Default Exhaust

I just bought a 1993 f150, it has a built 5.0 and a vortech supercharger, with bbk headers, and some magnaflow muffler on it. It doesn't sound too bad, but its just too quiet for me. Any ideas on what kind of exhaust i should go for?

if it's a bigger magnaflow, a smaller one would do better sound wise. otherwise, though personally I'd be adverse, a straight pipe.

I was thinking a flowmaster super 10 or something. But i have never heard one on a 5.0 before. Straight piping wouldnt be too bad. I had a 5.0 mustang that i straight piped, and it sounded great.

flowmaster is junk lol. I'd sooner straight pipe. I personally love my 14'' magnaflow though.

I respectively disagree. Flowmaster is not junk. I have enjoyed them on more than one vehicle. To the OP.... A straight up 40 will sound nice on a supercharged 5.0.
