I have a 2000 F150 4.6 4x4. I want to know what kind of muffler to buy and what the size in/out my exhaust is? (Don't know if I worded that correctly.. I'm 17 so give me a break lol)
I was considering a flowmaster super 44, but would love opinions and links to videos if anyone has any.
Also should I buy a intake off ebay for like $100 or just do the gotts mod?
Thanks in advanced!

And just do the gotts mod with a good drop in filter it'll save you money and be just as effective as a cold air intake

As a police dispatcher, I'm the poor sucker who has to take the complaints by phone and send the COPS to chase them down. Also as a hotrod car owner I have to be very careful where and when I drive it, so there is my logic.

I'm 17, I just want a nice sound to my truck. Not to be a kid and annoy people with it. Just know some mufflers can help with hp and mpg correct? But it can also make mpg worse so yeah lol.

Disagree you may, but in my state straight pipes only earn you a costly ticket.... 3 tickets earn you a suspended license. Then you can't drive you shiney Mustang, or anything for that matter!

These trucks run a 4 cat system and aren't THAT loud without a muffler. You can run it that way and be within programmed parameters as far CARB/NOX. In other words, these vehicles have 4 mufflers ahead of the rear and in the Y. However, what you loose is just a little torque, with the factory tune.
But yea, if your a complete idiot revving the snot out it in place, that would get old for anyone attempting to put up with it.

For your truck, you will need a 2.50" offset in/2.50" offset out muffler. If you are looking for a deeper tone with a mild exhaust note, check out a Flowmaster 70 Series muffler. A Flowmaster Super 50 Series muffler would also be a great choice for your F-150 if you want to achieve a moderately aggressive sound.
