2.3 exhaust update

any one find a system for the 2.3L such as Magnaflow? Ive always loved the sound of them and have had them on previous trucks but hose have always had bigger engines.

I think you'll find that there are a couple of owners on here that had Magna's rust out. I went with Borla on my '19 Lariat and will add their rear section for my Raptor. Borla are stainless and will never rust, out last the truck probably, also had their catback on my O2' Mustang GT. I had chrome tips but come in black too.

not really worried about the rusting issue.... Im in Arizona an we don't get much rain... Ive had Magnaflow before and never had a rust issue... Im thinking of just replacing the muffler and not the whole exhaust.... maybe go with dual pipes out the rear... gonna be checking with my muffler guy later today

That climate and lack of snow and therefore absence of salt on the roads 3-5 months a year would make a big difference. Borla makes a really nice complete replacement for Raptors but not sure if the make anything beyond a catback for 2.3 and 2.7s.. Magnaflow on 5.0 motors really sound nice, but still would go with Borla.

Swapped my stock muffler out with this one from Flowmaster https://www.summitracing.com/parts/flo-71419 sounds good nice little fumble at idle and even better at rpm rise. It’s the same muffler they sell in the cat back system. I just didn’t see spending $500+ so I just swapped muffler.
