Hey guys
my name is Raynard A.K.A Ray Ray im a 26 y/o underwriter....I purchased my 2002 expedition 4.6 bout mid-December off a guy from Craigslist for $1000.00 after talking the guy down to $600.00. He let me have it. He told me the motor needs a head job and a good cleaning. So I towed it home had to put a serpentine belt and a new belt tensioner on started it up and ran like crap but it ran. So I was going to drive it to a local machine which is like 2 blocks away, but the dam rims wouldn’t move because the genius put 15x10 rims on it…smh…so after buying a set of 20” for a local rim shop for 200.00 rims and tires. Got it to the shop and the guy tells me it needs new heads so I put completing getting them ported and polished, but the guy talked me out of it plus I need the truck asap…so after 1500.00 for that…I’m on the road love my truck since then I have out 10k miles on it…


Plans: cold air intake the one with the filter enclosed, Programmer (not real sure on which one yet), and Duals I wanna say flow masters 40 series with 3” piping (I want that deep sound), And a transmission kit that I seen

I want to get another 4.6 and get it bored out and heads port and polished father down the line…let me know what you guys think im just really looking for a more low end power with a deep tone budget round $3k

Welcome RayRay85. I used two magnaflow mufflers with 2.5" pipes a crossover and 18" tips for a tue dual exhaust. It has the LOUD deep sound your looking for.

Ray, what you said, has got me worried. I'm hoping the wife doesn't sell me, being that I could also use a head job and a good cleaning. Time will tell. Welcome to the site.

With that kind of budget, you just need to find someone that does a really good job and get exactly what you want and let him know how you want it. BTW welcome. :D Glad to see someone else from Jax. :D

The bigger the rim, the less smooth of a ride. But it is up to you. I would want more tire in between the road and me making a smoother ride.
