[QUOTE="ANGREY, post: 15743889, member: 188865"] The coyote is the best cross plane motor Ford has ever produced. It's light years ahead of the old modular, even the 4V. But for some reason, Ford went back to a flat head firing order and in MY OPINION it makes it sound AWFUL. Not just bad, but AWFUL. I've probably watched 10x more exhaust videos than everyone reading this thread combined. I've obsessed and obsessed over it (as I'm doing my exhaust now). You'd think that on a similar displacement motor, of similar design it would produce a similar exhaust tone (with the same style of exhaust or essentially the same paramters). WRONG. You can take what was a very beautiful sounding exhaust system on previous mustangs and put it on a new coyote with the flathead firing order and it sounds horrible. In fact I searched and searched and could barely find any newer GT exhaust vids that didn't make me want to vomit. And I'm a car guy. I love certain sounding exhausts on Vets and LS motors, old 2V and 4V modular, the pushrods....tons of cars out there that with the right combination, sound awesome. I've found one, 1, ONE 2015+ exhaust video of a coyote GT that didn't sound deplorable. There's just something about the secondary pulse pattern that makes it sound terrible. Again, these are all personal preference opinions. But I'll tell you I'm not alone. I went digging because I was puzzled and on dozens of sites (including this one) you can dig up threads discussing this very issue. The reason I brought it up is because I was concerned that a particular brand of exhaust wouldn't sound right or that maybe the company went "bad" or something because even though it sounds wonderful on previous mustangs it sounds like complete dog shit on newer GTs, then I just came to realize it wasn't/isn't just them. It's all exhaust sounds awful on the new firing order. [/QUOTE]
