Rather than relying on packing material or restrictive baffling to quiet a truck down, Thermal R\u0026amp;D tunes multi chamber Helmholtz resonators to cancel the specific low frequency tones responsible for highway drone. Every system is built from mandrel bent T304 stainless steel in the USA and backed by a Lifetime Manufacturer's Warranty, giving F-150 owners an aggressive, drone free exhaust note without sacrificing daily drivability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the B943-C920-CD?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe B943-C920-CD is a Thermal R\u0026amp;D 3 inch mandrel bent T304 stainless steel catback exhaust system built for the Ford F-150 Coyote 5.0L V8. It uses True Helmholtz Technology to remove cabin drone while giving the truck a deeper, more aggressive exhaust tone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWill this exhaust cause a check engine light or emissions issue?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. The system mounts behind the factory catalytic converters and does not alter any emissions equipment, so it will not trigger a check engine light or fail OBD monitoring in states that only test tailpipe emissions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDo I need any special tools to install this?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo specialized tools are required. A standard socket set, a jack and stands or a lift, and penetrating oil for the factory exhaust hangers are all you need for a driveway install.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHow long does installation typically take?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost installers complete the swap in forty five minutes to an hour and a half, depending on how stubborn the factory rubber hangers are and whether the truck is on a lift or jack stands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWill this fit my truck if it already has a leveling kit or lift installed?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The system uses the factory hanger locations and ground clearance is comparable to the factory setup, so a leveling kit or a modest lift will not cause clearance issues.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDo I need an alignment after installing this exhaust?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. This is an exhaust component, not a suspension part, so it has no effect on wheel alignment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIs there a break in period for the exhaust or does it sound like this right out of the box?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere is no break in period. The system sounds exactly like it does on install day, though checking clamp tightness after the first hundred miles is good practice as everything settles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHow is this different from just removing the muffler or running a straight pipe?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cp\u003eA straight pipe removes drone control entirely and is often too loud for daily driving. The Helmholtz chambers in this system are tuned to cancel the resonant frequencies that cause drone while still allowing an aggressive tone under throttle, so the cabin stays comfortable on long highway drives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the difference between the polished and black ceramic coated tip finish?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cp\u003eBoth finishes are T304 stainless steel tips built to the same dimensions. The polished finish gives a bright chrome like look, while the black ceramic coated finish gives a stealthier, blacked out appearance. Sound and performance are identical between the two.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this exhaust work with a tuner or aftermarket intake?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The catback system is compatible with any factory or aftermarket intake, tune, or intake manifold, since it only affects the exhaust path behind the catalytic converters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCan I run this dual exit system without any rear bumper modifications?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe dual exit tips are designed to clear the factory rear bumper opening on the applicable cab and bed configurations without cutting or trimming.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat if my part arrives damaged or I need to return it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cp\u003eContact Black Ops Auto Works support with your order number and photos of any shipping damage. Thermal R\u0026amp;D systems ship in a single carton with all clamps and hardware, and replacement components can typically be issued without requiring the full system to be sent back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eInstall Instructions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRaise and safely support the truck on a lift or jack stands, then allow the factory exhaust to cool completely before starting work.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApply penetrating oil to the factory rubber exhaust hangers and the clamp at the catalytic converter or downpipe connection.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisconnect the factory exhaust system from the hangers and remove it from the vehicle as a complete assembly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTest fit the new Thermal R\u0026amp;D front pipe section to the factory catalytic converter or downpipe flange and loosely secure the provided clamp.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstall the midpipe and muffler section, aligning the witness marks on each pipe with the provided double compression clamps before fully tightening.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstall the tailpipe section into the rear hanger, then slide on the exhaust tip and secure it with the provided band clamp so the tip sits level with the bumper opening.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWork from front to back and tighten every clamp fully, double checking hanger engagement and tip clearance around the bumper.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStart the engine and inspect all connections for exhaust leaks, then road test and recheck clamp torque after the first 100 miles.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"Thermal R\u0026D","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46346218864719,"sku":"B943-C920-CD","price":999.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1062\/7920\/files\/B943-C920-CD_5.jpg?v=1785788642","url":"https:\/\/www.blackopsautoworks.com\/products\/2015-2020-ford-f150-coyote-v8-3in-dual-exit-catback-coated-b943-c920-cd","provider":"Black Ops Auto Works","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
