So I've had this truck for about 2 months and my birthday's Sunday so I figured I'd buy some nice exhausts without breaking the bank. I'm looking to spend around $60ish on the mufflers (2 cherrybombs cuz why not everyone has em) and as for the actual pipe I'm gonna need some insight on how I should go about getting those. Cheaper = better.

 

Cheapest is 1 muffler as far back as you can, split into two. Either a single in dual out, or a y pipe after the muffler.

If you have a pipe bender and mig welder, easy peazy. The bends will be difficult but pipe itself isn't too expensive.

Buying a kit will run a couple hundos, a shop may charge less. Call and ask, they do it all the time.

 

I'm pretty much set on true duals if I can get the pipes for at the most $125. My uncle is helping me get them and he works at O'Reilly so maybe his discount could maybe get me some pipes for pretty cheap? And who or what would I order the pipes from? Or would I just go out to a pick n pull and pull some pipes off of similar F-150s and hope for the best?

 

Yes you might find a truck already with duals at the junk yard. Thatd be cheap. Rust would be my only concern.

 

Say if I couldn't find anything going to a junk yard, where would I go then? I've never ordered exhausts before so I don't know who sells what for cheapest. And if I could get the pipes without a kit that would be nice because I have all the stuff I need in my garage. Lots of extra parts.

 

If you're located in Alberta, Canada, my truck had a stupidly loud dual exhaust system and it'll be heading to a part yard fairly soon. Exhaust wasn't damaged in the accident

 

Nah I'm in the states but thanks anyway haha

 

Don't consider anything but stainless, especially in Canada.

 

What engine do you have? 4.2, 4.6, 5.4? I seen a video a while back when deciding on my muffler with a guy that had 2 12" glasspacks. I would just look it up on Youtube and find something you like.

 

I got mine done for 264 including tips, muffler, and install. It's a single in dual out Flowmaster super 44 muffler with 4"x18" tips exiting at the bumper corners. When I leave school I can see people turn and look at it because it sounds so nice. All cats still on. It's PERFECT for me. Little drone on highway. Nothing that would drown out a conversation tho.
