And as thelariat said, the shop will certainly try to sell you their "brand of choice".

Agree with all that!

^ that then! I have a SIDO Offroad Roush (which is a Borla muffler) kit on my truck and it's loud, but you can keep it almost dead silent if you drive a certain way, watching the RPM. You can always be considerate when in the neighborhood late at night and early in the morning
so you left the resonator in or Out?

My truck is an '06 5.4 and I didn't have a resonator, just one huge muffler.
This is completely based off of one truck and could be entirely false: I work at a car dealership and A guy brought his 5.0 in for an appraisal and it was very loud. I mean LOUD. I climbed under it, and all he had was one small muffler, otherwise the exhaust was stock. He had the muffler and resonator taken out and then the small muffler added in. So maybe the new trucks are much more "free-flowing" and they are automatically louder than a 5.4 with the same exhaust set up? Not sure. But I've definitely never seen a 5.4 that was louder, even straight piped. Not without long tubes

Post a vidya, bamablue! Sounds like a sweet setup. I'm considering switching to something very similar.

i'll do my best to try to get some sort of video. All i have immediately available is my phone but Ill ask some of my friends with kids if they have any video cameras (they usually do).
