Stock exhaust systems on the 2015-2020 F-150 2.7L and 3.5L EcoBoost were tuned for near-silence, which means the turbocharged growl you paid for stays buried under layers of muffling. Thermal R&D's 3-inch catback exhaust lets that tone through, pairing a mandrel-bent T304 stainless steel construction with True Helmholtz Technology to deliver aggressive sound without the cabin drone that ruins highway trips.
True Helmholtz Technology keeps cruise comfortable. Rather than simply reducing muffling and hoping for the best, Thermal R&D targets the specific low-frequency resonance bands that cause drone. The Helmholtz tuning cancels those frequencies at the source, so the exhaust stays lively under throttle and composed at steady highway speeds.
Mandrel-bent T304 stainless steel throughout. Every bend in the 3-inch tubing preserves full interior diameter, maintaining consistent flow from the factory connection points all the way to the dual exit tips. T304 stainless resists corrosion and heat cycling through years of daily and towing use.
Dual exit tips, polished or coated. The system exits through dual tips available in a polished finish or a coated finish, letting owners match the exhaust to the truck's overall aesthetic. Both options are sized and positioned for the SuperCab 6.5-foot and SuperCrew 5.5-foot bed configurations.
The Savage Edition raises the volume without sacrificing street manners. Thermal R&D's Savage Edition swaps in a shorter muffler design that allows more of the EcoBoost's natural tone to come through. The result is a deeper, more pronounced note at idle and under throttle with stronger overall presence compared to the standard system, while still retaining the drone-free character of the True Helmholtz design.
Bolt-on installation, no modifications needed. The system uses factory mounting locations on 2015-2020 F-150 SuperCab and SuperCrew trucks, so no drilling, cutting, or fabrication is required. Hardware aligns to existing hangers for a clean, rattle-free fit.
