  A Mature exhaust

  I recently got this exhaust and installed it myself. It's EXACTLY what I was looking for There's a much deeper quality to the exhaust note now, but the volume is only slightly above the factory levels. In my ratings, I stated it at 2/5 stars as a closer representation of the volume. For me, it's 5 stars perfect levels. Oh, and most importantly, virtually no drone on the highways. The fit and finish is quite, though some minor tweaking to get the exhaust to seat, and the tips to stick out at the right levels was needed. Bang for the buck? I got mine on sale, which helped, and they're high quality, but the price is a bit steep as well. In this case, I'd call it paying for quality.

  Quiet but great

  Installed this in place of the Roush axle back on my car because with the long tubes and O/R X pipe it was obnoxiously loud. The RTR exhaust quieted it down significantly to an acceptable level. I would imagine on an otherwise stock car that it would be very quiet. Very pleased with the quality of the product and ease of install.

  Great Old School Sound...

  I also listened to about 10-20 other axle back options on the web, and I always kept coming back to the RTR's. REALLY glad I did. Took less than an hour to put these on and they sound great. Low growl = nice. Not tinny sound or popping. These really level out when you hit cruising speed. Sounds real BA when you put your foot into that 5.0 liter. If you like the modern "skidder" (ping-ping-ping) sound, you should probably look elsewhere. These are what an Old School (not necessarily old) V8 sounds like.

  RTR Axle back

  With long tube headers these mufflers sound nice. Not loud but still loud enough when petal meets metal

  Good sound, but needs a design change

  I ordered this muffler set to quiet my 2013 GT. Previously I had Kook's Long Tube headers, X pipe, and high flow cats running to Flowmaster Outlaw pipes and mufflers. Way too loud, as everyone in a 2 mile radius could hear my car. The RTR mufflers quieted it down to a really nice rumble, I love the sound. But I definitely miss those Outlaw mufflers at times. The design needs a little fix though. The inlet for the pipes has a super short flange for the exhaust pipe, about 3/4", where the Flowmaster has about 3 inches. I couldn't get it secure and leak free, so I had no choice but it have it welded on. I don't mind that fix, just wish it would've been as simple as a clamp to hold it. Otherwise, it has great construction, looks good, and I love the new sound.

  Good Sound

  This exhaust sounds amazing.. It has a unique tone to it that sets you apart from anyone on the road. I watched a LOT of videos listening to exhaust and to be honest you have to hear it in person. It has a deep rumble with a tuner like rasp to it. I will say if your looking for a really loud exhaust than this is NOT for you. It sounds really good at 3500-4500 RPM but after that it dies down. I did feel a noticeable difference in throttle response as it freed up some exhaust air. In conclusion: If your looking for a unique sound that is not going to pis off your neighbors or be THAT GUY... than this exhaust is for you.

  Love my RTR

  I listened to a lot of Youtube videos and decided these are a perfect fit for me - which they are. Not too noisy but very classy V8 rumble. They look awesome too!

  Nice mellow sound, a bit quieter than I expected

  Put these on and the sound difference was immediate. It's a much lower rumble, with no signs of tinniness or pinging that you may hear in the videos. Fit and construction was top notch. A bit of done at 2K RPMs, but nothing unbearable. 4 stars because these are a bit quieter than I expected, but it does have a healthy sound.

  The look is better than the sound but overall good

  Well I bought a 2014 RTR Spec II last year and it came with those mufflers installed. They really have a perfect look on my RTR with the black tips and the logo on 'em but for the sound I expected a bit more. They're not bad at all and they have a nice, deep and bubbling sound on a cold start but after a few minutes they'll get significantly quiet and the same happens when accelerating. Before the RTR I owned a 2010 GT with Flowmaster Outlaws which, in combination with BBK Shortys and X-Pipes, was way too loud so having something in between would not be that bad for me. If they could remain the sound as when cold started I'd give 5 stars :)

  rtr axlebacks

  Fit and finish would get 5 stars but the outlet pipe on one of the mufflers was dented, had to have mechanic fix it. 1 hour to install by mechanic, volume was too low, expected to be louder than the previous flowmaster hushpower pro but was'nt. Exhaust note was excellent, no rasp or drone. A LITTLE louder than stock. Ceramic coating was flawless as was the separate tips. Kind of expensive, but if you want an upgrade from stock w/o being too loud, get these.

