I love everything about it but the exhaust is a little loud for my taste. It hauls And i love the whine of the supercharger. I'm willing to trade someone my Roush exhaust for a new factory takeoff exhaust to whomever is interested and close enough to me.

If you take the Roush exhaust off, would you have to retune the engine? Just a thought to consider.

I have a brand new 2013 takeoff with under 200 miles on it. I'll trade you and pay for shipping for both exhausts.

There you go Blake. Take this offer. It cost you nothing except to install the stock exhaust assuming you don't do it yourself.

I would check with Roush to make sure taking off their exhaust will not restrict your engine in anyway. I seriously doubt it will but ask Roush to make sure.

If its not installed from roush, might try welding in a stock or aftermarket resonator. I welded one in to tone down my roush catback and am happier now...just a thought...

Hello all. I recently purchased a white roush raptor screw and felt that the exhaust was a little loud for long trips. I purchased the stock resonator online from a Ford dealer for $160 and cut it into the roush exhaust. The installation was simple and only needed a saw, wrench and a half hour. The resonator made a big difference. The exhaust still sounds beefy the resonator just reduces some of the edge and i do not notice any change in power or drivability. FYI, I checked with roush customer service via email and they do not keep the takeoff exhausts. I also asked them if replacing resonator would cause any issues but they chose not to answer that question. Congratulations and enjoy your Roush.

I totally agree on your take of the sound and feel after adding the resonator..very glad I did it
