  Quit researching and get these!!

  When I was trying to decide what axle-back exhaust I wanted to get to replace the current ones on my car I thought long and hard, read tons of interviews and listened to numerous sound clips before I finally decided to get the Pype Bombs. I bought mine used and it already had after market exhaust that were nice but i wanted something a little more aggressive. Two things that sold me on the Pypes were the price and the positive reviews. However I must admit that when I first got them and saw the design i was afraid they would be too loud and/or have an unbearable drone at cruising speed. I couldn't have been more wrong!! These bad boys really made my car sound like a true muscle car and there is a slight power increase that's always a bonus. Even the wife likes them and i have gotten quite a few compliments from other people, both male and female, as well! Installation was not bad. Luckily i have a friend that has an air compressor and a nice air wrench that certainly cut a little of the labor out. Be sure and have a good 13mm socket and an open/box end wrench as the wrench will be needed to take the forward most hanger bracket off. I had to remove both hanger brackets on mine and i would assume that all 2010's are alike. Overall I am very pleased with my purchase and the great customer service from AM. I will be adding pic in the next few days as my Stang is black and the black exhaust tips add just that more "fast" look to it. As the title says, stop your research and get the Pype-Bombs!!

  Getting the stock off, was the biggest problem.

  Buy this item. It sounds great, looks great, I love the feel of it. I forgot that I put a new exhaust on my car and the next morning when I started my car, got chills.

  Attention Grabber

  I just added these to my 2007 GT/CS which was purchased over the winter with 6000 miles. I desired to keep a mostly stock look for the CS, and the 4" black Pypes tips look amazing with the black CS air spltter on the back and add a mean and aggressive look appropriate for a performance Mustang. There is a very limited selection of black tips on the market and I was concerned about the loudness for an (almost) straight pipe; they are loud but not over the top or obnoxious. The exhaust note is very aggressive and will definitely grab attention. It sounds amazing at idle (reminiscent of a 60's era Mustang) and continues the amazing (and loud) sound throughout the throttle band, sending chills at WOT. There is a small amount of drone at 1800-2000 rpm however that was more or less expected and it is within tolerable limits. With the FRPP intake and BAMA tune installed before the exhaust, there is a small, but noticable increase in performance and throttle response with this setup. Installation was very easy and took about 2 hours, most of which was devoted to getting the boring factory boxes off due to rusty bolts and limited access to the bolts. (A 15mm deep socket is reccomended for the clamps.) It should be noted that there are notches on the factory H-pipe (if you're only installing the axle back) which would not line up with the grooves on the Pypes. This required taking an angle grinder to remove the notches, which only took about 10 minutes. After that the Pypes installed easily with the provided clamps and some muffler cement for a perfect seal. It is worth replacing the rust prone factory hangars while everything is off the car. The price was fair costing much less than other axle back solutions and as always AM provides quick shipping and great customer service. Highly reccomended.

  Way too Loud

  I have headers and high flow cats on my GT, along with the stock mufflers. These axle backs are just too loud and take away the great mustang sound that I am used to. I'm sure they are not as loud with the stock exhaust. Just doesn't work for me, love the look on my Alloy Metallic GT, would love to see a manufacturer make the black tip on a muffler style axle back....

  Black Pypes Pype Bomb

  Well, the first set I received had to be returned, because I was sent to passenger side pipes, but AM was great and sent me a new set that day and they arrived the following afternoon. That said, these black pipes look mean on the car, much more agressive than my Borlas did. Install took me about 30 minutes, my only gripe is that the notch on the passenger side pipe didnt match up with the stud on the over-axle pipe at all. No biggie though, just something I thought I'd mention. I was more or less blown away when I cranked the engine. The sound is loud and deep. It sounds scary, its amazing. Theres definitely a drone around 2k, 2.5k, but its not that bad; my Borlas were worse. I noticed that the car was a little quicker, and my MPG improved from 17.9 to 18.2. Buy these pipes!

  Pype Bomb Low Down

  (2006 redfire mustang gt)Ok, so if your anything like me, you have already spent countless hours on AM and youtube looking up clips with different combo's of exhausts. Just so I can save you some time I decided to give you my two cents. The pype bombs came very quickly as always with AM, it was about 6 in the afternoon here in OK so the sun was pretty much gone...like that was going to stop me. So I got out there with my flashlight and wrenches and completed the removal and installation in about an hour, maybe a little more. I spent probably double the time getting the old ones off. My advice is to use WD-40 and save yourself some cursing. Once they were off and I cleaned up the pipes, the Pype Bombs were on in about 15 minutes tops. Since, I could feel slight but present increases in HP, don't expect crazy amounts after all its just axle backs. The sound is great, yes it is loud as everyone has said so don't buy it if you don't like it. I happen to fully enjoy it. There is some backflow of air that you can hear going back through the chambers whenever you let off the throttle after getting on it some but it isn't enough to bother me. The resonation is present but again, the drone is present for maybe 500 rpm throughout the range and goes away upon gear change. It was everything I was looking for and I was looking for a good year due to me not actually having the car yet! But the anticipation was well worth it and I would fully recommend them given you are looking for the things I listed above. Happy shopping gentlemen (and ladies!). *Also this is the only mod currently on the car so any gains/sound improvement is solely from the Pype Bombs.

