We built this exhaust for Maverick owners who want their truck to sound better without turning it into something they don't want to drive every day.
From the front pipes all the way back, the full 3" tubing improves flow and delivers a more aggressive exhaust note, giving you a deeper, throatier sound under throttle while staying smooth and controlled at cruising speeds.
Our True Helmholtz Technology keeps unwanted resonance out of the cabin, so the exhaust note stays enjoyable on long drives — not just impressive in the driveway.
Since the front pipes connect after the catalytic converters, emissions equipment stays untouched. No lights, no issues, just a better-sounding truck.
⚠️ Spare Tire Fitment Notice
Due to the routing of the 3" tubing on the Ford Maverick, installation requires removal of the full-size spare tire. To continue carrying a spare, owners can relocate to a compact spare or swap to a tire repair kit.
⚠️ This exhaust is NOT compatible with vehicles equipped with a Gasoline Particulate Filter (GPF). Installing on a GPF-equipped vehicle may cause a Check Engine Light.
Does my Maverick have a Gasoline Particulate Filter (GPF)?
The easiest way to check is using your VIN:
If your vehicle has a GPF, this exhaust may trigger a Check Engine Light.

"Exhaust looks great and sounds amazing. The company was great to work with. The tip I had originally ordered wasn't available at the time, they sent out the exhaust with a different style tip so I could install it and use it. When the tip I had ordered became available they sent out the correct one."

"My Mave is a non-GPF '25 in Desert Sand/Black Appearance package. The black twin tips look and sound great. HP gain was nice. Picked up 8-15 ponies. If there's no GPF lised on the under hood sticker you have a 250 hp Maverick."

"It completely changes the way your maverick sounds at all the rpm. The cabin noise is noticeable but it’s not bad. Definitely something to get used too. Not however too loud or obnoxious. I installed on my own took about an hour I used truck ramps and followed the video this is the first cat back iv ever purchased as well. Good quality easy install for a novice."

"The Thermal R&D Maverick Lobo exhaust is a solid choice if you’re looking to wake up your vehicle without going overboard. The build quality stands out right away—clean welds, durable materials, and a design that feels like it’ll hold up well over time. Sound-wise, it strikes a nice balance: deep and aggressive under throttle, but not overly droney during normal cruising, which makes it livable for daily driving. Performance gains aren’t night-and-day, but throttle response feels a bit sharper, and there’s a noticeable improvement in overall tone compared to stock. Installation is generally straightforward for a bolt-on system, took all of 20 minutes. Overall, it’s a well-rounded exhaust that delivers both style and substance without being obnoxious. Went with the turndown option, gives a great OEM appearance."

"If you are questioning getting this for your 2. 0T Maverick, just do it. It sounds amazing and completely transforms the truck. 10:10. I have no complaints at all."
— Blake L. (5/5)
"Perfect exhaust, not unbearably loud but not weak at all, that being exactly what i was looking for. Highway speeds sounds amazing and calms down. When idle it sounds perfect. I have not heard any drone or have had any problems so far. Installion was not hard at all. Highly recommend this product. 10/10. The only non significant problem I had was the qr code thats given for the instructions does not work and I had to look the video up, but thats a problem separate from the exhaust itself. I hope to see more products from you guys for different car upgrades and components in the future."

— John D. (5/5)
"The install was an absolute breeze, it sounds amazing, looks OEM+, I took it on a 5. 5 hour drive to the beach and heard zero to little drone. Absolutely a 10/10 and I recommend it highly!"

Heads up for 2025+ Ford Maverick EcoBoost owners:
Some 2025+ Ford Maverick EcoBoost vehicles may be equipped with a Gasoline Particulate Filter (GPF) depending on trim level and production market. Installing this exhaust on a GPF-equipped vehicle may trigger a Check Engine Light.
Does my 2025+ Ford Maverick EcoBoost have a GPF?
The easiest way to check is your VIN or the Vehicle Emissions Control sticker located under the hood. If GPF is listed, this system is not compatible with your vehicle.
Example of where GPF may appear on the emissions sticker:
