2013 fx4 5.0L Muffler
Alright, looking to add a muffler to my truck. I am looking for a good rumble and the droning while driving doesn't bother me. I've heard of a resonator delete not sure what exactly to do with it or what it is used for. I honestly like starting my truck up and waking the neighbors up...any suggestions other than straight pipe which can't happen on newer models..

I ordered a flowmaster original 40 series muffler off amazon, 3" in 3"out and absolutely love it. It can be a little drony when you thromp on it but for the must part its got a decent rumble. And I dont like waking the neighbors as much just because I get up for work at 5 but I do worry about it some days, so to answer that part of the question, yes I imagine it will wake neighbors up. I kept the resonator on and just kept running the 3" pipe from the res to the muffler and all the way to a 4" tip, im not sure what a 2.5 would sound like in comparison. But I love it and would suggest it to anyone! worse case if you dont like it, return it and get the super 10.

After a long time of going back and forth, I just ordered a Flowmaster 50 Delta Flow. It was right in the middle of a stock sized muffler (Series 70) and an aggressive sound with the Series 40. Flowmaster's website says the Series 50 is mild to moderate sound and the Delta Flow adds a deeper tone and less drone. There are plenty of videos on Youtube of 5.0 F-150's with the 50 Delta Flow and for that matter, 40, 44, 10, and 70's for that matter.

There's no reason you can't run a straight pipe, that I know of.
But if you want a lot of noise, get a Roush setup. Oh yeah, you'll get drone too. And a hearing aid later on.

Just my 2 cents and how I operate but opinions are like *******s...
Back on topic, If/when I get the itch for an exhaust I'm leaning towards Borla. My biggest concern is noise when towing, I'm about 15 years past enjoying drone.
For pure noise a low numbered flowmaster will get you where you want.

If you want loud, I'd go with a Flowmaster 10, as suggested above, or with a short Magnapack or Dynomax Race Bullet.
They will likely drone like crazy, but it sounds like you don't care.

i prefer borla or any other open flow vs a chambered style like flow master.
