Planning out true duals for my 5.0...
Yeah I guess I'll just hold out for a ROR muffler. I can't tell if it is even worth upgrading the factory y either. It doesn't look that bad. I can't tell if it would even be a noticeable difference

Been trying to gather info if my ROR is too loud with the LT's, and do it cheaply. The catted OBX LT's after the collectors are 2.5" and Y into a 2.5" pipe, so I think I'd have to make the Y exit into a 3" pipe which seems logical to me for flow. So 2.5" into 3" into a 3" BorlaProXS 4"x14" (no 18" in a 3" si/so) muffler to the single side exit tip before the tire? Will this sound good? Or go with a Magnapack?
08FX4's current exhaust sounds just like I'd want, perfect and mean.

Yeah the packs would be way too loud. Avoid ROund body muffler WIll... you are gonna want oval bodies. If you don't want the ROR in there if it's too loud, I'd say something like this
according to Borla's site or you could down true duals with a di/do... they did that those.
400241 - 3" inlet dual 2.5" 19" x 4" x 9 1/2" Center/Dual

Yes that would be fine... 2.25 is the ideal size on these trucks for true duals, so you'd be ok esp with a 3" intermediate pipe I would think. If you come off 2.5" at the headers then have them go into a y pipe (like the factory set-up) except a dual 2.5" in single 3" out and mate it up to the ROR, you'd be fine
I keep playing his magnapack video over and over while I surf.
