I just picked out what wheels and tires im wanting to get for my f150 and now im trying to decide on exhaust. I don't really want a mellow sounding exhaust i want it to be loud, but i dont want it to loud to where if i had a person riding with me i couldnt have a conversation with that person but i still want it to where if im just crusing along it will be loud and not have to step on it to be loud.

I dont know if i should get a hole new exhaust system or what could i do to the stock exhast to get it loud. Any replies are appreciated.

 

What year, and motor?

 

Its an 04 with the 5.4.
Idk if this would matter at all but it has the 3.55 gears instead of the 3.73's like alot of trucks have.

 

Ok you have 4 cats so you should be able to run true duals straights with an x-pipe and get the sound you are looking for without being too loud. If you want or have to have a muffler I would recommend the dynomax bullet, it sounds great and is loud.

 

alright well how much would it probably cost to get the true duals with an x-pipe?

 

Flowmaster Super 44.

 

yeah a si/do super44 and then some high flow cats will sound good. thats exactly what i have, it sounds sweet.

 

Mine was 225$ out the door.

 

If you want cheap, just run true duals x pipe. Or get rid of the cats and just run pre cats, and then super 44.

 

Which would probably sound more aggressive??

 

Straights will be louder and more aggressive. Check my sig to see what straights sound like, yours will be quieter because you have 4 cats and I only have 2.

 

well if i went with the striaghts how big of pipe should i run, a 3", 2.5", or a 2" pipe?

 

2.5" no matter what you run.

 

if i eliminated 2 of the cats would that give me a louder sound

 

Yes, removing the rear 2 cats will make it louder and add some power.
