@Gamrman3 I completely agree. I have the 18" on my truck sounds great on cold startups and when you get into it. I do wish I would have gotten the 14" for a little more sound and aggression on a warm idol. I can't complain to much, the 18" Magnaflow muffler was only $99.

@Gamrman3 why do you want a 14"?? also how do you like the intake? i plan to get a ram air hood also

did the edge programmer help with the throttle response

@MCP2002 WOW! The 14 does sound bad ass!!!!!

@Gamrman3 Hey just got a 08 f150 limited edition, im going to buy the volant cai, one question, will the ram air scoop work for me too? or will i have to cut into the bumper? did the intake help you alot with hp? and is the tuner worth the money, im looking to buy one of those as well so.
thanks.

@Gamrman3 Oh no biggie at all. I figured you had the numbers reversed. but I wanted to be sure. I love how Magnaflows sound on our trucks. Its the length that drive me crazy. I mean the 11, 14, 18, 22, 24, and 30 have a totally different sound!!!. 14 it is. Thank you for your help brother.
No worries! What about the 18" do you not like/regret? I have heard so many conflicting opinions regarding the 18" vs 14" its driving me crazy. I heard the 18" is perfect and the 14" drones like crazy betwee 1700-2000 rpms, the I read somewhere else that the 14" has hardly any drone at all and it isn't noticable on the freeway. Ugghh....so confusing. lol Wish Magnaflow made a 14" kit.
I am actually considering the Corsa Db 24310 exhaust as well.

@MCP2002 The ONLY regret I have about the 18" is that when the truck is warm especially during the summer months I wish it sounded a little more agressive. It still sounds aggressive, just not like it does when its cool. I cant speak for the 14", but the 18" has ZERO drone at highway speeds. I'ev used cruise ranging from 40-85mph and have yet to have reason to complain.

The 18" is quieter than the 14". Are you getting your mufflers reversed, Gamrman? Your video above is of the Magnaflow kit with the 18" muffler I believe. All of the Magnaflow kits have 18" mufflers.
Heatherandpaul2, check out the videos by 08Fx4. He has a few of his truck with the Magnaflow #12198 SI/DO muffler (3"ID/2.5"OD). Also, check out the video from a guy named macaboo. He has a 2010 with a Magaflow #12198 as well. IMO, his truck sounds amazing. The 14" sounds like a happy medium.

@MCP2002 No, sorry, I confused my self. This is a SI/DO 18" magna. Magna offers 21, 18, and 14" mufflers in this style. I went with 18 to be on the safe side. I wish I had gone with 14"
