Post Which exhaust should i get?

Currently i just have the stock exhaust that came with my 2004 f-150 fx4, and i've been trying to find the right exhaust i want. I'm unsure if i want to get some magnaflows or flowmasters, or maybe even black exhaust MBRP has. Anyone have pics of black exhaust?

Get a dynomax Bullet or Magnaflow Magnapack if you want to hear anything at all with your 4 cat system.

Flowmaster sounds hollow and like its a tank with air flowing through it.

I was looking into getting a dynomax bullet also. I just wanted some rumble but didn't want it to be too aggressive to where it would get annoying after a couple of months and regret ever getting it.

I have true duals with Dynomax Bullets. I'm very satisfied with the sound. I would recommend it. Leave all four cats on and it would sound close to mine in my exhaust video. Cut the rear cats off and it'll sound even meaner, a good example being Darren's old truck! It just depends on what exactly you're looking for.

As far as blackout exhaust goes, check these out:

For 2011+ yes. That sounds incredible on the 5.0L because they did it right, round body and 3". The ROR kit for '04/'08 sounded good, but not as good as how the other Borla mufflers and Magnaflow Magnapacks sound on them. Its all because of the many random pipe sizing they had in the ROR kit. It ran off the OEM 2.5" midpipe, to its own 3" and into the muffler 3", then dual out the muffler in 2.25". Had they made it run 3" off the Y pipe and to the muffler, dual 2.5" tails, it would sound wickedly meaner. Though that super small body is a little bit small and good for popping when a little cold. If you are running an oval body you don't want it that short, the round body mufflers which are longer ( 12" - 15" ) are the perfect key match for a good sound. Which is why catalytic upgrades are an option! Run the nice smoother sounding bigger oval muffler for that deep rich sound, get the harder pitched volume from hi-flows. Only downfall is some do not want the hassle of getting it done, some peoples shops wont touch them, and Cali residents are exempt from catalytic work.
