It's easy to see why Bill can appreciate Roush's new cat-back, but would you rock this exhaust on your Stang or keep goin' stock?
Here's what Bill thinks about this monster:
Right away, any enthusiast knows that stock doesn't give your Mustang any personality, and one of the best ways to make statement is with an aftermarket exhaust. So it's no surprise that compared to stock sound, this kit makes a significant impact on your pony.
Now you should know, this is one of the loudest exhausts that we've tested on the '18, but damn does it sound good.
Getting passed the sound deadening barrier of the 2018, Roush's new cat-back is raspy with an iconic high-pitched sound when you get on it, and the growl at idle you're going to get is hands down one of the most aggressive sounding beasts on today's market.
Looking at the construction, we've got corrosion-resistant 304 stainless steel, mandrel bends, and race-inspired styling. This is long-lasting quality. Exactly what I expect from the brand.
Speaking of the race-inspired style, this exhaust looks tight on the 2018 Fastback GT Mustang without the Factory Active Exhaust Option, and will be right at home for someone that wants an aggressive race-car feel.
As usual, the cat-back installation is very streamlined, and before you know it, you'll be back on the road in no time.

Shout out to Ford. Making the stock exhaust so easy to remove. 2 clamps and 2 bolts was their wink to the consumer.
No kidding haha. I wish they put another clamp after the stock resonator for axle-back installs, but cutting the pipe isn't too bad.
I’m putting these on my car this summer with a JLT cold air intake and a tune. I can’t wait to hear it!
Hey Bill just checked out this video sounds just like my car and yeah this exhaust is perfect loud when you want it to be quiet when you need it to be
Just got this w the black tip option. Couldn’t be happier. Trying to address questions i had. I can cruise into work w/out getting fired but when I want it, people have told me they hear me over a mile away coming in. My brother has an 09 challenger 5.7 cammed tuned with headers and straight pipes all the way back, THIS is louder at wot. And its GOOD sound, something I was worried about over some of the cheaper loud ones (mbrp race for example). Another note, i drove a 2016 with roush axle back and an xpipe (idk if it was also roush) and that one just didn’t feel like it could breathe, whereas the 18 catback feels like direct power into the air lol. When installing make sure the kink in the xpipe is passenger side or you’ll get to the mufflers before realizing it won’t fit lol. Installed on jack stands.
Still the best sounding 👌
Really sounds amazing
I kinda think this sounds better than the corsa exteme. I may be biased because I had the axle back on my 2015. The Corsa is kinda scary loud and the flyby with the roush exhaust sounds so much better in my opinion.
That with test pipes, rousch exhaust and a tune with a rousch intake ... wow
personal notes 0:40 tools 1:00 factory removal 1:26 install
Stock it. As you said it’s very popular. Rock your own taste. Don’t be one with the crowd. I myself love how Roush Sounds. But everyone and their dog has that exhaust. I’m running pypes axel back, resonator replaced with pypes pipe bomb and kooks headers. Extremely loud! Oh and off road H pipe
2011 Mustang GT 5.0
U should try in your garage on a cold morning hahaha I do it everyday thats our family alarm ⏰ 😄 😅
Hey guys I recently just put this exhaust and it screams. Absolutely beautiful sound I love it
210Muscle just ordered the exaust did you have any issues with it throwing codes? And how loud is it in person.honestly want my car to scream!
you’re so lucky, can’t wait till i’m older and have more money so I can scream with this thing
Nice video!!!
Got this with an X pipe and is AWESOME.
i would love to hear how this sounds with an H-pipe and long tube headers. Would love to see if it has that old school muscle car sound to it.
I’m sure it would! The setup is already a deeper option and the h pipe will definitely help it rumble. Not sure how headers affect it tone wise. But yeah throw a cam with it and it will sound beautiful at idle-wot.
Does Roush sell a cat back to axle kit for those of us that have the Roush axle back ?
I have this exhaust on my 18 gt and I bought Texas speed catless long tube headers 1-7/8 would this setup fit without buying any connection pipes?
Is this basically the equivalent of a res delete midpipe and axle backs on stock piping? Or is the actual kit bigger piping than factory?
Are the mufflers themselves the same as the 15-17s I want to swap my exhaust over would I only need tips?
Hey Cj will that work with the corsa headers with the connection pipe that comes with the corsa header?
Hey just purchased a 2020 pp1 Gt with active exhaust, would this fit it without using the active exhaust features or is their a roush cat back with active exhaust ?
@cjponyparts i have this exact same exhaust system but i feel like mine sits to low the ground and sometimes can hear it hit when going over pot holes. My car is stock ride height as well idk just feel like it was defective or something
Rock it!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Does it really crackle and pop like that ?? Or is it because your in a garage ? I have a xpipe and active exhaust factory , do u think its worth it to buy the axle back?
I know it’s going to be a different tone, but how would this compare to Flowmaster Outlaw Axle-Back exhaust with an H-Pipe resonator delete? Which one is louder
Is this louder than the Borla atak catback w/o active exhaust
I had roushes before corsa xtremes, and while they are equally loud at WOT, I cannot hear my xtremes cruising around town, and it's a little underwhelming. The roush were always snappy and exciting, and made the car fun to drive even "normal" because they echoed off everything. Xtremes are a better tone, so it's a toss up. I might go back to Roushes.
Its a tough choice for sure, they're all great
completely agree with this statement. I have a 2018 GT and got extremes almost immediately and I was underwhelmed by the lack of sound at cruising speeds. WOT is great but I don't need a ticket every week because I have to get on my 2 grand exhuast just to hear it. I'm keeping Corsa Double x and swapping in Roush Axle Backs
@@alexodonnell5587 I have a 2019 gt and im torn between a corsa or roush. Let me know how that double x sounds with the roush
Jake Forster the roush with the crosa double x is phenomenal. The sound is slightly deeper than the Corsa under 2000 rpm and it snaps and pops more on decel. WOT is insane just like the corsa but under 2000 the roush is still loud and you can hear it. a slight tap of the throttle and it roars. I love it but it's definitely something a pro should instal because of the custom welding that would need to be done to fit the 3in and 2.5 inch pipping. so yes this exhaust is amazing and i will not be switching back to the extreme mufflers
Would it sound the same with a Roush Axle back + X Pipe?
Head turner?
Would it be the same case for a 2018 10 Speed?
Witch one is louder the roush ? Or the extreme?
does this exhaust pass state inspection tests in texas?
I been thinking about cat back borla ATAK a lot lately now that I saw this I can’t decide between them
Francisco Santos I have this set up. You won’t be sorry
Been wanting to hear the roush with a resonator delete. Sounds nice. I have an H-pipe with stock mufflers. Love it, but about ready for a change. Ready to pull trigger on an axle back soon.
Keoni Lew not trying to talk u out of anything with Roush as they make a great exhaust, but I was just in your situation a few months ago. I have a 2017 and wanted a new catback. I listened to I'll bet a 100 videos on RUclips. Roush, solo performance, and corsa were my top 3 choices. In the end I pulled the trigger on a corsa extreme catback. It was a bit pricey but the fit in finish was great, and honestly I couldn't be more pleased.
jrvbamafan1 The Corsa setups sound great also. Borla wrote on a forum I follow that they are releasing axle backs for 2018 soon. All 3 companies making cool stuff. Tough to go wrong really. 🤙🏾
Keoni Lew yeah it really is. I don't think you'd be disappointed with any of them. I was a little nervous paying that much for a catback, but as soon as I fired it up the first time, I forgot all about it....lol. I enjoy the sound of the gt350, and ultimately the thing that led me to the corsa was it was the closest sounding exhaust to it at least imo that I could find for the 5.0s.
Can I install this on my mustang gt 2021 ?
Man I got an H pipe ony 19. In winter on cold starts it's Loud AF, I can only imagine with axle back.
Sorry in advance neighbors 😬🙂
What kind of x-pipe
I want to know. Which one sounds louder! This new Roush Cat Back. Or the Corsa Extreme? Comment below peeps who are owners. Thanks
Hey Bill awesome video! (as usual)... So what do you think would sound better on a 15 GT with the Borla switchfire X pipe ... The Roush axle backs or the Ford performance extreme axle backs? Not sure if you've tried the switchfire yet but I'm eager to know your take on it? I got it on the 15 GT convertible already and it's awesome no drone at all with a muffler delete but it's obnoxiously loud.... I want the sound more refined and clean ....so Lmk... Thanks 🤜🤛
Thanks for the compliment! We did a video on the switchback awhile pack and personally I would go with the Ford/Borla.
