I'm looking for a nice deep muscle car sound that has those nice tone sounds. I dont want it to sound like those annoying old honda car nor to be extremely loud. I dont want drone noise. I also live in California so I cant really do much because of smog reasons. I'm stuck between these 2 but its hard and not the same hearing on audio compared to in person. I've had corsa sports before and loved the sound in a different mustang I had same year. One of my friends recommended Roush im just not sure if I would like it. I heard that roush has raspy sound and I hope it doesn't mean that annoying bothering sound.

It very subjective. I personally like and have these.

The coyote in and of itself is naturally raspy. The goal would be to get some mufflers to keep that characteristic tame. I agree with Jackson. 11-12 GT500 mufflers sound good on coyote cars. Friend of my fathers has a 14 GT with those mufflers and it sounds good. I’ve also heard they don’t drone at all.

Absolutely zero drone, and quite loud under heavy throttle. Not obnoxious, but definitely gets attention.

I have the Roush on my '12 Vert. It is a bit raspy at higher RPM's but it has a nice deep sound to it, not really loud, just deep.

I am also in CA ... where they have limits on what you can and cannot do to your car. If you are close by 94523, I would be happy to meet you and show you what it sounds like.

I have the Ford Performance Sport axle back made by Borla on my 2013 GT. M-5230-MGTLA. They are the best for me. Great sound and no drone.

I have the Ford Performance Touring axle back by Borla, which are 50 state legal. I have a convertible and they are perfect. I also replaced the resonater with an X pipe.

Have the Roush axle backs on mine with an addition of the Boss Quad exhaust. Can be obnoxious at WOT, but under normal driving it sounds great, with plenty of growl and popping at deceleration. Get plenty of complements on the deep throaty sound. Love it and would not have anything else.

Some of the GT crowd favor GT500 axle backs..

My mother has the Roush set up on her 11 GT. It sounds good. I like it. It has a nice deep tone to it. It is too loud if you don't have stock gears in your differential. My mom was roaring down the freeway. We had to put the stock GT gears back in.
I'm an OG-OE GT500 guy.....had them on both S197s. On my 2012 MT car, it sounded like the the Bullitt soundtrack slightly muted. On my more mild AT 2014, it's still good but, you aren't in its sound range as much DD.
