Best Exhaust!!!!

1998 4.6 2wd 5speed f150



I probably have had almost every exhaust possible on my truck. My favorite has been straight pipe no cats no muffler true dual coming from gibson headers. Man was it loud. Right now i just put 2 imco's on there just to tone it down a little.....Now since im gettin 4.30 gears in the rear im gonna have good low end. Just wondering what would give me the best low end and horsepower and give me more of a deep tone that you can feel outside the truck rather than a screamin truck. i want to set car alarms off......

i would think if you want a deeper "bass" type sound...like deep throw...i would think a bigger pipe would do the trick maybe?

i am not sure what you are at not...but maybe go up an inch or more and see what happens.

not personally...my friend got the magna flow Y pipe for his 00' V6 stang....and it sounds not bad...but not very deep....he is debating about going over to the X pipe as well.

I think a Flowmaster race muffler (10 series) would sound good with straight pipes and no cats

2 chamber flowmaster 40 series...with a 3" turndown...(i still need a hiflow y-pipe to finish the job)



this one doesnt set off car alarms but my bronco does (shes got full length headers and that helps a LOT!!)

Dynomax Super Turbo's sound good, flow good but aren't overly loud.
