best sounding 6.0 exhaust

Picking up a 2006 F350 cc,Drw 6.0 tomorrow, I would like to swap out the exhaust for a little more noise and a litttle more turbo whistle I don't want to spend a million dollars any suggestions. Thanks

I run a 4in straight pipe that kicks out in front of the rear wheel. Insane turbo whistle and the roar at WOT is amazing.

This may be a silly question but I'm new to some of the terminoligy here and am curious as to what you mean when you refer to WOT.

Shawn,

Cheapest is to cut out the muf and cat and replace them with one piece of pipe.

I went with the magnaflow 4in, very easy to install and on the cheaper side of the spectrum.

4" exhaust will make the truck sound great. Pretty loud, but that leaves the choice for a muffler or not. I have a silverline exhaust, which consists of a 3.5" dp and 4" from there back. Then it's 5" above the bed y into 6" black stacks. It bellows big time and lowered egts about 400*.

If u dont like the barking at WOT go with the muffler. I have had 4'' straight piped from turbo & all that barking sounds like sh!!! in my opinion. Dont get me wrong sounds cool till she starts barking all sloppy all over the place. Making that nasty noise is equal as blowing coal to me. This 5'' MBRP turbo back "with muffler" like a wet dream now. I can floor it & sounds so good. Sounds good at all RPM levels. From my experience the muffler makes a world of difference.

That's where you'll get different opinions. Me, I like that sound. Others not so much. I tow a lot and I like to hear that motor roaring at WOT. Like I said, it bellows
