Hands down for the 2V V10 Doug Throley or Gale Banks long tube headers are the best. They come with a replacement y-pipe as well because the stock y-pipe is garbage. Type of exhaust depends on how loud you want it.

Heres a link to a thread of what I got on my truck.(Theres a video posted in there too) https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/7...-fm70-mod.html

DKF,
That sounds sweet man, do you have a cold air intake? If so what kind? And do you have long tube or short tube headers?

I have Doug Thorley long tube headers. Intake is a K&N FIPK2 w/filter wrap.

Borla is a quality exhaust but not worth the $$$ IMO. For a cat-back I would look at the Magnaflow or Banks.

I wouldn't bother with a cat-back system. If you have a 2V engine, replace your Y-pipe with something that flows better, then get a performance muffler (your choice) and a decent tip.

Use the savings to fill your fuel tank.

There is an article in the June issue of Boating World about Bank's systems.

I had the Borla headers and cat-back on my 99 V10. Good system. Back then, it was the least expensive.

I have just put a K&N cold air on my truck and i already have it programed, so i have plenty of power. I just want to make it breath better and sound badass. I wasnt sure if one pipe or duals were better on the V-10. I have heard two trucks with duals and they sounded like crap.

I'd keep the single 3" exhaust exiting out the back. If you want the "Dual look" you can use a single in dual out muffler. (3"in/2-2.5" out) A chambered muffler like flowmaster usually sounds better on the V10. I wouldn't go too loud with the muffler maybe a 50 series SUV, you want something with some volume to it. A replacement y-pipe like the Ebay y-pipe will make more power and make the exhaust louder but you will probably get a little exhaust flutter.

Those Doug Thorley's are expensive, the banks looks like the best bet for me, any other input though would be nice. I'm not doing anything yet i jsut wanted to get a good idea of what was out there, and hear it from guys that have used the products. Not just reading an advertisment.

The Banks headers cost more than the Thorleys. If a single exhaust is OK with you, I'd go with that.
