Default Louder?

My 2006 XLT currently has a Gibson dual split rear exhaust which gives the truck a decent sound but I'd still like it a little louder. Any opinions on how to achieve this?

turn the exhaust manifold upside down and just run two pipes out the top of your hood.

High flow cats or dynomax bullet muffler. Magnaflow magnapack is also a loud muffler.

So would I be able to put the dynomax muffler on to my Gibson exhaust? Sorry if it seems like a dumb question but don't know a whole lot about exhausts

Do you have a single muffler with dual outs? One pipe in, two out or is there a y pipe after a single in/single out muffler? I would assume single in, dual out muffler. You could get the muffler and a y pipe to keep the dual exit. You can crawl under and look or post a picture of your muffler setup.

Dynomax bullet and y pipe is less than eighty bucks. Just need to figure out if you have 2.5 or 3 inch piping to the muffler. You could also do true duals if you wanted an all new system.

I have a stainless works bullet and 3 inch cat back and coming out right infront of pass tire. I like the bullet bc driving its loud and mean sounding but just sitting in driveway running you can still talk with some one. Also I do not have drone in the cab. I love the bullets. I will put a pic of my set up later
