Not sure, your before tire sure gives you a hell of an advantage, and your smaller pre-cats. Its pretty close. If anything well mines louder on the left side

lol. My friend who scraps said I will most likely get $75 each for them, so I'll be doing that soon. Not sure on that one, but my rear cats are pretty big and heavy, and got platnum in them, so it should be a good hunk of change.

So you have true dual Super 44s? I never heard an F150 with that setup, do you have a video available? I would really like to hear it!

No right now I have a dual in dual out 40 series dumped.

Eventually I am going to get headers then do the true dual super 44s. At least that's the plan for now.

ya I wish it wasn't a wish list! The headers may come next year sometime but the supercharger is a long term wish.

I just blew a bunch of money on the wheels, 38's and 3" body lift. Still in the process of getting the tires

Well the wait is worth it in the long run. Gives you time to do more research and plan ahead if anything

Well i've driven about 60 some miles since we pulled the rears out. Oh man I absolutely love it!!! Start ups in parking lots, its got such a deep loud growl, that fades to a deep toned pop, then a smooth clear deep idle. Accelerations from a stop echo through the areas nicely, with that deep rich Magnaflow tone, with alot more aggression than it had before, aaaannnddd, coasting down a hill that started leveling out, I heard the downshift! I can hear it much more inside now, its not annoying, it sounds perfect. The right amount of resonance! And no CEL. Glad I did this.

Thanks man. No loss what so ever, cant exactly say I feel an increase, but there is supposed to be a minor torque increase by doing this. Doing a gas mileage check now, I filled up today and we'll find out soon.

Sounds Good Darren. Thanks for always looking out. I really like the way you describe the tone that you are getting

No problem man. If you didn't notice I put a Magnaflow Performance Exhaust decal on my left rear window. Since my system is an attenion getter I would like to represent the Magnaflow name

Cant wait for work so I can drive it again

Replied to you in the video, I believe its regular, its not cheap aluminized and its not stainless. My last trucks exhaust surface rusted, didn't eat into the pipes like it did on the Flowmasters.