  They will hear you from miles away

  These pipes are amazing. The sound from them is just fantastic. not the high raspy sound you hear on alot of aftermarket pipes. These are a deep roar! Only problem is trying to talk in the car under acceleration is a thing of the past. Even with sound deadening its almost impossible to talk through. Talking through the cars bluetooth while accelerating is not going to happen.

  For anyone with a v6!

  My v6 started with a single flowmaster, then dual ebay brand exhausts (pype x pipe), and now finally stock manifolds/cats , x pipe, and then the pype bombs. It is impossible to find a good sounding exhaust, but I have found it. By far the toughest, most aggressive option. I've ran straight pipes on my 6 and it sounds horrible. I wanted something as close as possible in terms of loudness but without the harsh sounding popping and stuff like that. This I believe is the loudest possible exhaust that you can live with day in and day out. Cruising speed is quiet enough to hold a conversation (barely) and a little throttle it will turn heads. I am in love with this exhaust. First day driving it had two people try to race me in the same night. Loudness is as good as it gets if you like loud with good quality sound 5/5. The note is as good as it gets for the volume. Sometimes you have to sacrifice a little tone for volume and this is a perfect mix. My only complaint is fit and finish. Exhaust came in with a couple dings (luckily not noticeable once mounted so I didn't return them) and if the tips are in the right light you can see swirl marks on them. For a brand new in the box never used muffler just from the powdercoater I expected MINT condition. However once mounted, there black, they blend in, and they look amazing. So tired of chrome tips. the v8 is usually pretty easy to get good sound out of, and if this sounds good on a v6 I can guarantee they sound even better on a v8. ;)

  Great sound!

  I had flowmaster american thunders on my car and the constant loud drone was unbearable. The pype bombs are great! Very deep v8 goodness all the time, although it's not a quiet system while cruising, after a few hundred miles there is NO DRONE. I still have stock manifolds/midpipe so once i have long tubes and offroad h, they'd get pretty loud I'd imagine. But if you just want aggressive sound, save the $ and get these over flowmasters, can't speak for other brands.

  Nice axle back

  Bought this to compliment my all black stang and I'm glad I did. It all fit and lined up better than I expected.has an aggressive low tone but not too loud. It has gotten me lots of compliments. Install was easy,hardest part was getting the old stuff off.

  Great! Stop doubting it and buy!

  Installation proved to be a little difficult when it came to reaching 2 of the bolts above the stock muffler. Other than that it was a quick install. As soon as I started my car for the first time after installing I instantly could care less on how annoying the installation was.

  Sounds Too Good

  08 GT with O/R x pipe from Pypes, now with these axle backs from Pypes music to my ears. The installation very easy alignment was spot on, not sure why some people were having problems, however everything went smoothly on my 08.

  Pypes exhaust

  Truthfully I will never buy any other exhaust again. I ran it on a 98 Gt and now on the 06 both of them I ran the X-pipe. I think they are the best sounding pipes out there. They will make everyone look at any speed you are going. I'm even going to run them on my truck. Awesome product with an awesome price.

  Loud exhaust

  This exhaust has a deep muscle car tone. I like the fact that it's mild at idle but when you mash the gas, WOW!!!!!!. I am very satisfied with this exhaust. And of course I have a o/r h-pipe, bbk shorty headers, and a JLT cai. If you don't at least have a o/r x or h pipe, you are cheating yourself.....

  Nice Pypes

  The craftsmanship and finish is nice. I didn't really notice any increase in power but the exhaust note is great. They are a little loud for my liking. Install was a breeze and looks nice with my black stang.

  Install was a breeze minus grinding off the tab from the factory h pipe. Have bought these for an 06 GT and now in black for a 10 GT. Have yet to be disappointed.

  Sounds awesome, fitment wasnt great

  The driver side hanger didn't fit 100%. had to heat up the hanger and bend it for it fit flush with bumper. These axle backs also stick out a couple inches from the bumper. Wasn't a big deal but it does look silly. sound is amazing 100% what i wanted. it turns heads even with the stock H-Pipe. i cant even imagine what an off-road x pipe would sound like. overall 4.5/5 good product.

  Not worth it

  Got this for a first axle back and was hoping for that awesome sound that was acclaimed, got them installed in no time the hardest part was taking the stock ones off. After getting them on I noticed the passenger side didn't fit as well as other, they both stick out the same and look good but it's like the exhaust pipe isn't same size as the stick pipe and it won't tighten all the way and it rattles every so often when I'm driving or Idling and the guy at local muffler shop said the best solution is welding it which I didn't want to in case of an upgrade. I then got an offload H pipe for it and now it is annoying and raspy loud. For the price of these its not worth it it's better to just buy a better exhaust system.

  READ BEFORE YOU BUY

  Let me just start by saying I love these pipes, and I recommend them to anyone. Having said that, you need to be warned. These pipes are VERY poorly packaged. As always, they shipped fast with AM, however when I opened the box, the tips of my pipes were scratched and the black finish removed. It was initially blamed on handling by UPS. A new set was sent and all was fine. Until my second set came the exact same way. Tips damaged. This time I called and complained again, however I opted to just repaint the tips myself rather than keep getting damaged pipes. The moral of the story, order these for the sound, but MAKE SURE you have them add extra packaging before they ship or you will have to keep dealing with disappointment when you can't put these babies on your car like you wanted.

    Sorry to hear you received these with damaged tips. That is not generally something we hear many problems with, but I'm sending this packaging feedback over to Pypes to see what they can do to improve how these ship! Thank you for letting us know!
