Top Ford Powerstroke Magnaflow Exhaust Kits

2008-2019 Ford Powerstroke MagnaFlow DPF Series Filter-Back

To best get an idea of what a Magnaflow exhaust is really made of, you have to start by being introduced to the 2008-2019 Ford Powerstroke MagnaFlow PRO DPF Series Filter-Back and 2017-2019 Ford Powerstroke MagnaFlow Black DPF Series Filter-Back. These dpf-back exhausts are meticulously crafted using CNC precision robotic manufacturing techniques that allow for maximized benefits in sounds and performance, with a direct-fit design to make for an easy installation process. Each of these exhausts is constructed from a weight-optimized, durable, corrosion resistant stainless steel that comes with a polished finish in the PRO Series version or black finish in the Black Series version. The main piping is 5" in diameter allowing for optimal exhaust flow to produce small gains in horsepower and torque. The exhaust makes its way through this piping, then exits through the single passenger side rear exit with 6" polished or black welded-single wall-angle cut-rolled edge-intercooled tip. All of the superior design features and premium materials are great, but what about the sounds? As you rev up your engine, you will hear MagnaFlow’s signature sound in all its glory. With these dpf-back exhausts, the sound is mild and soothing from inside the cab, but sporty and moderate when you hear it from the outside. It is not a sound that is going to have you covering your ears in pain. Just loud enough and definitely confident enough to change the way others see your Ford Powerstroke build.

2011-2019 Ford Powerstroke MagnaFlow DPF Series Dual Filter-Back

The previously mentioned dpf-backs are an awesome choice, but since they only have one exit, they can look similar to the factory exhaust at first glance.

If one exit is not enough, you need to know about the 2011-2019 Ford Powerstroke MagnaFlow PRO DPF Series Dual Filter-Back or 2011-2019 Ford Powerstroke MagnaFlow Black DPF Series Dual Filter-Back. Exhaust passes through the 4" diameter mandrel bent main piping, then exits through the dual same side behind passenger rear exit with 5" polished or black welded-on-single wall-angle cut-rolled edge-intercooled tips. With the same great performance and signature Magnaflow exhaust tone, this dual tip version of the dpf-back is perfect for those looking for a little extra to separate themselves from the look of your factory or aftermarket single exit exhausts.
