looking to get rid of the ranger and get me a f150. wont happen till late next year but im already thinking exhausts i'd perfer a stainless exhaust kit, espically for around these parts cuz the new salt they are putting on the roads are devouring alumminum. I checked youtube and the forum for different sounding kits. I think the banks, mbrp, pypes violator kit, and roush sound the best. If anybody has any experience,advice,or sound clips of these kits i would greatly appreciate it. Also, would si/so kits sound better then the si/do kits? thanks guys for any input.

 

Banks or MBRP IMO.

Roush will be a lot louder than both of those.

I would just go with whatever you like better have looks wise, I can't really tell a huge difference between single out and dual out.

 

I've heard banks and mbrp, both sound good. I hate the huge tip on the banks kit though.

 

co-worker of mine just got a magnaflow cat back system. Not sure which magnaflow he got, but you can barely hear exhaust when idle, but sounds great when he romps on it.

 

yea banks and mbrp where my leading choices, the tip on the banks is obnoxious, but i do like it for some reason. Anybody ever have experience or heard the afe mach force xp exhaust?

 

magnaflow got a good rep, been looking at them to. I love the looks of the banks dual system but god dam 644 is alot of money! lol thanks guys for the replies, really

 

There are usually a few cheap sites for magnaflow kits. The last two magnaflow catbacks i bought listed for over 700 but I paid around 500 for each. Always been happy with them, but haven't heard one on an f150. I would imagine they sound good as well.

 

I picked up a banks for $412 inc shipping.

 

Yeah I got my dual MBRP XP series for around 400-425 as well.

If your going magnaflow I would just buy the muffler off of Magnaflow Performance | Discount Performance Auto Parts | Performance Exhaust Systems | Flowmaster Performance Mufflers and take it to a local shop and have them do you a system.

 

Where may I ask, did you Find the banks kit for so cheap? Was it the dual outlet?

 

SI/SO Banks is by far the best IMO. and i loved the tip. i paid 300 for mine. ha

 

What's the difference between the pro and xp series? Seem the same in the descriptions? Higher grade steel?

 

Higher quality aluminum. The Pro is a fully polished system, the XP is just for 403 stainless if I remember correctly.

I would only pay for the pro if your making a show truck, for normal the XP is fine.

 

i didnt even know banks made stuff for gassers

 

Nice! I'm loving the banks

 

Why did you ever get rid of that truck..so nice

 

How did it sound may I ask? Sweet f150 by the way

 

From what I've heard about the Banks kits its like MBRP and magnaflow, mellow idle but then roars when you get on it.

 

That's exactly how I want my fiddy to look

 

Stock exhaust

Banks is only a little bigger 8-)

 

yeah i loved that thing. didnt know how good i had it when I drove that thing. oh well, too late now.

 

YouTube - F150 Banks Exhaust

 

well that video kinda sucks. now i remember why i sold it. haha those tires are insane.

 

 

lol i thought my tires were a headache, truck was still worth the noise of the tires. thanks for the vids, appreciate it. I'm thinking the banks and the mbrp might be a little quit for me. Idk, unless i hear it in person and the camera aint doing it justice. The roush seems loud, but a good loud. im done with flowmaster, i actually want to put a quality muffler in.
