4" straight pipe. How much noise?

early 99F350 Auto 4x4 CC LB
Been reading the other threads on 4 and 5 inch straight pipes. Any way to figure how loud? I am leaning towards Mark Romriell's straight pipe. Any suggestions. Was thinking even the 5 at first put seems the 4 is plenty?

Thanks

I have Mark's 4" straight pipe and I love it. Not too loud even at highway speeds. You will certainly hear more turbo.

Just enough, I love it. Course I am half deaf (Viet Nam Marine Infantry) but my girl that has super sensitive hearing likes it too. So go from there. I see no reason for the 5".

My 4" has a noticable low frequency sound at certain RPMs. I like it. Still quieter than a straight piped gasser.
