Flowmaster Owners
Im considering 2 different kits for my 04 FX4 Screw. Same 50 series SUV muffler but my consideration is dual side exit or single side exit. I want the truck to sound good but I dont want it to be really loud. Anyone with either of these that can help me out? Thanks

I am running a 50 series duals with opposite side exit. I tow a travel trailer on a regular basis so I didn't want the pipes spewing crap all over the front of my trailer. It sounds great. Nice mellow rumble at Idle but if you jump on it you will know it's there. The tip size will greatly change the sound of your exhaust. I am running 3" SS tips.

I have the 50 flowmaster straight out the back and it sounds awsome. If you want it louder than set the the pipes out the rear side. The only thing is the sound while driving with the windows down with the side exit pipes.

I have always been a fan of Flowmaster, I had one on my 96. Do you guys have a 50 series part# for the single outlet out the side? I'm looking to keep this on a low budget and do it myself. I would like to take off the stock muffler, put on the flowmaster, then have someone bend me up the tailpiece.

Check local muffler shops. I had mine done for $235 out the door. That included 50 series and a chrome tip. They are able to reuse the stock pipe if you are going for the stock siso.
Here's a couple pics of mine.

Hey All,
Newbie to exhaust systems....
Does adding this type of system do anything for you besides sound (i.e. performance, MPG)? Second question, Do you need the full kit, or can part of the stock system be used?

any you guys notice interior resonance w/ the 50 series deltaflow, stock rear tail pipe? I currently have a Maganaflow and am really dissapointed in the horrible interior resonance at 1700-1900 rpm, with slight load or going up slight grade, and if i'm driving 60-65, thats about the point its loudest. I had 50 series DF before in a '91, 5L, and i dont remember being this loud. Currently mine is a 4.6 '05 scab, 3.55, but the mag muffler has a nice tone, just that rpm band thats annoying. I just wanted input before spending more bucks on another muffler that maynot be much diff. All else is stock. thanks! pross, BTW, anyone w/the SUV version of the 50 series?
