Flowmaster on the F150

Has anyone added a Flowmaster or similar catback? Did it make much of a difference? Is it worth it. Does anyone have any Dyno data to post?

Thanks!

Is interior resonance an issue? Every flowmaster Ive owned, or know of, has had very bad interior resonance.

My 04 screw has flowmasters with magna flowtips. has good sound at idle and acceleration but has no drone at cruising speeds. i've had other systems on my cobras and they all droned but not this setup.