Better with x or h pipe?
I am real happy with my stock exhaust tone .
But I am a hundred and sixty-four years old .
What if you have the active exhaust? Do they have an option for that? How could I run roush exhaust with factory active exhaust
Manuel Prieto Roush makes active exhaust systems for the mustang. They’re significantly more expensive tho
hey bill do you know if roush is planning to make an active catback exhaust for the 2018 mustang that's already equipped with the factory active exhaust system not roushes
As far as I know there are no plans at this time.
Would you need to have the car “tuned” after this for optimum performance? And would this mod turn any dash lights on or void warranty?
I'm no expert so don't trust me 100%. Generally catback exhausts don't require a tune because you're not messing with the catalytic converter, air intake, fuel consumption or any sensors. That also means no dash lights will come on. Ford Warranties also usually only void if aftermarket parts mess with the engine, transmission and drivetrain. So modifications like ecu flashing, cams, turbos, lightened flywheels, maybe short shifters and things of that nature will void warranty. Dealers don't ususlly mind exhausts, wheels and coilovers, ya know, basic mods.
Anybody found a way to make the Ecoboost sound closer to something like this ?
Khin Ninson there’s literally no way you could make an eco boost sound like this.
Is this legal in Michigan?
I ordered this exhaust through the link in the description and It definitely wasn’t a good experience ordering online, first I pay 100$ extra for shipping so I could get it sooner, then one of the packages makes it on the date it was supposed to while the other package gets separated and hadn’t moved from a location for 3 days straight, then I sit on hold for at least 15 Minutes everytime I try to contact support, like the site and the videos and I know they can’t help what happens after it’s in UPS possession but I hope my problem gets sorted out
AccidentalJoker hey did you ever end up getting your package on time?
Can you install this with an active exhaust system already on the car and get rid of the active exhaust?
How’s the interior drone In highway and city?
Very minimal, usually only the systems with a heavy deep tone have drone issues.
What size is the piping on this catback? 2.5 or 3? Thanks!
Kurtage77 I think Roush said 2.5
3 inches
Would you guys prefer the roushe over the AWE cat back? I’m so torn between the 2
roush for me👍
Hey bill will this sound the same if I don’t have the bending pipes? I bought my x pipe first and just want to add the roush axle backs do you think it will sound the same or no?
SickJose yes it will sound the same
CJ Pony Parts thanks Bill appreciate it!!
Is there a version that works with 2018 active exhaust?
Coming soon
Is there a difference soud ? between the active exhaust and this one? or it's only that you can to switch between the quite to sport
Yes
@@Supremeyaree better to give full answer. Instead of keywords
It’s a lot louder in person
guys I need help! I'm going to buy a mustang, which one should I get the 2017 california special or the 2018 GT?
ab121b swag 2018 all the way!
17
California special is like a GT premium with extras, i like my 2016 CS.
so what did you purchase? Would like to know for when I buy one
I hate the tips this exhaust has. But the sound is awesome. I still think im leaning towards AWE touring tho...thats the best of both world tone amd volume
Anthony Justiniano the tips are definitely the worst part. Fitment was horrible as well
So let’s say I get long tubes with off road x pipe, would installing the cat back not be a problem?
angel montoya won't be
It will work fine with that setup.
What is louder between this catback vs Corsa extreme vs borla atak ??
Its a toss up. I will say the tone of the Corsa is a little higher pitched but they are pretty close volume wise. There is no ATAK for the 18 yet.
CJ Pony Parts there is an ATAK, but only for active exhaust.
Bill, I'm torn between this and the Corsa. They sound about the same to me. Maybe the Corsa is louder at idle? Which one do you like the best, and why? I like an aggressive growl, (but not too raspy) but not sure which one to go with. Can you help me out here?
Jon Revers if you want a real deep growl go for the AWE track catback sounds meaner than this and the Corsa and is slightly cheaper than booth
I’ll check it out, thanks!
