Gumbal’s sound compilation lines up nine different Mustangs — from a widebody Alphamale build to Vaughn Gittin Jr.’s 7.1-liter RTR car to an 850-horsepower Shelby GT500 SVT — and lets their exhaust notes settle who’s actually loudest. The answer surprises even viewers who think they know these cars. A 2.3-liter EcoBoost even manages to steal a moment. Listen and see if you agree with the ranking.
The Mustang RTR is Vaughn Gittin Jr.’s production interpretation of the car he drifts for a living, and its tiers differ by considerably more than badges. The 472-horsepower figure attached to the GT comes from Ford Performance hardware rather than a third-party tuner, which is precisely why the factory warranty survives the upgrade intact. Read on for what separates Spec 1 from Spec 2, and why the suspension work may matter more than the power does.
