yea with a bunch of mods maybe so MSRG but you'll sound like a 99 Honda civic doing it ha-ha. stock for stock the R is way faster and once some tunning comes out and you can adjust the pulleys these R's are going to be rocket ships even without a Whipple. i had a 2023 eco boost raptor before this and just couldn't live with that engine note sorry.

All good, I kinda like the turbo wind up: whine. I'm runnin OEM stock exhaust on "normal" mode, and it's just fine, we live in the country, and I'd not trying to impress the locals, by loading up the countryside full of obnoxious decibels, a.k.a. an after market exhaust by bouncing off the mountains and the various valleys out here.

if you have stock exhaust and turbos, you're not beating a R MSRG sorry to say. also its not about loud it's about pitch on the exhaust note. the eco boost was louder in my opinion the R just sounds way deeper.

Agree, to disagree, different boats, for different folks. Give me a "tri" power V8's with Mercury Marine blowers: all day long, versus these six (6) stacked "500" plus + H.P. Midnight Express, or Cigarette type boats, that look like they are about to sink, based on the imbalance of the rear end of these "new age" go fast vessels.
