Magnaflow Vs Flowmaster Help

I have a flowmaster exhaust on my truck now and im thinking that im going to get the magnaflow exhaust that comes out in front of the back tires but I am worried that the magnaflow will be to quiet. I was wondering has anyone heard both and whitch is louder. If anyone knows what the loudest exhaust on the market is thats a catback kit please let me know. The only reason that im looking to change exhausts is because after this winter hear the tips have little rust spots starting all over them and I think they look bad now so im starting over. Any help would be great I just dont want to spend $500.00 and not be happy with it.

I've heard that the Banks Monster is the loudest, but haven't heard the Magnaflow that exits before the wheel. The Roush that exits before the wheel is very loud, listed as Off Road Use Only...... I have a Magnaflow SISO I just installed tonite and love it... IT's louder than stock , but won't give you Drone head.... Drove 120 miles home tonite after install, 18.1 MPG with Edge Evo Level 2... i'm stoked

I have the Single Chamber Flowmaster, it's an Offroad only exhaust and is loud as hell with the rear cats off. I really shouldn't even post the video as it does not sound the same in real life but it's the latest video I have. Make sure you get your rear cats off (it's also illegal) and you'll be impressed. When you're barely on the pedal it GROWLS, sounds very carbureted-like/muscley.

That billyboat exhaust clip for the F-150 is not the 3v 5.4L, I guarantee it (no offense). Hope someone buy's it to verify this but that doesn't sound anything like the F-150. Every exhaust I've been through has seemed to amplify the sound, not completely change it. Don't get me wrong, it alters it significantly but not beyond 5.4L recognition. I've been through No Muffler, Magnaflow SIDO, and this SIDO Flowmaster, and now No Cats w/Flowmaster, the sound has always been similar. The 5.4's also do not rev down that quick, even after pulley's, etc the 5.4L still does not build and drop rpms so fast.

Marco, the loudest is the Single Chamber Racing Muffler, the one in the video above.

You thinking of getting that billboat exhaust? Ask them if it turns out to sound nothing like the clip, can you return it for a full refund
