Im pretty sure i read that the steedas were rebranded borlas with a difference in internal batting material in this thread...

Or it was a similar s197 exhaust thread.
I dont know what exactly steeda had done different with there axlebacks but several members swore the 4.6 3v, longtubes,OR H, and the steeda axle backs were one of the best sounding 4.6 exhaust setups and from the couple clips i listened to it sounded mean.
Drone is supposed to be minimal but who knows. Cant really tell from video clips.
All i do know is the more i research the more indecisive i am lmao
Not necessarily true. I don't know how long it was made, or if it was made for anything other than the 2010, but my axle back looks exactly like this except with the Ford Racing logo stamped in the case:

And it is most definitely 304 stainless as I bought it used and have run it for a couple years, and have not seen a speck of rust on it.
After more digging around, I located your Ford Racing touring axle backs. Summit Racing used to sell them back in the day. Part number M-5230-MSVTC was manufactured exclusively for 2010 Shelby GT500 models for Ford Racing by Borla. Part number M-5230-MGTC was manufactured exclusively for 2010 GT models for Ford Racing by Borla. Therefore the seller who said they came off a 2010 was actually spot on. As for the reason behind the double wall tips instead of rolled edges which Borla is well known for? I suppose will never know the answer lol. I also have no clue as to why they did not include logo-embossed tips either, but it is, what it is. All I can say is that your Ford Racing Touring mufflers are authentic 2010 GT/GT500 rebranded Borlas. Also included are the Summit Racing and e-bay links with images. Anyway, hope you'll find the info provided as useful.So, that's weird. The set I bought did not have the logo-embossed tips and had double wall tips instead of rolled edge, had the hangers attached differently, logos were flipped, and the mufflers were offset/offset instead of offset/center. Again when I bought these the seller said they came off a 2010 but I wonder why so different?

Wish i had the dough right now to grab those up for my 2010..... So the ford gt500s/tourings are nolonger made?
Im going to go with either the tourings or the steeda branded stingers for the 2010.
With longtubes and catless H which do you guys think would sound better? Ive narrowed it down to those two. I like deep controlled bass loud. I dont mind a little drone just not a ton

Un-Fu*****believeable... Broke the dipstick tube off right at the block. That son of a b would not budge. Im not a small guy and pulled as hard as i could ..... Wouldnt budge. Was able to get tip of small screwdriver under the lip....then bigger screwdriver... Then prybar ... Then it sheered right off. Smfh
Thanks for doing that research! I looked all over the place after buying mine but could not find the exact model anywhere. So, interesting to know it was made for the GT500.
