Smile Magnaflow Highflow Cats Installed with Vid

Finally got my Magnaflow high flow cats put on! I had the shop take off the 2 pre cats and the 2 regular cats and replace them with 2 high flows, also raised the tips and ran them out the sides behind the wheels, new tips are 3 1/2" stainless steel so they wont rust. it is alot louder than it was before but to me it is the perfect amount of sound, not to loud and not to quiet, oh Yea the muffler is a DI/DO 2 1/2" with built in X-Pipe, I am going to post the link to the vid because im not sure how to post the vid on here, let me know what you think!!

Thanks 00f-150!I guess you could say 9" in the back and about 10 or 11" up front with the torsion bars cranked up a little, I need bigger tires but gas is bad enough right now and the tires that are on now have alot of tread left on them, new tires, wheels and gears will be the next mods but it will be awhile

Nice man!! they look/sound great!!

I spent the extra $50 too for stainless. After a friend of mine just got chrome his rusted almost 2 months after getting them. I've had my stainless for almost 7 months with no rust at all!

Thanks Fellows!!! I dont know how accurate my Edge proggrammer is on Average miles per gallon but it went from 12mpg to 15mpg which is usually pretty close to right so from that perspective I think it was worth it

Did you order those from Magnaflow directly? I'm not sure which are more like an oem replacement and which are considered high-flows.
btw sounds/looks great.

Thanks fellows!, I cant remember where I ordered the cats from its been almost a year since I bought them, they are high flow cats I do know that, the muffler I ordered from Hottexhaust, I think I might have ordered the cats from there to like I said its been awhile ago since I bought them, I wish I had got them put on before now though but man I`m telling you what this truck sounds perfect to me and I`ve heard alot of F150s but to me this is the perfect combination of sound and deep tone all in one the video just doesnt do it justist if you could just hear it in person it sounds so much better

Do you know if they are off-road or street-legal? Sorry to keep asking, but I'm looking to purchase some.
