hmmm..maybe its just cause its not too loud in the cab.. never heard someone else drive the truck.. and why do you think it would be custom? hmmm i think im gunna go get under the truck





"Did he ever say what series flow it is? Flowmaster makes a pretty wide ranger of mufflers."

NO, i didnt, not sure what series it is... the muffler should say, correcT?

I doubt the muffler will say it on it. I'm pretty sure flowmaster doesn't make a cat-back for the F-150 so it probably is custom.

Yeah the muffler won't say. Just measure it. The bigger it is the higher the series and the quieter it will be. The flow 40 is what most go with and I think its about a foot long.

the 5.4L is kinda mellow, I mean it will be unless you go full out. I wanted mellow 5.4L sound on the F150, but my Ranger will sound like a rapped 5.4L. :)

its not always the muffler. replace the cats with something else if you want it to be louder. that is my vote. it will make the most difference over muffler choice.
