Help me with my exhaust

I'm looking to do a si/do magnaflow or borla exhaust but I don't know what kind of set up would look the best. Should I get duals straight back or to the side? Then the next step is what kind of tips should I go with. Below is a set up I was leaning towards except of the round dual tips go with squared off dual ones. Tell me what you all suggest?





Here's a pic of my truck to help you all

Run a Borla Xr1 with a Y pipe and run duals off that.

The squared tips would look awesome, as will the sound of the 14" Magnaflow SI/DO.

On a black Platinum, they would look good. They aren't fully squared, the corners are curved. You cant honestly say 45's or slash cuts belong on a Platinum huh . When I get one next year I think I may go straight out with oval rolled tips.

Your neighbor sell that SuperCrew you were thinking about?

Plantinum = much better choice. If it did happen, I'd be on here everyday looking at what you've done to it!

Be unique. Rep your badass 2010 Platinum with a Borla Xr1, not a 14" magnaflow that sounds good no doubt, but is soooo common.

X2

This section is all about uniqueness, at least the original setups are.

There isn't a kit for the F150's. You would need to buy the muffler, Y-pipe, tips, then have a shop fab it up for you.

40941. Keep your piping 2.5" from the manifolds into the muffler, Y pipe it and run 2.5" duals all the way to the back exiting however you like.

No problem. Youll make a lot of people jealous if you go this route, vs being like everyone else and having a 14" maggy put on. (no offense to those who have them)
