Default Which should i go with......

Alright fellas, im fixin to get a new truck over spring break if everything goes right... but anyways it will be a 05 with the 4.6 and i was wondering which would be a louder exhaust, true dual with no mufflers and a h pipe, or flowmaster SIDO or something like that (i dont plan on spendin a whole lot of money on the exhaust i know a shop that will do it without mufflers for around 200), im not that worried about performance, i just want to hear it run when i drive because yes i am young , and would a x pipe or h pipe be better

thanks for the replies

Thanx The tuner might a little with the more agressive fuel maping etc, but the sound is the intake and exhaust mainly...4.6 will still sound pretty close....I believe that it is going to be as deep but not as loud if that makes sense.

All of the sizes will depend on the setup that you use. SIDO, SISO, Duals, etc....

Looks pretty clean...
Mileage? Price??

I do not have experience with that muffler, but try and find the cutout or call flowmaster and see if the flow design is different with the second incoming source.
