New Exhaust has been Installed

I made the trip to Stafford Virginia this morning and had a custom exhaust installed by Roberts Custom Exhaust. He did the system on my 2006 King Ranch and was an obvious choice for the new truck.

After some deliberation between the 18" and the 14" magnaflow muffler I finally decided on the 18" at Roberts recommendation.

The system is a cat back 3" in and dual 2.5" out. The factory resonator was removed and the exhaust was then turned out behind the rear tires and a dual tip used on each side. Pretty much a dual raptor style. The pictures don't show it well but the tips are dual 4"

I am totally in love with the sound and haven't given the gas pedal a break all day

note: I have seen several postings asking about the sound difference between the 5.4 and the 5.0. I installed the exact same system on my 2011 5.0 as I had on my 2006 5.4 only with a different tip and the 5.0 is several notches louder.

I'll hopefully have a video up this weekend. I was going to do it this past Saturday but I got caught up in another project.

Looks great! Do you have any pictures straight on from the back? What brand tips did you use?
