Magnaflow Question

I am thinking of putting a magnaflow cat back on my 2006 F150. Looked on a couple different sites including Magnaflow's.....do they make a cat back kit for a Supercrew with the 6.5ft bed and 5.4L? All the abbreviations were a bit confusing but I don't think I saw a kit for my setup.

Any help would be appreciated.

dont get a cat back. save your money and buy the muffler(s) of your choice, tip(s) of your choice, and have them welded and fabbed to your liking by a shop.

I'm gonna have to agree with migdaddy, get it done exactly to your liking. It's usually only around $300 anyways, and you can get your cats cut while it's on the shop

I would have to agree also. Got the muffler and tips off eBay for around $170 and had a shop put everything on for $217. It all worked out great.

Not exactly. Its 50 state illegal to remove OEM cats without replacing with new cats, and illegal to modify cats with a vehicle still under warranty, and in most cases under 70,000 miles.

Also, many shops depending where you live, will not touch the cats
