V Force ???

I have a 2007 FX4 5.4 and have been asking local shops the price and product they have. One sells v force and the other sells aftermarket magnaflow. I want a good aggressive sound. I did hear another F150 with the vforce and it sounded good, but I don't know enough about ANY of the name brands to make the best decision. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, JH

What do you want to do? Full exhaust, cat back, muffler swap? How much do you want to spend?

You can also just order a muffler online cheaper.

I was quoted $280 for cat backs, split rear with rolled tips, v force. The truck I heard sounded real good. I could order a muffler online but would rather have it welded than clamping it on. This shop paints all welds. I was just wondering about the quality of vforce compared to the other aftermarket brands. JH

Also, the aluminized steel I know isn't the quality of stainless. What's the time frame we're looking at for aluminized to last?

It is just an other knock off Flowmaster muffler. Nothing special. What I meant earlier, was you can order a muffler that you want, then have the shop weld that muffler in for you.

As said, V-Force is a knock off brand flowmaster, specifically the 10 series and 40 series styles.

$300 tops is what you should look to spend. As long as you pressure wash your under body in winter you will have no corrosion worries. The only issue would be the baffle plates leaking and rattling in the knock off flowmaster.. Common issue after awhile.
