loud idle

hey i was wondering what would have to be done to a 2000 f150 5.4 to make it have a loud idle. i love when a truck is on and you can hear it "chug" when it idles. i was wondering what would have to be done to mine to do that???

???? do u have stock exhaust? put on a bullet or a loudmouth, youll get a nice "chug" from those. you wont get a loud idle from these trucks, compared to a ram, titan, or silverado.

Get a flowmaster 50 series if you want some rumble and the 40 series mufflers for varying levels of loudness

No muffler, just straight pipe it and dump before the axle, pointing down at the ground. I like the idle, kinda get annoyed at high rpms.

No muffler swap on these trucks will give you that nice, lopey, musclecar idle...
