MRT, the engineering performance company based in Plymouth, Michigan, expands 2020+ Ford Explorer ST exhaust line-up by adding a new Catback exhaust that improves exhaust sound and manages unwanted drone – the Explorer ST Elite Series Cat Back Exhaust.

“Sometimes you just don’t want an always present, take no prisoners exhaust that everyone notices but you DO want performance sound, louder than stock and on-demand, refined performance.  MRT collaborated with Pro Sound Innovation to bring a unique muffler design and sound only available on MRT premium exhaust systems.  It’s true – the 2020+ Explorer ST Elite Series has achieved the perfect blend of performance AND performance SOUND for the Ultimate experience.”

-Scott Hoag, MRT Engineering.

Performance Sound Engineering

MRT engineered the 2020+ Explorer ST 3.0L V6 EcoBoost performance cat back in T304 Stainless Steel 2.5” tube with 4” quad tips and aggressive dual rear exit exhaust system that is sure to Get Noticed.  The Elite Series builds on the refined, on demand performance sound of the MRT Sport Touring series and delivers the aggressive acceleration note of MRT’s Extreme sound series with a LOWER loudness rating. 

Team MRT collaborated with Pro Sound Innovation acoustic sound engineers to create a muffler design that delivers a performance sound and maintains package size while managing unwanted resonance tones.  The unique solution created a refined, comfortable sound in normal driving with aggressive performance sound under wide open throttle.  The design was engineered to create essentially no back pressure so all the performance goes to the tires.  It’s the perfect balance of performance and refinement.

Get Noticed

The Explorer ST MRT Elite Series Catback is for the enthusiast who wants a neighborhood friendly exhaust sound and an aggressive Get Noticed tone that isn’t unpleasant inside or outside the vehicle.  It’s the perfect aftermarket exhaust mod for the experienced auto enthusiast who wants to remember the primal roar coming from the tail pipes balanced with a sense of social harmony through the neighborhood.  Your passion for performance….all Grown Up!