I checked out some videos. It didn't seem to be much too different than stock. It was a deeper sound, maybe a little louder, but didn't seem to have as much hair on it like the Corsa or Roush systems.
Jon Revers lol are you sure you typed in the right one? It’s a muffler deleting cat back system....
Yeah, I think so. If you know of a good video, please share. I also just checked out the MBRP video. For the sale price of $799 (304 SS system) I think that might be a winner?
I can’t decide between this and the Borla extreme Ford Performance😫
Both sound pretty good. I would say the Borla would be a little lower pitched than the Roush and very similar volume.
I'm in the same predicament. I wish cj pony had idle clips of both I love the tone on the roush way more but I enjoy how ford is a bit toned down. I feel like a corsa sport is the middle ground but I'm to cheap for that. What do you recommend?
Do you guys sell this for a 2018 Mustang Ecoboost? Or something much similar as far as sound?
Thanks. Size of the tubes?
3 inch
would you recommend this on a convertible gt or is it too loud for when the top is down
if not, would an axle back be better?
Loud is really subjective. With the top down the car will be louder for sure and the Roush is on the louder side but sounds good.
Hi bill great video! What is the weight difference between the factory and roush?
The Roush uses better materials and will be louder.
@@cjponyparts will the mustang gt lose weight? If so how much
@@pacobordok6666 Minimal. maybe 2-3 lbs
@@cjponyparts ok thanks brother sounds good
Hella loud
What’s louder between this and Corsa Extreme?
Its a toss up. I will say the tone of the Corsa is a little higher pitched but they are pretty close volume wise.
How many mustangs do you own
I have one question about the 2020 Mustang GT with the 10-Speed-Auto
When i accelerate from 0-60, i would like to press the Brakepedal and Gaspedal at the same time, Rev it to 3000rpm, and release the brakepedal.
How does the gearbox react to it?
Is that bad for the gearbox?
Thanks
Your brakes will hate you for that.
I think this is how they drag race
Launch control people…
Would it be possible to use this exhaust on a 2018 eco and just change the tips?
No the system is very different but there will be an EB version coming.
How much hp could this potentially add?
Cat backs will add mostly sound, you will only get a few horsepower out of them.
CJ Pony Parts thank you
Is it legal to use these on road?
Yes they are legal since they do not mess with the factory cats
What would it sound like with longtubes?
Car Authority come check my 18 mustang GT with long tube headers instagram pristine_got_5.0
With high flow cats I think it will sound very similar, just a hair louder. With no cats it would be way too loud for my taste.
CJ Pony Parts Mine is no cats I added a resonator and it’s perfect
Imagine the final gun shot of the American Revolution... That’s what it’ll sound like
Had stainless works LT’s, o/r x and Roush AB’s on my ‘11 and idling was the only time it wasn’t obnoxiously loud. Sounded badass, cold starts could pure scare someone and I enjoyed it but it was too much. The day I was in the middle of three lanes of traffic with my windows down and I heard the reverb of my exhaust at only 3000 rpm I decided on a change 😂
Ordered mine and it’s back ordered.... I need it now 😕
YR Fitness same, it’s been several weeks since I ordered it
I feel you! Everyone is sold out it sucks lol
Hey just curious, how long did it take you to receive your exhaust? I just ordered mine on the 7th and it still says it’s back ordered.
lanny222 how long did it take for you to receive your exhaust? I just ordered mine on the 7th but it is still back ordered.
@@mr.unknown7604 have you received yours since ? Thinking about buying it
This is 3” or 2.5” ??
it's a stock headers ?
اكيد 👍🏼
Love Roush products, but they totally missed it with this muffler. It is nothing more than the previous model other than two small tips with one exiting wider than than the muffler itself. I was behind one the other day and looks silly in my opinion with one tip inset farther as nothing more than a dummy tip.
Many companies have gone that route due to the cost of redesigning a system and the space to fit a true dual output muffler.
Hey, Bill isn’t that your personal car?
charles taylor he said it was
Yes it is.
Sounds mean
Sounds alright but I want deep tone not rasp
Daniel Fuller buy an Hpipe and the roush axleback
Deaven Jefferson I wanna hear a sound clip I would definetly buy it tho
I bet someone has the set up, just look up heartthrob hpipe and roush axleback 2018 GT
