  • THIS SUPER 44 MUFFLER IS FOR SALE - Contact me for details.
    Please read the description.
    NOTE - The Super 44 is the final product.
    Stock start and revs, then start and revs with the Flowmaster Super 50 muffler, then start and revs with the Flowmaster Super 44 muffler - 2001 Ford Expedition 5.4L Triton V8.
    I finally have upgraded the exhaust system on my Expedition. I upgraded to the Super 50 Muffler by Flowmaster and noticed less than a 10% change in sound and was unhappy with it. I went back and got a Super 44 ordered and installed today. I love the sound. It sounds great outside and is not too noisy inside. I am really happy with it..the video does not do it full justice. Thank you very much to DJ at Meineke Car Care in Chesterfield, Missouri. Please comment / like / subscribe and be sure to watch in HD!

    Expeditions don't get nearly as much attention as they deserve. For being such a bohemith of a vehicle they get up and go and sound great

    Best way to get sound in the expedition is to remove the four catalytic converters and put either the super 44 fm or the super 10

    Great comparison video.Just put in a Flowmaster 40 Series in 03 Expedition 4.6 xlt and sounds awesome. I was originally gonna get a 50 series, but the shop only had the 40, and I am thankful that I opted for that instead. I recommend 40 or 44 as well. Outside sounds low, cruising at constant speed on expressway is quiet on the interior, and you will feel like a beast is behind you when you floor it.

      How is the interior drone on highway at 65-70 mph?

  • @rycophotography
    @rycophotography  12 років тому +1

    I very much recommend the Super 44. There was some drone inside, but not bad at all. Highway cruising was good, and it sounded amazing when you stomp on it. You should not be bothered by the noise inside at all with the 44. Good luck!

  • @rycophotography
    @rycophotography  13 років тому +1

    @qwertas1243 Yessir. It is called a resonator. Basically it dampens the sound. I didn't remove it because I thought it would affect emissions and also didn't want it to be too loud. I am still playing with the idea of removing it, but have not yet. I talked to the muffler shop, and it will not affect emissions, so no harm is done. If you are considering the Super 44, I highly recommend it. I love mine more and more every day. If you get it, post vids and let me know! I'd love to see.

  • @DougBe38

    This video is old af but thanks for posting. I'm trying to decide between the super 50 and super 44 on my 2000 f150 with the 5.4 engine. Super 50 sounds like the answer for me.

  • @lmadden6236
    @lmadden6236 12 років тому +2

    I have a 04 Expo and I had to take off two catylatic converters and resonator to make it sound good. I'm not sure what your year has but I had four cats on there from the factory, a little over kill if you ask me.

  • @phil-mq2rm
    @phil-mq2rm 7 років тому +2

    hate to bust your bubble but the 50 Series and the super 44 sound super quiet on your Expedition. it could be because you still have your stock piping behind it and in front of it. I do know those 5.4 liter Triton's have 4 catalytic converters on them. two on each side the first two being the biggest back to being the smallest. that right there is a sound killer

  • @COUNTRYBOY30268

  • @rycophotography
    @rycophotography  13 років тому +1

    @Fordfanforlife777 I noticed VERY little difference and was quite unhappy. That being said, this model year Expedition has a ridiculous amount of catalytic converters that dampen the sound, so unless you are putting the 50 series on an Expedition, it supposedly sounds excellent. I am extremely happy with the Super 44 on my truck though

  • @rycophotography
    @rycophotography  14 років тому +1

    @rudedogii Thanks! I don't own a shop haha they just treated me very well and replaced the Super 50 when I didn't like it right after it was installed. Yours sounds pretty good too..watched the vid of it.

  • @mikehenry4743

    Excellent review. I can certainly tell the difference. I like the 50 the best. I have a 97 F350, 7.5L with only 30K original miles. It has a series 40 on it and it is absolutely quiet. I don't know what the deal is, since everyone says they are loud. I guess it really comes down to the vehicle.

  • @ShamusOGrady2
    @ShamusOGrady2 12 років тому +1

    You can't break in a chambered muffler. That only works with glasspacks and mufflers like magnaflows that have actual packing to wear down. There's nothing to break down in a flowmaster. Any chance of the flowmaster sounding better is purely imaginative or your cats are needing to be replaced.

  • @rycophotography
    @rycophotography  13 років тому

    @leo12345641 Completely agreed with this. This was filmed the night I got it installed..it sounded absolutely phenomenal about a month after and kept sounding better and better. By the time I got rid of the truck, it was quite loud. It is a great muffler.

  • @1sinaloense3

  • @rycophotography
    @rycophotography  13 років тому

    @leo12345641 The difference is that your Tahoe does not have the ridiculous amount of Catalytic Converters that my Expedition had and it probably didn't have the resonator, so the Super 44 on your Tahoe probably sounds a lot louder and more aggressive.

  • @SweatyWelder68
    @SweatyWelder68 9 років тому +1

    The reason you don't hear much difference is this vehicle has whats called aresonator right before the tailpipe it makes it waaaayyyy quieter...

      @AdmiralRustyShackleford 8 років тому +1

      The resonator hardly quiets the sound. It's the 4 factory cats that make it quiet. Cut 2 out and it'll be a lot louder.

  • @rycophotography
    @rycophotography  13 років тому

    @shinnaraku2 Sorry, but I do not know enough about the mufflers to weigh in on this. If you have the same year and model truck that I had, it is definitely going to be quiet because this year / model had an excessive amount of Cats to keep emissions legal and it also made it much quieter.

  • @rudedogii
    @rudedogii 14 років тому +3

    Hey dude nice! I'm jealous! What do own a muffler shop? I just went from a Flowmaster 40 Series to a Hushpower, Sounded like crap. Now I got a Flowmaster Super 44 with 3inch inlet with two 2 1/2 inch outlets and still sounds like crap!

  • @rycophotography
    @rycophotography  13 років тому

    @Fordfanforlife777 Haha I am more than content with my Expedition. I think that since you have an older truck, the Super 50 should be excellent for you..great outside sound with lower interior resonance..the Super 44s were described as very aggressive tone and loud interior resonance..the Super 50, moderate exterior, mild interior. I think you will be happy with the 50

    im guessing ull be knowledgable on this, so, heres my question. so my expedition is a 2001 eddie buaer with a 5.4l triton v8. i see the catylitic converter, and the muffler, but theres also a smaller, muffler-ish can at the very end of the tail pipe, about a foot before the actual end of the pipe. u can see it in your video, with the first 2 exhaust systems. i was wondering if u knew what that was.

And they told me at my local exhaust shop that they wouldnt be able to install it because my tahoe has (double in single out) and that flowmaster did not make a super 44 muffler double in single out so they couldn't do it. Plz tell me.

I currently have a FlowMaster 40 Series on it and it's WAY too loud. I mean, it sounds VERY powerful, but just much too overpowering. Especially for occupants in the 2nd/3rd rows!!! Would a Super 50 Series, or a Super 44 eliminate the problem with all the noise from the 40 series, yet still sound mean, and better than the stock muffler??
