Flowmaster 10 vs. 40 vs. super 44
Hi guys, I have a 2003 f150 king ranch V8 5.4L. I am looking to replace my current stock muffler. I want a nice loud exhaust. The IMO the louder the better. I want to hear it even when in idle. but I also want it to be deep. I have heard good things about the flowmaster 10, 40, and super 44. I am wondering which one you recommend as the Loudest, best sounding muffler for my truck?

If you want it louder and are just getting the muffler welded in place of the stock one, I say just get the stock muffler cut out and pipe welded in place.
That's what I did and it actually sounds really good. Especially for $25. It's loud, deep, and has a really good tone to it surprisingly. It only pops once or twice on the way down on a 3-4k rev. An added bonus is that cruising down the highway you can barely hear it until you get it to downshift on hard throttle application.
The reason I am recommending this is because it's hard to make these trucks loud with just a muffler swap due to their being 4 cats. And you said you wanted it loud, and doing what I recommended is the easiest solution to achieving that and like I said, It surprisingly sounds very good and I get compliments all the time.

Back when I first got my truck I ran it with just the cats and no muffler turned out in front of the rear passenger wheel. Sounded awesome, loud, drone wasn't unbearable at highway speed, didn't pop very often unless I was running it wide open. But then I moved to the city where cops actually listen for stuff like that when your coming through at 2am and had to put a muffler on it and ended up with a magnaflow. The sound is amazing from it not as loud as no muffler obviously but it's still a straight through design opposed to the chambered flow master style so it's louder than those.
Another cheap option would be something like a glass pack cherry bomb, like 30 bucks, and pretty loud too.

Hey I don't mean to thread-block you but I have a quick noob question regauding the 10's. I'm looking to replace my stock muffler with a 10 series and I'm planning on dumping it just after the cab. Now should I just go SO or DO? Would it make a difference in sound or mpg on a 3V 5.4L? Thanks.

SI/DO won't make a sound or performance difference. A muffler swap won't make a fuel economy difference. The SI/DO will give you the option later down the road to run dual tailpipes given the chance you someday wish to. But, you could still run dual tail pipes later on with a single outlet muffler using a smooth transition Y pipe from Magnaflow.
