Ecoboost Exhaust. What are you running?
I just got a 14 XLT. It has 400 miles on it. I love the truck but it is waaayyy too quiet for my taste. I have been listening to exhaust clips on you tube and found a few I like. I like the Corsa DB at idle but found a video of it on take off, It sounded like a pissed off bumble bee. I know that the 6 is never going to sound like a V-8, I get that. Is there any aftermarket exhaust out there that doesn't sound like a 50hp Evinrude outboard on steroids? I like the sound of the AFE at idle as well but I am guessing that when its strung out it will sound similar. Hard to determine sound on a cheap laptop as well. Any real world input would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

Go SOLO! I have the 4" Solo Performance system with the Solo Mach-46 muffler substituted for the MR400 Resonator. It sounds nothing like V6. It has a sound of its own and is very, very deep rumble. On a scale of 1 - 10, I would say it is a 6. It is a completely badass system. I just installed the AFE Stage 2 intake today and I feel like it made my exhaust louder. I'm not sure if that's possible but that is what I noticed.
The Solo system has absolutely NO drone and is a straight flow-through muffler. I highly recommend it!!!!

Thank you for your input guys. I will look into both systems.
Mudwieser, I absolutely love your truck. I wanted white when I bought mine. The white one I was looking at had cloth seats though. My 04 crew had issues with staining the gray cloth so I bought a ingot silver with gray leather instead. There is just something about a white vehicle with blacked out windows. I just had my fronts done today to match the rears. It gives it a better look in my opinion. I have only had it for a week so I guess we all have to start somewhere. lol

MBRP SS 4" single. It has a fairly deep tone and is pretty loud. I get a little drone around 2,500 rpm, but it's not obnoxious. Sounds a lot like a diesel. Overall, I'm pretty happy with the sound. Certainly not a V8, but not bad for a turbo V6.

Have mine straight piped all the way with the upgraded catted y pipe, It sounds the best to me cause you can hear the turbos singin at idle and it absolutely screams at WOT!
