After months of waiting, I am finally getting the muffler cut off of my 2006 F-250 V10 tomorrow morning. I'm getting it welded in place as this is all that my local exhaust shop does (they don't have clamps). If I don't like it, I will simply take it back in to put a performance muffler back on. Hopefully everything will go as planned and I won't have to change anything! I will post my review of it tomorrow!
I have yet to hear a truck v10 with exhaust you can hear that sounds "good". Loud sure but good no. Most sound like a pair of sick 1988 Buick regals with the exhaust rotted off.
As mentioned above, its fun for a week, kinda neat for a month or so, but as soon as you get a few hours of it under your belt, you will LOATHE it.
I still say go for it though, everybody should get to drive a big, loud, lifted truck atleast once in their life..........so they can quickly figure out how annoying it can be
Well, I just picked it up--- and personally, I like it. It's not too loud and doesn't drone. It sounds best at lower RPMs and the sound fades away at highway speeds. I'll just have to see how it goes!
iv tried 3 differant mufflers on my 5.4 and keep going back to runing a straight pipe turn down never have been much of a muffler fan other than a good glass pack but then thats not really a muffler
With the 5.4 get thrush welded turbo mufflers with turn downs just front of rear axle..I have no cats and it has a crackle and rumble at idle and good tone while driving.. I did the strait pipe for a bit and hatred the groan and droan that came with it.. Thrush welded give the sound that I like.. But in the end is your truck and what sound you want.. My buddy has a v10 with some flowmaster 10's.. Way to loud for my taste..
We are staying across the street from a Volunteer Fire Dept. and they all have no mufflers leaving out all hours of the night. Worse than the occasional alarm.
