More camping! 1/2 the miles on the truck are from towing this around.

Here are some crappy iPhone pictures of the exhaust. I had the rear hanger lifted about 1.5" and the tips are painted semi-flat black.

Is that a full raptor exhaust system? How does it sound on the EB? Truck looks awesome by the way!

Yes, it's the full exhaust from a 2014 SuperCrew Raptor. The only issues I came across is the flange does not match and most feel the tips sit low (even on the Raptor). I resolved this by having the exhaust shop cut the flange off my stock exhaust and weld it onto the Raptor exhaust. They were able to do it right at the flange so the restriction is very minimal. They also added a new rear hanger and were able to raise the tips by about 1-1/2".


I think it sounds great - it's barely noticeably louder. I had to get a buddy to run his truck next to mine so I could tell. It does have a bit more rumble at idle is about all. No drone or in cab difference that I can tell.


user kwev has a full system for sale in Houston BTW, I just saw him post in another thread.

I like the looks of it and could definitely take a little more rumble, but first I want to add some ranch hands and get rid of these damn ford speakers...Speaking of that, what are you powering with that Alpine? Somehow I blew a tweeter the other day, and one of my door speakers makes an awful sound, probably blown as well.
