Cherry Bomb Extreme Muffler
I am thinking of putting a single-in Dual-out Cherry Bomb Extreme Muffler on my 04' 5.4 liter F150. I want it to be pretty loud, but not crazy loud. Right now I have a Delta Flow 40 Series Flowmaster- one in, tw0 out muffler which is too quiet. I looked at Cherry Bomb's website and it says that the Extreme muffler is recommended for Off-road and racing applications. I wandered if anyone has them on their 5.4 three valve and could tell me how it sounds. The cats are still there, also. Thank you.

5.4 Triton I would mess around with the cats and headers instead of the muffler. The 40 series is one of the loudest! I have a borla and I cut out the two rear cats and that really added an exhaust note. Then I added dynatech headers w/ hi flow cats and that really opened up the exhaust. Or you can take out your 40 series muffler and just get a 10 series race muffler from flowmaster. Hope that helps as far as an say on the cherry bombs sorry that I cant help.

I have the extreme on my 04 5.4 and I think it sounds good. Even at 60-80mph it is not annoying. You deffinitely hear it but I haven't had any passengers complain. I have it set up from the cat back.

Rather than "how loud is it", can anyone describe (a dyno sheet would be nice) it's performance gains/losses?
If you just want noise, remove pieces of your exhaust; stop when when you get the desired sound level. You'd save money.

I can't just remove pieces of my exhaust.........We have emissions testing in Pa. which means if it came with cats.......It must have cats. That's why I am interested in knowing the sound of the cherry bomb extreme.

if you want it sick loud throw a cut out valve on there. then you can run it without cats or anything. then when you do your emissons test just close iti up. i live in cali and thats all i did. havnt failed a test yet. just make sure you get a good one. aluminum ones have a tendance to warp.
