performance wise both are too similar to see any benefit in either... the 40 is louder.. i have a 40... i love the loudness of it... many people do not liek the noise... if you dont want it loud, get the 50... if you like it loud, get the 40....

Ive got a 50 series on my F-150. It has a nice, mellow tone. It doesnt sound like a late model stock car but you can still hear it. I would say it sounds good without sound obnoxious. It has a nice, V8 rumble to it, much like a musclecar.
You can hear it when you are accelerating but when cruising at a steady speed you almost cant hear it.
My brother put the same exact muffler on his '92 F-150 (302 V8) and his isnt anywhere near as loud as mine is. I think he should have gotten the 40 series because his doesnt sound much different than stock. It has a nice rumble to it but its not as if people look when he drives by. My truck on the other hand (5.4L SOHC Triton V8), when you drive by, people ALWAYS look. I like how my truck sounds when you fire it up on a cold winter morning. When its really cold out it has a nice bark to it.
Cap'n
