I have a 97 F150 flareside with stock exhaust. The motor is a 4.6.
I just got my 6" lift and 35" tires, so while its up on a lift this weekend, I would like to make it at least sound like its got some b@lls.

A local shop is going to make the pipes, so I just need to tell them what kind of muffler. If you were in my predicament, what would you put on it? I only want to spend the money one time, so is a Magnaflow going to please me if I want some real noise? Seems that Fords are some of the quietest trucks on the road and I would like to change that up. What muffler should I go with and what part number am I going to tell them to order?

Note: the truck is a part time vehicle, so Im not opposed to a slightly obnoxious loud exhaust and I plan to have the tips exit in front of the rear wheels as they do now.

 

For a direct bolt-on kit I like the Ford Racing exhaust (made by Borla). I got mine for $274 shipped and it has the dual side exits in front of the rear tire. It has a nice tone but not overbearing.
