I have a '97 f-150, 4.6L x-cab lariat.
K&N fuel injection performance kit.
(placed in a couple of truck shows in stock class)
I am tring to decide on an exhaust system to instal. Many of my friends have flowmaster with 3" pipe, I am leaning towards the flowmaster, but i am open to other opinions.
I'm looking for a good sound and a little kick in the butt for performance.
Any ideas will be apriciated.

Thanks all.

 

Gibson Super Truck gets my vote for the 97 ext. cab Lariat. You would love it.

 

Thanks cphilip. What is your opinion of the swept side from gibson? I don't know if i like the exit in front of the tire.
Anyone else have an opinion?

You will not get quite the "look" for show with the side swept and you will get a little more sound and performance out of the Super Truck. I have had no problems with the in front of the wheel install on my wheels. It has been stock on mine since birth 5/96. If you will notice the Roush and the new Lightning are in front of the wheel with double chrome outlets like the Super Truck.
