  1. 2021 carbonized gray Lariat leveled with 275 65 20

    Well- it’s been awhile and just realized what I typed. I actually used an AutoSpring rear 2” block to replace the factory 1 1/4”. So raised the rear 3/4”.
  2. MBRP exhaust on my 5.0

    Sounds great! I’m a big MBRP fan. In my case, I decided to test the “race” designation on their 4” system. Well- they nailed it. It is a deep, feel it in your chest exhaust note. Wide open is just insane. Forget letting cylinder deactivation kick in. It’s obvious. Really obvious. I use tow mode...
  3. Powerboost Cavitating Noise on Cold Start

    Ford replaced the transmission and torque converter in my 21 5.0 truck. After three attempts at replicating it, I finally had a cold snap where I had the dealer park it on a lift (elevated) overnight. I asked them to stand under the truck and remote start it. Next thing I know the service...
  4. MBRP catback on 5.0 V8 - wow it’s loud

    It’s an after axle- same location as stock
  5. Does your 5.0 sound really loud on a cold start?

    I like your user name. I traded a 2018 F250 for this truck and I really do miss it. I’ll have another. Story for another time. Anyway- I’ve added a 4” MBRP exhaust and it completely drowns out the noise. I tried posting a video on here before but failed miserably.
  6. MBRP catback on 5.0 V8 - wow it’s loud

    That's the one I am considering. My son has a 2011 5.0 with a 4" Diamond Eye catback and that's why I bought this one. His has FAR less drone inside than my 21.
  7. MBRP catback on 5.0 V8 - wow it’s loud

    I’m gonna say both. It just booms inside. I love the sound and bought a Coyote with intentions of doing an exhaust. Local driving is just fine. Interstate is a bit much inside.
  8. MBRP catback on 5.0 V8 - wow it’s loud

    Hey fellas In a leap back to my youth and my foxbody days, I decided to go straight to the big boy and installed the MBRP 4” race exhaust. And like their video says- it’s “loud”. The install was simple. Had factory exhaust out in one piece in 15 mins. New one on in 30. Great quality! After...
  9. 5.0 idle sounds?

    I don’t- but go to https://www.mbrp.com/products/s5209409 to watch the 5.0 video portion and you’ll get the best sound. i tried on my iPhone but it doesn’t capture it. i bought that kit and it fit perfectly.
  10. 5.0 idle sounds?

    Same. Well- actually I decided to relive my foxbody youth and throw a catback on the truck yesterday. I can say I can’t hear any idle noise now. Note to self: When the MBRP guy on YT says their 4” system is labeled as “race”, maybe he’s just being honest. I’ve got to say- I’m in love with the...
  11. Does your 5.0 sound really loud on a cold start?

    Yes on oil. I changed the factory fill at 5K and am using Royal Purple with a Wix filter. The oil usage is almost non existent. I finally found another post (cant remember the forum) and a guy posted a video and it was identical to my sound. After start up, there is about a 2 sec delay and the...
  12. 5.0 idle sounds?

    OP- I finally found a video that sounds EXACTLY like my 21! It sounds horrible. dealer acknowledged the noise- hard to miss it. Ford customer care got involved and engineering felt it was my transmission. So last week I got a brand new transmission, torque converter, and cooler. Guess what? To...
  13. Does your 5.0 sound really loud on a cold start?

    Maybe it is? Mine seriously is so loud I don't like starting it around coworkers when its cold. My buddy's 5.3 starts with a loud exhaust note and no noise up front. My engine note is drowned out with a bunch of odd whining, grumbling sounds coming from underneath the engine bay. My 2013 5.0 was...
  14. Does your 5.0 sound really loud on a cold start?

    I have a 21 F150 I bought back in October. Lariat Sport, 4x4, 5.0, 2KW outlet, dual alternator, etc. It now has 6K. Since new, on a cold start, the drivetrain somewhere is really loud. Not a knock or rattle. It sounds like a cavitating pump / growl. As soon as it warms up, its quiet. Dealing...
  15. Have a case number with Ford over my cold start noise

    Just providing a follow up- truck now has 5500 miles. Dealer at my request put truck on lift overnight and did a remote start with camera rolling from under the truck. Sent to Engineering. They are replacing trans, torque converter, and cooler. The sound is loudest at front pump / torque...
