4". Should be standard across all popular mustang exhausts.

Same here. I like having the tips separate, made it easier to line up IMO. Mine are perfect!

A few banged knuckles and the Borlas are installed! They sound awesome!! They aren't quite as loud as I thought they would be but I only have heard them with the car idling and while driving it. I am sure they are louder from the outside perspective.

But I think I am going to go ahead and get the resonators deleted

I was wondering the same thing about the Chevys and even jeep having one but no mustang.

I didn't know that akro made an exhaust for the s197. It sounds phenomenal!

Ehh I think it sounds great, but it kinda loses that unique "Mustang" sound, it just sounds like generic "V8" sound now...

Maybe. But that clip was with the 4.6l. Not coyote.

Touché, but they sound similar with the axleback style exhaust. I've never been a fan of that. My car with muffler deletes sounds closer to my 03 GT with Bassanis, than the 05-14 GTs with Bassani axlebacks. I love the mid mufflers; they pretty much always sound better to me, no matter what brand.

Lol...I wish my muffler deletes didn't drone on the freeway, because they sound SO totally badass around town. Especially on decel. You can hear the cam and valve timing changing as the RPMs drop. So awesome!

I have Borla S-type with Res deletes. They sound nice, but they do pop a bit on decel.

Haha I'm sure they're nothing compared to mine. It snorts and pops and backfires. Funny thing is it's all stock other than 3" straight pipe deletes and Stainless Works 4" tips. The cold start is so awesome.
