Does it give any audible drone now? Highway speeds high gear? Curious if that was its only purpose.
Nope nothin, I live in the mountains with some long steep grades and can’t hear anything different

Sounds like a cross between a John Deere tractor and a Homelite chainsaw.

Good God fellas, you think that sounds good?

Not since the 70's.

What are you growing in your garden that requires use of a weed wacker and a chain saw:question:

Interesting how the resonator delete made no difference on the ranger. Did you feel any slight performance increase?

Also, that mustang sounds more like a honda then my honda with a 4-cylinder turbo.

I was surprised as well. Although when I talked to my muffler shop he told me it likely wouldn’t change it much or at all. And he was right.

It’s hard to tell any power difference.

Ditto, that is what my Fruitland Idaho shop told me, and He advised to remove the 21/2 and 21/4 exhaust pipes that reduced the 3 " pipe from the motor and replace them with 3" so the exhaust pipe was 3 " front to back and to add a resonator so, I did that and the sound is throaty almost like my 5.7 hemi ; anymore power; maybe , all I know it sounds more like a truck than a car now. The muffler was 3" in and out to begin with and Ford reduced that 3" down to the figures above , at least that is what Barry at Speed O motive told me or that is what I understood.

After driving a Diesel for years I wanted a quiet truck. I am in luck Ford provided the perfect sound. The question that I still have and was talked about in the past is. Did Ford put some artificial noise in these trucks? I dont think anybody identified where it would have come from or if it was there.

U just can't get an 8 cyl w/headers sound out of a 4 banger especially running a turbo. Yea doc, I'm 1 of those (67 yr) old guys. Hahaha!
