New Raptor owner

[Al Daher]

Hello all, just purchased my Raptor a few months ago. I’ve modded every vehicle I’ve owned. I enjoyed the changes they made mostly although I feel there is a trade off in a lot of these parts, for example they made something better but something worse at the same time. So I figured this time around I’d buy a sweet ride from the factory and not touch it. Well, it only took 10,000 miles for me to break down and I purchased a catback exhaust. I went with a Borla ATAK and I wish I didn’t. Sounds good at idle but that’s it. It’s obnoxiously loud and made me feel like I just downgraded my truck. I know they make a resonator but I’m scared to invest more in something I may not like still.
So two days later it came off and I’m back to stock where I’ll stay.
Anyone need an exhaust?
I’ll cut u a good deal on it

I have 5500 miles on mine and I’m catching the bug to get some exhaust, and was thinking about getting the same exhaust but now you’ve slowed me down.

Hard decision to make from just watching videos
I would say I liked the sound at idle just too loud for me under any type of load or getting on it. Most said it was most aggressive exhaust so I should have listened there. If my truck wasn’t stock it would probably fit in better

Welcome and congrats.
Since I got away from cable TV I usually watch documentaries and or reviews. I saw a review that did the exact same thing as you and went back to stock. I mean really, its not a V-8 so replicating that isn't gonna happen and where I live, there's enough *** go carts on the road that almost sound the same as some of the Raptor exhaust systems and I don't want that.
