I'm new at this forum but if its not to much trouble go to http://www.jbaheaders.com/ and go to the sound clips for the chevy 5.3L and tell me what I need to do for my truck to sound like that please.I have a 2005 F-150 FX4. Like flowmaster, magnaflow, true duals, glasspacks, ect. I just want it to sound like that, I was going to do true duals with super 40s flowmasters. Will this set up be loud and what I'm looking for?

If you want loud and still want it to sound good, go with Bassani or Magnaflow. No guarantee it will sound like the Chevy 5.3. My 5.4 has everything you could imagine done to it and still sounds no-where near as good as my buddys cammed LS1 w/ LT's. His shit sound GOOD!

Why is that? Any way the true duals with flowmaster super 40s will this sound good.

Ive got a 4.6 wit jba headers, true dual 2chamber flowmasters and only two highflow converters and i think its sounds pretty dam good.... there are plenty of folks on the forum that know my truck that would say the same thing.... i wouldnt think that a 5.4 would sound all that different but i dont know because yours is the three valve

I've been told that pushrod engines like the 5.3 will have a more "burbley" sound than the OHC engines like your Ford. I have no idea if this is true though

idk how that sounds but i have the magnaflow lightning style pipes on my 5.4L and i love it. it has the old musclecar pop and backfire sound to it, i just love it, there should be a clip on magnaflow's site
