I recently just straight pipe with a 4 inch stainless steel tip on my 5.4l 2002 fx4 f-150! It sounds good right now ,but my #7 coil pack is bad and my truck is still misfiring after I fix that I want to make my straight pipe louder ! What can I do to make it idle louder and just overall be louder haha!

My brother has a 2010 fx4 f150 and has the same setup and his sounds so much better but I think it's cause his type has more valves idk

Anything helps first time doing this I know I'm a noob to the forum world

Sell your truck and buy a v10 or diesel?

In actuallity:
Remove your cats. After that you don't have much else to do.

I have to ask...what is the obsession with a trying to get as loud as possible? At a demolition derby it's fine but on your daily driver? It pisses me off hearing that obnoxious loudness...

I wish I could have a diesel 7.3 !

I don't know I just want to make it deeper at its idle And have a louder sound!

Should I get some free flowing cats?

Remove your rear cats and weld in a piece of pipe

I did the rear cat delete with my stock y pipe.... Then right after my cab it's Y'ed to duals and its pretty loud... My girlfriend thinks its too loud if that says anything.. Lol!

I want to keep the single pipe it sounds good right now I think if I were to get some high flow cats it would sound deeper and have that louder idle sound but idk haha

The cheapest way to go would be cut out the rear cats.... But I'm in highschool with nooooo money lol with a 4 inch tip that should sound mean!

this is just an idea i had in mind.. after your cats up the pipe size to 4" or 4 1/2" piping and in theory this should make your truck louder.. and here is why.. so if you shout through PVC piping the small normal PVC piping you use in sprinkler systems you get a sound right but it not very loud... but if you shout through a big pipe than it echos. so i would think if you up the pipe size it would echo the sound and be louder. now how much bigger do you have to go i would think maybe 4 1/2" or maybe 4". now i have not tried this but always thought about it. if anyone has other thoughts on this please share

Put a an exhaust cutoff valve right after the headers, press a button loud full open exhaust, press it again shuts it back to your mufflers and what not can't get much louder then that
