A friend asked me, I want to upgrade the exhaust on my stock 2011 GT, what do you recommend? Immediately a few names came to mind, SLP, Flowmaster, Borla, Roush, Magnaflow, etc, but I deal mostly with 99-04 GT's currently, so I wasn't quite sure just what I liked on the new 5.0s. So after doing some research online and in person, I came to this conclusion, if you're just going for an axle back exhaust upgrade, this is what I would definitely recommend.

Check out the part at AmericanMuscle.com they are truly an incredible company with outstanding customer service.
Other viable options for this Mustang Model are the gt500 axleback, slp, american thunder, and borla. But the Roush is my number one choice.

Mustang Exhaust V6 Edition
This is just my opinion, my views, my experiences, however all of the above are accurate and usually right.
So you have a v6 and want to step your sound up? Well this is what I would do depending on your budget..
Low budget divorced duals from a local shop w/ thrush welded mufflers
Medium budget o/r h or prochamber to thrush welded or flow 40s original
High budget long tubes to o/r shorty h to thrush welded w/ a lumpy cam
These are in my opinion the best bang for buck, and I haven't heard a prochamber on the last setup so it sound great, or not so much. However now for some exhaust clips..
Low Budget (can even re-use gt take-off stock pipes weld in muffler )
High Budget
Note you can always sub in hi-flow cats if you need or want to, the sound difference is usually slightly quieter a little more tamed
In my opinion the biggest don't on a v6 exhaust setup is an x-pipe, the car is already too raspy and adding an x-pipe just intensifies it.
Thanks to Synester06Gates for the great videos, it's actually very hard to get a quality exhaust video, but he definitely has the setup down.
