Exhaust ?

I have a 2017 f350 extended cab long bed. Currently running a Flowmaster delta 50 with the small resonator removed. It’s really not much louder them stock, and has very little drone. I want it a little louder thought. Been looking at this Flowmaster kit and wondering if anyone is running it, and how you like it. https://www.holley.com/products/exha...i/parts/817757

Personally I really like my MBRP. Definitely quite a bit louder than stock, and still not a lot of drone. I drive it every day and it's never annoying, but there's no mistaking that the exhaust isn't stock.

Anyone try removing the rear muffler and adding some pipe? Full length exhaust should keep the drone down, no muffler, just the resonator should make it louder.

I just picked up a new MBRP Installer Series 4" cat back system that I'll be installing later today on my '16 250 6.2l ... I'll post updates once I'm done.

I can't say I really noticed any power gains with mine, mileage seemed to stay the same.

So after having this on for a several hundred miles now I can say it's done little too nothing for performance but it does sound good...

From what I have read, that is the simplest and most cost effective way to get a better exhaust sound.
I believe the 6.0/7.3 "muffler replacement pipe" you can find on eBay fits too.

I removed the rear resonator and muffler. I left the front resonator and installed a Magnaflow muffler. Its sounds good with no drone. It made no difference in power or gas mileage.

if you want loud you can just go with a cutout. this is after the headers and high flow cats but before the magnaflow.

These trucks aren’t loud at all unless you true dual like I did. I started cutting stuff off one by one until it was basically a single pipe run through a glasspack then dual after still not even remotely loud. I then true dual with Magnaflow magnapacks and its just what I like and its not annoying in the cab.

I just straight-piped mine from the crossover back with duals behind the bumper. I do have to tippy-toe in town when the law is out, but on highway and interstate driving, you definitely know it is coming. It is a blast to drive through long tunnels like the Chesapeake in Virginia.
