I have an 08 Ford F150 FX4 crew cab and I have them straight piped like the one in the first one. I think it sounds best. It's very very deep especially on a cold start and still has just the right amount of wah bah to it. I put a Flowmaster on it start with a single in dual out 40 series and kept the cat on it cuz I don't want no check engine lights on and it sounded just a lil louder than the stock muffler I was not impressed to say the least. So I told the guy at the muffler shop who put it on for me that if he would hack it off and straight pipe it that I would give the Flowmaster to him in return If he would just str8 pipe it out the back. I don't drive anything--but Fords and all of the ones I've had have sounded good it all just depends on what you're willing to do to it and what motor it has.dont take it the wrong way I'm not trashing flowmaster or after market mufflers the best sounding one I've had was a 92 flareside wit a 302 and a 1 in 2 out flow 40 series exhaust with no catalytic on it. It wasnt quite as baseful as the str pipe 5.4 truck I have now but definetly had more wah bah to it. if you're willing to cut the catalytic converters off I would prefer Flowmasters they sound great single in dual out one Muffler sounds gr8, but if you want to leave the cat on and not worry about no check engine light codes or emissions then straight pipes the way to go.
I have a 2008 fx4 with the 5.4 litre triton. I put speed daddy shorty headers on it. I kept the original cats. Then ran a dual in dual out super 10 flowmaster muffler. Then dual 4 inch tips on each pipe. It sounds amazing. When the weather clears up I will get a video and post it!!!
I got the best sounding exhaust on my 5.4 04 F-150 2WD Larait. Factory aftermarket exhaust with an 18 inch 40 series Flowmaster muffler. Loud but not obnoxious. No clapping or CIS. Just a good nice sounding truck.
I prefer the 1st one. I'd personally just do a pipe in place of the stock muffler and retain the stock tailpipe, keep it single exhaust. That'd be the cheapest option aside from being a hack and just cutting the muffler off and leaving it that way.
CA has a 95db limit for vehicles with a GVWR lower than 6000LBS. So that FlowFX is perfect for CA on passenger cars, for full size trucks and SUVs we have no limits
The 2 valve was basicly the crown Vic motor, indestructible block, in 04 they went to the 3 valve design which had alot of issues, a ticking time bomb honestlyn
Great vlog. I have a 1967 Mustang, 200 c.i. 6 cylinder. I put a Pontiac Firebird crossways muffler, with two outlets to back. Doesn’t sound like any v8s, but I like the looks of dual exhausts. Thanks for sharing, I will subscribe!
Yes I agree with that, but it's to obviously loud like that. You end up hearing g not but the loud notes all the time. A perfect exhaust is where you can hear half the sound from the motor and the other half from the muffler/ pipes. You slap the cats back onto it and run that same setup your talking bout then it's just bout as good as it can get but without the cats you mine as well not even have a radio In it bc your not gonna be able to hear the music anyways. Also you might want to keep some advils around to bc you gonna keep a headache.
@@j.r.ledbetter1416 the sound deading in those trucks are so good its not that loud in the cab and the x pipe quiets it down more than you would think my uncles truck has that exhaust on it and he drives it daily and is not bad in the cab but on the outside it sounds like a straight piped mustang
@@kingstyle7314 well I will be honest I've never heard the setup you are talking about on the 5.4. and I will agree with you about the cab in the way the sound doesn't travel through their Ford makes a great interior and can on those trucks it feels and sounds like you are in a Escalade or better yet a navigator. But I have heard alot of 90s and early 2000's trucks that are str8 pipe and not cats and they literally were so damm loud that you could hear them even after they drove out of sight and I think people just get loud and sounding good mixed up bc it's not the same. I would like to here what you are talking about tho bc where I am at I dont think I've ever heard a str8 pipe mustang either. everyone around here has flows on the stangs. Which I cant say nothing about that bc that's what I would have to if I had a h/o ford motor one flow muffler 2 in two out with no cats. The flowmasterwas made for the 5.0liter ford motors nothing g sounds better but a truck is a lil diff know what I mean
Also you are probably right I don't know anything about an x-pipe I didn't know that it was too quiet it down I've only ever run wipes and they don't do that so learned something new today
@@j.r.ledbetter1416 an x pipe basically helps with scavenging exhaust gas because your exhaust flows in pulses and the x pipe helps to accelerate the scavenging which is why big tips and big pipes make that clapping sound that's the exhaust not scavenging fast enough and "hitting" itself on the way out which makes it seem quieter he ran true duel straights on that truck for about a week before changing it because it was loud enough to make your ears nearly bleed you couldn't start the truck in a car port with the windows down or door open it was that bad its still loud but not as bad and has a nice mix of rasp and some burble
Just picked up some JBA headers going in, with a Y to my magnaflow muffler, with dual dumps out on my 01 Harley F150 No screw oh yeah stock cats ugh...keep it up guys great channel...
I have a 2010 super crew standards bed. How many feet of piping am I going to need to do the true dual set up? Stainless or whats the best material to use?
#3 sounds the best! I have a 2007 Ford F-150 XLT Lariat with a 5.4L Triton and this is the setup that’s going on it. Just as a reference point, how much in dollars am I looking at spending on that setup?
I loved it and I finally got to hear different types of exhaust systems I personally loved the true dual with the 6in tips what’s the estimate on that mines an 08 ford fx2 that’s what I want for mine I live here in Tennessee also !! I just subscribed 🙌
I have a 2003 Ford F-150 with the 5.4 2v true dual straights 2.5 pipe to 3in angle cut at 45 and claps sometimes if I went to 4 1/2 and dumped them would it sound better
Have the flow master 40 in mine and I’m gonna be changing to true dual on mine soon, I’ll be running y pattern just like it is and keeping the same 16 long by 4 inch wide tips on it
Been watching videos on these 5.4 3v trucks. All the videos are several years old. I imagine it’s because all the 5.4s in these videos have since locked up due to cam phase sensor failure lol
I got a 2000 expedition 5.4 with a flowmaster 40. I remember when I first got it installed it didn’t seem that loud but after a couple of weeks it really broke in and sounds much louder now than it did. I wanted to run dual exhaust but the expeditions have the gas tank on the drivers side.
My 2000 Expedition had a Flowmaster 3" cat back on it. Flowmasters are junk IMO, terrible drone and rotted from the inside. Switched over to a Magnaflow, less interior drone and no internal baffles to rot out, a true straight through design unlike the Flowmasters baffles.
@@RangerDanger074x4 If you use the vehicle on long road trips like I've done over the years, the drone definitely becomes annoying. Glad you like them.
@@RangerDanger074x4 I'm an old dude in my mid 40's now, lol. When I was in my teens and 20's it was Flowmasters dumped at the axle on every Mustang I owned! Times have changed lol. I've got the Magnaflow 3" catback on my 00 Expedition, Magnaflow 3" catback on my 01 F150 supercrew and just bough an 01 crown vic, it has a single Flowmaster, on that I'll probably buy another and run duals to keep the costs down. The wife's vehicle stays all stock lol.
I had a 90 degree out style but these are so hard to do it on. Dualed from cats back. 05 5.4 had the lockouts installed. It started hard but never failed. -50 I bet it would start up. I miss it. Looking at an 07, I like that body style but they have horrible engines. I’m thinking if I can get it dualed to 65’s like my 03 has I’d still be happy
SERIOUS QUESTION ive been watching your videos for many months now. Huge fan. My question is the 3rd truck true dual straight piped with 6 inch tip. I have true dual no cats glasspacks. I was told thats is loud as I can go and not straight pipe because of back pressure. Any recommendation? Thank you in advance
Thanks for the response i appreciate it! Is there any concern on back pressure? Is there negative effects of opening in wide open? Im not worried about loudness
I’m looking at getting a 10th Gen F150, and wanted to know how much the #5 @ 0:11 costs, but with 3inch angle cut tips by 18 I believe.. everything the same but tips.
I have a 5.4 i want it to have a loud low bassy growl/rumble, i dont really want that crackling type sound..i want a consistent tone...what muffler would be best?
This dude just told me to get ready to be clapitized
Think I caught the clap
We got clapped on y'all.
😂😂😂
You guys are freakin awesome. No BS just shows the install and we hear the sound. You rock!!!!
Definitely that F150 XLT #3 is the best sounding in this video!! ✊🏻😎
Yeah it sounds mint 👌🏼
Yeah I got true duals on my truck also.
Yea maybe if you like hondas but own a truck
I like the first one for my 2006 F-150 XLT 5.4 with 230,000 miles on it.

