaust sound same as quite mode on 18 ?

@braunsenterprises7885 6 лет назад

Will you do this with cat less headers ?

@JrDelValle686 6 лет назад

Hey Justin I was wondering if the MMD V series spoiler would fit the 18? Thanks

@MajMotorsports21 6 лет назад

It's Insanityz there is no difference between the trunk of a 15-17 and 18 so the v series spoiler would fit

@davidille4482 6 лет назад

Awesome

@Jonathan1003 6 лет назад

Can’t wait to hear the H pipe

@benhaze1010 6 лет назад

More noise does not mean it is better sounding and this is a good example here IMO. Also please rev the engines the same way so we can really compare the sound differences.

@Kaiser187 6 лет назад

With some long tube headers this thing would be insane loud.

@yhakult 4 года назад

How about idle and cruising in track mode?

@MustangTogunner 6 лет назад

justin hey what smartwatch is that?

@MustangGuru 6 лет назад

FIRST ,,,, Nice. The tone actually went slightly deeper with The SR in track mode. My 2015 Roush RS3 will be getting an upgrade in the very near future.

@peterpeters4111 6 лет назад

I have the Borla S-Type axel back on my 2016 GT and went with the SR X pipe but strange thing is in the mid rpm acceleration it sounds like shit on a Bama street tune but when on the Race tune it seems to sound much better on it! These are the things you won't see or hear in these videos but just a heads up!

@ramairetransam 6 лет назад

thats great .

@iLoveTheseRemoras 9 месяцев назад

I can say for sure that the referred fightet jet decibel number is not taken a couple of meters away from the back of the jet though 😂

@MW_1981 6 лет назад

Although it does sound louder with the new pipe, you are definitely revving it harder in every test compared to the stock pipes, where you are just blipping the throttle.

@americanmuscle 6 лет назад

The cars were revved to 'redline' in both tests. -Justin

@matthewhyde4177 Год назад

Not what I heard

@ajah3247 4 года назад

Can i do this Y pipe on ecoboost with active exhaust?

@levtsarev 4 года назад

*Quiet Mode* Still hits 100 dB 😂

@americanmuscle 4 года назад

Who needs a resonator anyway? 😅 -Zach

@behanbeats1787 6 лет назад

The stock exhaust sounds so much better

@Grimr33fer 6 лет назад

I need to trade In my 2017 for an 18 but I have to much money in parts I put in to it, damn I’d love one though !

@legends7823 2 года назад

I have the factory active exhaust if I installed the x pipe I wouldn’t be able to control the sound?

@Gjm127 6 лет назад

What X pipe is featured in this video ??

@christophergran8313 6 лет назад

Sounds better

@curtis20041 3 года назад

So what's the power and weight difference if any????

@kylemarek2394 4 года назад

Does this affect putting on a exhaust getting a 2018 mustang with x pipe already on it and wasn’t sure how changing the exhaust would work if anyone knows?

@americanmuscle 4 года назад

Not too sure what you're asking here. If you're looking at purchasing a 2018 Mustang that already has an X-Pipe on it, then you'll be able to put any kind of axle back system on it that you want. Any axle back system you install will be louder than normal though, since the original resonator will be deleted and replaced with that X-Pipe. If you're looking at a cat-back system, most of them would have deleted the resonator anyway so you will likely have to replace the X-Pipe that is currently installed. Hope this helps! -Zach

@derekstang6663 5 лет назад

Would the x pipe take away your warranty?

@Stanley112803 6 лет назад

Imagine how the Borla S-type or ATAK with active exhaust would sound!!!

@dontwannahaverealnamexddd6778 6 лет назад

my 2015 has this exact resonator delete.. SR performance, and a borla axle back. It is way too loud lol. I sometimes start my car up on cold days at work, it shakes the building. I honestly wouldnt recommend doing both.. it just gets a little obnoxious.

@vdubjetta02 6 лет назад

Historically X pipes make more power than H pipes. But the sound is up to personal opinion. I am an X pipe guy as the car typically makes the noise it is running "smoother" . At least that is how I felt with audi V8's and Jeep SRT8's I've owned

@charlesdegener7002 6 лет назад

Make sure you tack weld this x pipe on. Mine kept popping off!

@kashs2515 6 лет назад

what is the major difference of putting an x pipe vs an h pipe into my 2018 stang?

@joseluisloaiza395 4 года назад

Second this

@johnkutney206 3 года назад

I did both on my car and I think the H-pipe sounded better.

@newedgestang5.040 6 лет назад

Should I get a 2018 mustang gt or wait till the new body style comes out

NewEdgeStang 5.0 Go for the 2018 Mustang

@Beaststang5oh 6 лет назад

NewEdgeStang 5.0 it might be a couple more years for a new style to come out like 3 4 years

@anti_christ5.070 6 лет назад

With the older cars I would prefer the H, but with these newer cars I'd prefer X

@betoski 6 лет назад

sounds way better

@danieltoro8717 4 года назад

Amazing video hats better x pipe or h pipe

@americanmuscle 4 года назад

The biggest difference between X and H pipes is the sound, which really comes down to personal preference! X-Pipes will have a higher pitched and raspy notes. They will also cut a *little* bit of low-end torque and gain a *little* high-end horsepower. H-Pipes will provide a lower-pitched and bass heavy, throaty note. They tend to give you a *little* more low-end torque and cut your high-end horsepower ever so slightly. -Zach

@rialbb 6 лет назад

im all horned up now

@whiteandnerdytuba 6 лет назад

Long tubes next. Starting to think I don't need a different axle back

@gc4644 6 лет назад

Does anyone know if Active Exhaust can be installed on a 2014 GT?

@Domcusano 4 года назад

Does a stock 2016 exhaust sound good enough ?

@americanmuscle 4 года назад

The stock exhaust on these S550s doesn't sound bad by any means! It never hurts to go louder though. 😇 -Zach

@michaelbond569 6 лет назад

I like the stock resonator sound better

@RobertKohut 6 лет назад

Nice! Eliminates the "quiet" mode....LOL

@Tubamaster2292010 6 лет назад

lol

@Eddie2425 6 лет назад

Is it just me, or who else can tell the difference in sound between the 2017 in the 2018? I think it's mostly due to the bump in compression ratio! 11:1 to 12:1

@MidnightMiata 6 лет назад

My biggest question. Did they get rid of that Chinese mt82 trans?

@brocklndrs 6 лет назад

xMidnight nope, just upgraded it to a twin disc clutch, and I think it has 2 overdrive gears now, 5th and 6th

@brocklndrs 6 лет назад

xMidnight and ratios were changed too

@hershellumiere 6 лет назад

longtubes?

@pac226 6 лет назад

Waiting for the "H" with long tubes.......exhaust done!

@Matt-ji8vu 4 года назад

I cannot decide for the life of me between X and H.. may have to stay stock since I can’t make a decision. Lol.

@americanmuscle 4 года назад

Just keep listening to sound clips and going to car-shows! X-Pipes seem more popular among most enthusiasts that I've talked with, but H-Pipes are hard to beat if you're looking for that classic muscle car throaty tone! -Zach
