Deep sounding dual exhaust on V6?

[Jake709]

I have a 2007 Sport Trac XLT with the 4.0 Liter V6. I was just looking for a dual exhaust system to make it sound louder and deeper.

I like the Flowmaster 40 and 44 so far but I do about 20 hours of highway driving a month so I don't want an unbearable amount of drone in the cab. Are they bearable for cab noise?

I'm an Industrial Mechanic so I know it won't sound just like a V8, so you don't need to tell me I should have bought a V8, haha.

Just want to enhance my sound and I'm new to the Sport Trac and really don't know what way to go to get a loud, deep dual exhaust system.

Thanks!

This was my 2007 4.0 with a Flowmaster 40 series. Everything else was stock.

This is my current 2010 4.6 with the 40 series and the resonator removed.

I'd say save your money towards another mod. GL.

You may want to consider a tube diameter a little bit larger like 2 1/2" not 2 1/4". It will change the depth a bit. On my Ranger I had a Magnaflow muffler, mid sized not larger length, and a Moroso spiral flow muffler for a resonator. It gave both depth and sound. Maybe open up the outlet of the cats to 2 1/4" to a "Y" pipe and 2 1/2" outlet... You will gain some in the sound level and increase the flow quite a bit. I won't hurt the torque because of the restrictive manifold and cats would still be inline too.

Duals tend to make a V6 sound weaker. I have a Gibson single system and it sounds really good for a V6.

I have a Magnaflow knock-off (Flo-pro) on my 4.6 single exhaust and it has a deep tone with no highway drone. Took off the stock resonator. I chose the largest size (24" I think) so it doesnt sound too redneck. installed cost was $100 and 30 minutes for a nice welded system. Expected life of the muffler is 3-5 yrs, because it is a packed muffler, unlike the Flowmaster design, which will not deteriorate.
