If you want to sound stock and sound loud at the switch of a cap, a cut-out will make you happy.

If you want a good low yet loud tone that will sound clear and respectful, Magnaflow muffler.

i have both a magnaflow muffler and a cutout before the muffler and after the cats. i have a good with it caped and when i need it a lil louder i uncap it and i love it. sounds good and deep. doesnt sound crappy when i take off or when im at higher rpms. it did when i use to have the v6 but now with the 5.4 it sounds great.

Just curious, WHY? Performance gains are negligible. They typically sound horrible. I'm just curious is all.
