I have the 4.6 and it sounds like a beast. Installed a Flowmaster 40 Series muffler, turned out the pipe in front of the rear tire, and added a 5" tip. Cost was low, and it sounds and performs great!

did you by chance have that out the back factory style first to compare to the side exit??

I have a magnaflo muffler that just replaced the factory muffler with the stock tail pipes and was looking for a bit more sound and i really like the side exit with that 5" tip you have