Still raining?
Dual Straight pipes im in love
i think #5 was very slept on, i liked it alot.
I'm fixing to do #1 to my 5.4 triton👌😊
You will like the outcome if you like loud but not obnoxious like (3). It will have just the right amount of back pressure pop as well
same
This is what I want for my f150. I'm loving that growl
I'm Doing #3 to my Lincoln Navigator 💯
How much would the #3 exhaust normally run? I’m bout to buy a f150 and this is the style and sound I love
The second 5.4 and the third one were by far the best

I like the sound of the blue one the best.
you guys are actually so helpful for picking exhausts
You just helped me find a muffler for my 5.4 v8 triton, thanks brotha awesome vid
No problem 👍
I like the Lincoln with the FlowFx. Nice deep throaty rumble and not too loud.
I did a black widow 6” Neighborhater on my 03 f250 with a 5.4 and it’s insane sounding!
I prefer the 1st one. I'd personally just do a pipe in place of the stock muffler and retain the stock tailpipe, keep it single exhaust. That'd be the cheapest option aside from being a hack and just cutting the muffler off and leaving it that way.
The 3rd one, the blue F150 is by far the best sounding.
100% agree
The blue one was not a 5.4 it was a 4.6 I could telll by the diff cover it was a 8.8 diff not a 9.75
How much do you think a setup like that would cost?
Would like to here it with out trash cans welded on exhaust
Planning on doing number 3 on the 10th gen f150 I'm about to get
First one is my favorite.
I have the flowmaster 40 on my 97 with duel side pipes sounds great
Y pipe straight is my favorite one
Dual flow master super 40s is where it’s at
awesome guys, covered all the points i was looking for.. well done. look forward to more...
Now that’s beast mode
Just got a 06 4x4 f150 watched this video even before I got the truck but plan on getting either 5 or 3 true dual is the way to go for sure
Number three really wanted to be a powerstroke with those tips lol
CA has a 95db limit for vehicles with a GVWR lower than 6000LBS. So that FlowFX is perfect for CA on passenger cars, for full size trucks and SUVs we have no limits
Ayyyy that my truck at number 3 y’all did a hell of a job I love hearing her clap and still loud asf
She’s bad brother
by far the best sounding truck
do you have a link to the exhaust that you purchased?
@@GreenmanRP He didn't buy an exhaust... its straight piped

#2 is my favorite by far in every single way. And i think it’s the last year they used the 2V instead of 3V, which is a huge plus.
Wait but the 3v fixed all the major issues of the 2v or am I wrong
