Lets Talk Exhausts!

I have the biggest cab and a 6.5 foot bed. I was looking at the flow master outlaw system. Which ones will fit and what are you guys going with?

Corsa Extreme. Enough said. Look up videos. On the Ecoboost, many sound ricer. The Corsa sounds great.

Sound is subjective - Not a big fan of the majority of EB exhausts out there. This is one of the exceptions - sounds like a baby powerstroke. Kit included Everything from the turbo back.

Break out the wallet though: https://www.spdperformance.com/index...roduct_id=1757

OP, good advice from smokewagun and robbgt. Sound is definitely subjective. We tell customers who want a certain sounding exhaust, go to the manufacturers sites, and look for sound clips. A search on YouTube can also yield good results. There can be variables, but at least you can hear the real-world sound of the exhaust. Our most popular exhaust systems for the 2015+ F-150 are from Borla and Flowmaster.

The Borla ATAK seems to be the most popular from them. Options there would be the BOR-140616 with polished tips or BOR-140616BC with black chrome tips. Borla also offers the Touring series and S-Type for these trucks.

Video of the above Borla Systems

Keep in mind, these Borla systems are meant for the 145" wheelbase. They offer extension pipes for the longer wheelbase trucks. For 157" wheelbase which is a SuperCrew with 6.5 ft. bed, you'd need BOR-60556.

For Flowmaster, the American Thunder and Outlaw series you mentioned are the most popular.

American Thunder

Outlaw

These Flowmaster systems come with an extension pipe. You would need to trim 6" off the extension pipe for the SuperCrew trucks with a 6.5' bed.

One thing to remember is not all stainless steel is equal. The above Borla systems are 304 and the Flowmasters are 409. For helpful info about the two, see this article.

Thank you so much! You guys are the best!

I really LOVE that expensive one, taking the turbo flanges off has me nervous though.Seems like a ton of work! Maybe a shop could install it?

I don't see why not. I'd call around and ask your local shops.

If you like the sound of a pissed off bumblebee on steroids, the yes, change the exhaust system otherwise, leave it stock.

That sounds fine and dandy and all babying around a parking lot. Maybe I missed it jumping around the painfully long video, but I'd bet under decent/hard accel it sounds like poo poo like all the rest.

My brother has the smaller Ecoboost in his f150. Screw with short bed. He put a mbrp XP series on, rear exit of the vehicle, not the one that exits in front of the rear tire. It is loud, sounds like a banks system on a Nissan frontier, does sound ricer like, not crackly or anything though.

Didn't realize 2 min was painfully long?

Here's the last gen EB with them getting on it a bit (start the video at 40 seconds). It's not for everyone but I still think it sound better than the vast majority of the systems available.

If I owned an EB I surely would not get an aftermarket kit. But that's me. Folks can spend money how they want.

I have the 5.0 and I'm not getting aftermarket exhaust. I like my trucks/cars nice and quiet. The Harley's? Different story....

Americantrucks.com has sound clips for a lot of their exhausts. Put in your truck info and go through the exhausts that interest you, they should have videos of them

On that site i posted, it will tell you if it will fit or not. The MBRP kits come with a pipe off the flange under the cab that you cut to fit your cab and bed specifications. I can't speak to any other ones.
