MetalSludge......have NO doubts.....when I light the fire....people around me know it!!!!!
And when you let off the gas from highway speeds.....you will hear just a little rumble....but if you want to hear a LOT of rumble and even some muffled "backfiring", just pull her down into 2nd gear.....

Metal Sludge....
SORRY.....I don't have any sound clips of my exhaust system....and I am embarrassed to say that I don't even have any pictures of my truck yet?!
I am gooing to take pictures of my truck with some good detail of my exhaust system the next time I detail it.
I notice that you are in Altoona, PA.......my uncle, Karl Eshelman was born and raised in Altoona....and I was born and raised in York, PA.....which is not too far from Altoona. I have lived in Charlote, NC since 1972. It's nice to talk with a fellow Pennsylvanian....
I will post my truck pictures as soon as I take them.....hopefully in the next few weeks.

wsburgos.....
I am sorry I can't be of any help to you as I am not al all familiar with the 4.6L V8 and it's exhaust system.
Hopefully somebody on here will be able to help you out.....but from what I have seen, it appears that the vast majority of us got the 5.4, 3-valve, Triton V8s in our trucks.

I just installed the series 70 Flowmaster on my reg cab with dual exhaust exiting out the rear with the Corvette chrome tips. It has a nice roar when you step on the throttle and mellows out when you hit your desired cruising speed. I'll post a couple of pics when the weather gets a bit better here in the CSRA (thats local talk for the Central Savannaha River Area--Augusta, Ga). There is a new shop in North Augusta, S.C. called Truck Accessories or something along those lines, that sells the Chrome handles and door rings and I am sure they carry the chrome covers for the tailgate handleal also.

I BOUGHT A 04 F150 ,4X4 ,FX4,5.4 ON DEC. 28. I WENT TO THE MUFFLER SHOP TUESDAY AND HAD 3inch DUAL EXAUST WITH 4inch TIPS. IT MADE A VERY NOTICEABLE INPROVEMENT IN THE LOW END TOURQUE AND TOP END PICK UP. I LIKE THE WAY IT SOUNDS AND I'VE HAD A LOT OF COMPLIMENTS ON THE TONE AND LOOKS. I CALLED FORD BEFORE I HAD IT DONE AND THEY SAID THAT HAVEING DUAL EXAUST WOULD NOT VOID THE WARRANTY UNLESS YOU MESSED WITH THE CONVERTERS.

NOPE......
(1) Single Flowmaster 70 Series, Big Block II Muffler with a centered 3" inlet and DUAL 2.5" outlets, into DUAL 2.5" SHORT and bent tailpipes, into 18" long x 3" diameter, slant tip, polished 304 stainless steel "tips".....exiting out the right side of the truck, centered between the rear door and rear wheel well opening....
I looks great, sounds great, and has noticeably better low end torque and better acceleration.
The ONLY thing missing from this "more air in - more air out" concept is the K & N Air Filter.....which is not yet available for the 5.4L, 3-valve Triton V8. But based on my phone conversation with K & N of yesterday afternoon......it will be availablle in about a month or so....

Folks,
I posted a new album with a couple of pics of the Cat Back Flowmaster series 70 dual exhaust. Some background info: The entire installation was done by a muffler shop and with the dual input to the Flowmaster Series 70 Muffler and the dual exits w/Corvette style chrome tips cost $328.00 total. The sound of this system is awsome. It has adeep throaty tone during acceleration and then becomes almost quite at cruising doing 70 mph. Hope ya'll enjoy the pics 'cause I sure am enjoying my ride!
