There's plenty of options available with various prices ranges and quality. I went with a Borla "ATAK" on my 2013 5.0. Just yesterday I pulled up to a red light and had my windows down and some guy pulls up next to me and asked me the following: "Is that a stock engine and what year is that truck?" I replied stock 2013 and it's the exhaust that makes it sound like it does.

YouTube videos don't do justice for most exhausts sounds but check out as many as you can to help you decide what you like best.

Borla has 3 different sound "aggression" levels for the 5.0. Click on the 5.0 when it prompts for it or listen to them all if you want.

PS: Best mod for a V8 truck IMO.

Ok I want something deep and aggressive to where people know its not stock but not to the point of annoying. Preferably catback system so I don't have to chop up my factory one.

Can't post video right now. Drinking beer in the park waiting for Window Tint install to complete. Do what I did: Find a custom exhaust shop willing to let you hear the various options. They cut the pipe and held up options with the truck running. Swapped them out till I found the one I liked. 10 minute process.

It was called EXHAUST PRO'S. Don't think it was a franchise though — just a local shop. Good luck! That low rumble makes a big difference.

Haha He's one of the Borla family members it's a family business for over 30+ years his demeanor is the same in some of the other videos they have I think he's just a really laid back type of guy.

Premium exhaust systems with a premium price regardless what truck or car you have.
