300 Exhaust Help Needed

1990 F-150 2X4 E4OD 3.73 limited slip 38,000 original miles!

All factory exhaust wanted to remove cats and then go with a 3" pipe out to the factory location, for muffler I thought about the DynoMax muffler. Do not like how those flowmasters sound especially on a friends nissan v-6, sounds like a moped!

Thanks.

300 Exhaust Help Needed

I have a Dynomax cat-back with a Super Turbo muffler and it has a deep sound but is not overpowering. I just gutted the first cat recently and it got louder, so with no cats that should give you a good deep rumble that's not extremely loud. If you want something louder, you can go with a Dynomax Ultra Flow. They are supposed to outflow Borla, Flowmaster, Gibson, and Edelbrock.

best thing to do is remove the 2nd and run 2.5" pipe. i did this with a flow 40 series and it made a nice improvment and sound is nice. dont need anything over 2.5" pipe on a stock 300...

You can find the part numbers on http://www.dynomax.com/trucks.stm and then you can go to http://store.summitracing.com/defaul...get=search.asp to give you a ball park figure for the price of them. Summit would probably be a good place to get them from too. I think NAPA can special order them too if you wish.

EDIT: the link above is for cat-back systems. They also have the muffler specs by themselves - http://www.dynomax.com/mufflers.stm

What were the model #'s of the catback and muffler you used? What size exhaust pipe did you run? I looked on the website but and on the PDF files and could not find any one for a 1990 F-150 300.

I'm not exactly sure what the specifics are on the exhaust I have, as it was given to me for my 16th birthday. The 300 should be the same p/n as the 5.0, and 5.8 for your year. The kit I have I think is 2 1/2" from cat to muffler, and dual 2 1/4" tail pipes that exit in the stock location. I think those kits are the only ones for the 87-96 trucks on the pdf. I have the super turbo because my dad didn't want my truck to be that loud. It gives a good deep sound but isn't loud enough to get annoying. I did notice a slight increase in volume since i got rid of the plugged up front cat.