  Excellant

  Easy to install, Excellent tone quality, there is NO burble sound that comes out when you let off the throttle. The sound bite that is in the AM video is very accurate. They make the car sound powerful without being to loud and have NO in cockpit drone what so ever. I think they are awesome and I highly recommend them for an every day driver.

  Deep Sound, Great Exhaust

  So I purchased these about 4 months ago and lets just say they are loud compared to the stock exhaust. When you start the car it has a loud deep sound to it, only thing is that I expected more but if you see the design it has it makes sense because if it was one chamber where the air flows out of it would be louder, but since it has 2 chambers that let the air out one being straight through make sense why its decent loud and why it gives it that extra 9 horsepower.

  RTR Street Exhaust Review...

  After watching the 2015 RTR Mustang Introduction video on youtube I was hooked on the RTR exhaust sound. The sound, quality, and fit/finish was everything I expected from RTR/Magnaflow. The sound on start-up is really mean, and then settles down once the car warms up. There is no drone on the highway whatsoever. Just as everybody else said these mufflers make a really nice deep sound, with little to no rasp. My favorite part of this exhaust is the de-acceleration sound it makes. The best way to describe it, is that it sounds like thunder. Its just a really great sound. You can't go wrong with this exhaust.

  Nice and deep but a little quiet and muffled

  I had the Borla Atak axle back and it was beyond loud so it had to go. I also wanted something a little deeper sounding and not as raspy. I watched some videos of the RTR and it sounded pretty good so I decided to try them out and they are about half as loud as the Ataks. Plus with my white car and blacked out everything else I figured the tips would look good. Overall the sound is pretty good. Its very deep but has kind of a muffled sound inside the car. Outside the car it sounds much better. I read how people said it seems to get quieter as you get on it more and it does seem to. There is also a drone at 2000 RPM although its not awful and can be covered up by having the stereo on. The Borlas had no drone whatsoever. The tips are not welded on which allows you to adjust them unlike the Borlas which stuck out too far and couldn't be moved. The tips are also much smaller than the Borlas. Installation was pretty easy with a lift and 2 people but doing it on the ground would not be too fun since we had to remove the hanger brackets from the car to get the old mufflers out. It took about an hour to do the whole thing.

  Magnaflow RTR Mufflers Exceeded My Expectations

  After listening to countless exhaust videos, I decided to try the Magnaflow RTR mufflers. I have a FRPP X-pipe and I did not want the raspy sound that the typical Coyote 5.0L exhibits. The idle sound is incredible with the FRPP ProCal II calibration. People cannot believe the motor is stock. There is no drone at 2000 rpm and the sound reminds me of a 1965 Ford Indy V8 on acceleration. I could not be happier with these mufflers. I did swap out the black RTR tips for a custom polish tip. I prefer polished tips.

  Sounds Awesome

  i had questions before i bought that. soon as it arrives, i had no chance to wait so i put them on the car to hear what is sounds like. it was what i want... but also i suggest you to put boss302 side exhausts... also it is not so easy to install... That's why you should take it too muffler place...

  Very Deep Sound

  These mufflers have a very deep sound. Pretty loud with my off road H pipe and Lethal over axle pipes.... But I like loud! While they are loud in this configuration, they are not even close to the ridiculously loud Roush "mufflers" that these are replacing. The Roush's were great until the cats got removed... Then I had to go with a chambered muffler, and so far I like these!!

  Ready to Rock

  This axleback exhaust is great. I received it for Christmas, and had it installed a few days later. It is pricey for an axleback, but well worth it. On a cold start, it is loud then quiets to a deep rumble. It has almost no drone, a bit more than stock around 60-70 mph. Sounds like a V8 should, much better than the factory exhaust, and the black coating is an added bonus.
