Loved this video ❤️ definitely worth watching a few times.

Easily the best sounding exhaust for the coyote. I find it funny that a $995 factory option costs about the same if not less than an aftermarket setup, yet sounds way better than anything aftermarket available. And the fact you can turn to quiet mode and maintain a good rapport with the neighbors is icing on the cake. If/when I get a new Mustang, it's going to have this exhaust from the factory. I've heard the Ecoboost with this exhaust, and for a 4 cylinder car, it's actually not bad. Ford hit a homerun with this setup.

both sport and track mode sound good to me i really like loud cars

4:09. Oh my God second comment in a row. The most pertinent video I've ever seen on a topic I was ever looking for thank you so very much again

[LEXCMI]

You do a great video. I see no other video like that

[stereopolice]

Thank you so very very much for this video I absolutely love it and answered my question to the T

[rwolpin]

Do the different exhaust sounds alone (all in the same mode) effect performance? (i.e. backpressure causing more or less hp) Great vid. I just got a 2022 GT with active exhaust.

[jirace]

Does the exhaust flow push the butterfly open, or is that a calibration? Seems like peak decibels would be less if that didn't open all the way.

[CommandoMaster]

So if the Mustang GT doesn't have Active Valve Exhaust, does that mean u can't change the exhaust modes?

[zenonchristodoulides]

Quick question just because to be fully clear. If your car is in normal mode and you put the exhaust mode to track then only the exhaust will be in track mode and the rest of the car stays in normal mode correct? My point is that if you put your car in track mode it will not automatically then put the whole car in track mode?

[KingZD]

What does the sport / track exhaust is similar to an aftermarket exhaust? Like straight pipe?

[Stever]

I have a 2020 GT Premium. Is there a way to save only the exhaust to Sport Mode and leave the other things in Normal Mode? I've tried using the MyMode feature and even the driver seat memory button but all to no avail. Thoughts?

[eduj]

Does it have to be premium to be able to add the option, or can it be a base GT and still add the option for the active exhaust? (2018-23)

[coerc]

Is this exhaust a lot louder than a regular 5.0 with stock exhaust

[Mr.Helper.]

Can you set it before you start the engine ? I live in condos and don’t want to wake neighbors

[aldo]

does the active exhaust change the car in any way, appearance wise?

[chrismarshall]

I didnt think this feature was available until the 2018 model? And that dash looked like the previous model???

[andrewgarcia]

I don’t have no harnesses hear for the active exhaust Can you help me or point me in the right direction. I have a 2020 gt

[scbird]

Looks like this was taken from Roush but why make it so complicated? I have the active exhaust from Roush and two simple motor valves from badlands and one simple on off switch. Quiet or loud. Way better.

[hiewy]

I thought the 2018 had the different dash. Isn't this the 2015-2017 dash ?...i didn't think they had the exhaust settings?
