Adding a muffler

Hello everyone I have a 06 with the 3v 5.4l. My current exhust is all stock untill where the muffler was. That was cut off and a y pipe was added and then 2.25 pipes were run out the back from the stock 2.5. It's kinda loud for highway and interstate driving so I wanna add a muffler. I still want it decently loud but with less cab drone. Should I add a single muffler before the y pipe or a 1in 2 out magna flow, dynomax, etc... Any advice would be great! Also I've heard magnaflows are quiet... What's the louder series? Thank you

I put a dynomax super turbo on and love it! Nice rumble. Loud when u get on it and no drone on the highway!!!
Single in dual out!

Thank you

Thank you! I've heard great from dynomax on the 5.4s. I've just had trouble finding one with a 2.5 inlet and dual 2.25 outlets.

Throw a single magnaflow in there. That's what I did. Makes no difference either way

Flowmaster or magnaflow exhaust system will surely be a great choice. Decent looking, but produces amazing mind bubbling sound.

if you want a louder muffler, I recommend Dynomax. This muffler is not pricey also.

You can use a single muffler with a Magnaflow Y pipe that is single 2.5" to dual 2.25". I used one of these for my tailpipes however I ran 3" to dual 2.5". Held up great and sounds awesome with the #14419 round muffler.
