I'll do a little leg work and see what I can find out. Very curious to know if the factory muffler has been replaced.

We both know there's no way you get that sound from the factory exhaust.

Sorry Ernie. I should clarify. I was referring only to the muffler. According to Chris, the stock headers were swapped out for the Ford Racing long tubes. I just want to know if the factory muffler was indeed swapped out and for what.

I may be wrong but I don't think it's possible to change the exhaust note that profoundly with just the long tube headers. I went the opposite direction and left the stock headers and installed FR exhaust.

Turns out he is on the GT Forums. I assumed he was a Detroit native, but he's from Ohio?
Exhaust is technically 'Ford Racing Headers' but not just the long tubes. He has the 'infamous' Ford Racing M9430-GTX, aka "rear exit headers". Long tubes into small collector mufflers (that don't really do any muffling), and straight out the back. Essentially straight pipes, no cats.

So, he must be running a tune as well to shut off that O2 sensor. BTW, he also has aftermarket gauges

Thanks again for the vid, Chris.

BTW, man, can you shred

Wow, excellent work Ed! You would make a great detective. Thank you for clarifying the setup. I got a kick out of the shred comment, thank you!
