Magnaflow true duals

**AspenF150** · 12-12-2008, 06:52 PM

After listening to bucu vids on youtube and searching threads on other forums, I`ve narrowed my decision down to Magnaflow true duals for my truck.

My setup will be to remove stock Y pipe, run 2.5" pipe with a Magnaflow 14" DI/DO build in x muffler and 4x18" slash SS tips. I`m leaving the cats alone.

Anyone here running this setup, preferably on a 5.4 F150?

For what its worth I`m running magnaflow on my 540 BMW...makes the V8 makes a nice growl on the low end and no cabin noise while on the road

what`s the length of your muffler? 14" 11" ?

On my 5.2 L Dakota, I have Magnaflow dual exhaust. Everything after the converter is custom. I bought ithe truck used and it had glass packs but had to replace it due to holes in exhaust since I could not pass the vehicle inspection.

The bad thing is the chrome tips are have pitting now due to the heat/moisture. I want to get these replaced with something more durable.

Mines 14 inches ...I don`t know the model number but after looking at the web site each application is a bit different...I got the polished stainless steel...helps to keep the rust from forming...also I like shiny

I`ve had all kinds of after market mufflers...the maga is one of the best that I`ve seen...the only other one that I looked at was Borla...top end stuff

Borla is alittle out of my price range. My boss has an 05 FX4 F150 with SI/SO Borla cat-back. Sounds nice but too tame for my tastes.

Chrome looks good but it`s like black, you have to stay on top of them. Even more with the rear tires splashing junk all over them.

I plan on investing into stainless tips. Cost more initially but last a long time and IMO, look better than chrome.
