I have a 2000 Ford Excursion with the 5.4 Triton that I am interested in adding the Ravin catback exaust to. My question is the stock system has a 3in pipe from the cat back to the muffler.Do I need to replace it or can I just add the Ravin muffler? Will I get the same performance? Also what series would you reccomend?
Thanks,Michael

 

You can simply replace the muffler with a Ravin. That would be easy, simple, quick, and effective.

Most buy a cat back "system" to increase pipe diameter (I have done this when adding headers for example), and/or get a "bolt on" custom fit or change in design, and/or because that is what is sold by a specific manufacture as a package. Others may add to this.

IMO for an Excursion a Z55 model. If your interested in adding performance I would also suggest you look into air intake systems. Most popular is the K&N Gen II and the Air Raid.

You may want to consider the Z77 series, they were developed for the SUV's. They are supposed to have little to no tone, but the drastically improve performance. If you want a little tone, try the 55's and for a loud mello tone try the 33's. It is all up to you.
