I have a couple of ideas and I would like some input from you all (we don’t say y’all in Jersey).
First: Not a full cat-back exhaust yet, just something to make it sound better. CP-E xSilencer Muffler Delete Axle Back Exhaust - $400
Second: Gloss black rear panel and a Porsche “turbo” badge. Played mostly for laughs and it would be unique. - $175
Third: Tow hook kit because Ford didn’t think that anyone without a GT350 might want to take their car to the track. -$180
WHAT DO NOW?

HELL NO! YOU BEST NOT PUT THAT PARSH TURBO BADGE ON YOUR BOOSTANG SO HELP ME I WILL DECK YOU IN THE SCHNOZ!
The other two are alright but for the love of sensible and rational things, don’t put that badge on unless you’ve got a good reason. Do something with actual benefits like an intercooler. The stock one is crap even with the stock tune.

Before doing the axle back exhaust, you may want to stop by a muffler shop and see what a custom exhaust would cost. It may be cheaper than you think. A lot of ecoboost guys I know are going with a system that replaces the resonator with a muffler (usually Flowmaster), and eliminates the mufflers out back.
Your Porsche Turbo badge idea would be unique. I went with turbo badges on the fenders where the 5.0 badges usually sit.
The Tow hook is a good idea, and I keep looking at doing it, I just haven’t pulled the trigger yet. Other things keep coming up.

I’m also counting down the days until I catch the mod bug with my STi. Surely a nice catback, some sway bars, and a radio upgrade are going to be in order after I put on sticky tires. This car has also been de-spoilered and idk how I feel about that. I kind of like it for the subtlety but I’ve also always kinda liked that stupid wing.

Get a real exhaust from a reputable company or local exhaust shop.

if it’s a GT, then muffler deletes are obnoxiously loud and you shouldn’t do it. they don’t impress anyone.
if it’s an Ecoboost, then that’s a different story because the turbo kills a good bit of the noise, and the resonator will still quell drone. In fact, the (Neon) SRT-4 came w/o mufflers from the factory.

I’m not sure how the eco boost sounds with rear cans deleted but I did something similar on my tl and of course naysayers will say to get full fatback but I was looking for sound and I got it. I like it more than any full fatback system I’ve had and Since it’s NA I didn’t need power gains

Nah, we gotta go CPe. I had their intake on my FiST and it was the best.
