i have the same kit on my car and i dont have a youtube channel. I have full exhaust without cats, cams and corsa mufflers so i can barely hear my 2.3 tvs over my exhaust at WOT. I am certainly not deaf.... funny thing to me is.... as an owner of the kit, I actually have experiance in what im talking about.... i can almost guarantee that you have NEVER in your life even been in a gt500 with this mod. So im curious why you even have an opinion on it. This is what i was referring to when i said the gt500 community is funny sometimes exactly..... it is funny how people have such strong opinions over things they dont have any experience in


You can "garuntee" alot huh? All of that is moot. I dont need a $150 rubber tube plumbed into my cabin to hear my blower. Call my old school. Function > Form.
You can justify it all you want. I still think its lame. Esp on a 1khp car.

you... you realize rice is an acronym right?
Race
Inspired
Cosmetic
Enhancment

All 2011-2017 5.0s come with sound tubes from the factory so I guess that makes ford king of the ricers lol. Some of us like our loud exhaust and want the blower whine too, I cant hear my whipple at all over my exhaust. Now ricer would be what BMW does where the sound speakers in the car literally play a synthetic exhaust note inside the car while driving. Nothing wrong with amplifying mechanical noises what we all like to listen too. I agree it is pricey for what it is and you could totally do it way cheaper with parts from home depot, but also if you're sweating $150 in the performance car hobby you're gunna have a bad time.

So you agree it's rice. And the Coyote sound tube bullshit is rice which is why its usually the first thing removed.

you guys read into this too much. It was partially a joke. I think its stupid as hell mod and not even a mod. If he likes it so be it, but he did it for clicks. lol
He is probably deaf though if he cannot hear that blower. lol

Not a joke. It's a gay ass mod and he did it solely for clicks.

Wack AF.

Wait wait wait.... you gonna tell me, that enhancing the cars sound is rice? The REAL car sound???

Also, clickbait or not, that is irrelevant... we aren’t talking about the value of the content.

I’m not saying I’d do the mod, but not gonna pass judgement on someone enhancing real sound out of their car.

Think about it.

I recently installed the Foster Sound Tube mod on my 14 GT500. Install was super simple and it really adds some sound to make things more exciting. Below is a video of install and sound clips. It took less than an hour to install it.

My ported gen1 blows your whine away
Another ricer mod........

Ford's not above doing that either. Apparently they use that faux-pas-ology in certain F-150 Ecoboosts. I wouldn't be shocked if there were other models.

Yeah, they're doing it on the 2.3 on the Rangers too.

Lately I’ve just been feeling like I cant really hear my cars exhaust as much as I’d like. I’ve come up with a very economical solution to this. I present “Andy’s exhaust mod”.

I'll give you one better.

Last week for work i had a 2019 Navigator as a rental. That truck has the 3.5 EB v6. Oddly enough, it makes v8 muscle car sounds as you accelerate making you think the truck is a damn v8.

The world's gone mad.


And BTW... youre saying you dont pass judgement on SVTP? Stop already.

Papa, but we ain’t talking about fake sounds. Right? We are talking about making a real sound be a little more audible.

I don’t see the problem with making real sounds more audible. I really don’t. Had OP, riggged his stereo to omit sound waves to mimic sc whine, I’d be all in with you. But I fail to see how this is different than changing mufflers.

The Navi you are talking about would be an example of rice. OPs mod, not so much.

While I could do without alot of the extra shit in the big time Youtuber's videos, its just what it is now. You ever see how people go after Itsjusta6 like he is a ****ing rockstar at meets? Its nuts.
I have a channel as well. Very small, little bullshit, no clickbait. I just do installs and pass the info along on good or shitty products with MY TASTE. If people don't like it, no big deal. I just know when i cannot find a video and shooting blind, I then make a video so the next guy doesn't need to struggle as I did


PS: He was one of the FIRST non shop cars in the nation with a Gen3R. So its not like its a tune and pulley only car

At the end of the day they are probably getting a lot of shit for free and the work done for free for clickbait so I guess I'm the dumbass at the end of the day paying full price and all that and waiting for a tune thats remote and not fine tuned in person.......lol
