Most folks on this site seem to prefer MagnaFlow. My brother-in-law has a MagnaFlow system on his 02 4.6 and loves it.

the 4.6 sounds wicked with dual Magnaflow 18" Bullet mufflers

I had the Magnaflow Magnapacks on my Mustang GT with 4.6 2v....pure muscle sounds


kinda loud though, but damn if it didn't sound awesome.

I just installed the flowmaser 50 suv on my o8', and I love the sound. It dosent have a real bad interier drone at highway speeds, but if you get on it, you know it it there. I went with a single in and dual out.

I have an 06 with a 4.6L I put the flowmaster american thunder catback system with a forty series single in dual out and it sounds great. It also picked up my hp a little bit and got me an ext mile to the gallon. It was really easy to install, only took about an hour and a half.
