Whats a good exhaust for me?
I have an 88 f250 with a 351w. I was wondering if any of you guys have any good exhaust setups. I am not looking to do headers but let me know what you guys have.

Factory manifolds, Bassani 3" y-pipe, 3" Magnaflow converter and muffler. Then finished off with a 3" aluminized tailpipe, please do not tell my truck it was designed for a Chevy.....
I blew my budget on the 3" stainless Bassani y-pipe, hence the reason why I am still running factory manifolds. 1992 F350 4x4 5.8L/E4OD |
I kept everything just changed the muffler.I went with a Thrush welded. Nice mellow sound.

My last set up on my 351w was stock manifolds, stock piping up to where it was supposed to be a y. Made a better flowing y pipe into 3" pipe then into a 3" single in single out flowmaster 50 series and a 45 out behind the passenger rear tire. Sounded like a mustang with a 302 if you cut off the exhaust after the cat on it. No crackle or pop. Mellow under 3000 rpms and a nice roar after that.
My current set up is a set of long tube 3" collector dynomax headers into a 3" single in single out summit street and strip muffler then it goes to a 45 degree angle out before the rear tires. Sounds a lot meaner and lower, but still decent at low rpms. The headers with the full 3" pipe and lack of tailpipes freed up a ton of power. You can tell a difference in the seat as well as in the pocket. gained 1 mpg average swapping to the current set up. |
I like the y pipe into the 3 inch pipe. If i fid that i would probably use a flowmaster 40 and just cut the cat off. Anybody have a good dual exhaust setup.
|
My current exhaust is dual. I should have been more descriptive.
|
I cut mine off just before the cat ran a piece of 3" pipe into a 3" in flowmaster super 44 and a 3" turndown directly after muffler which is just infront of the rear axle.
Search "thebudmiester" in YouTube i have some exhaust clips there |
Mine is catless, factory piped into 2 cheap glass pack, rumbles at an idle, and roars past 3k, easy and doesnt sound bad
|
I have pacesetter full length headers, custom Y pipe with magnaflow cat and a super 44 dumped after axle.

What do you guys think of a y pipe into a single 3" then a single in single out magnaflow muffler then dump it in front of the rear wheel.

There are a bunch of exhaust sound clips of different combinations here: Exhaust sound clips - FSB Forums

I run a 2 1/4" -> 3" flowmaster y pipe with flowmaster 40 series muffler. No cat

I've got a 94 with a 5.8 and factory manifolds, Y pipe and cat. 3" from the cat to a magnaflow and then 3" out to the rear of the truck. Sounds great and I make good power. It's a simple and inexpensive exhaust. Not sure if the truck gained any extra mileage with my setup as my dad did it before he gave me the truck.

If I were you, I would get the exhaust out from under the truck. As in aim it out the side somewhere or out the back. The single 3" will bring up torque though.
