Can someone please tell me... Magnaflow Question

I want a Magnaflow muffler for my truck. That's right, just the muffler. I want to know what will fit the best on a 2005 S'crew Lariat, and give it a nice mean sound without losing too much low end torque. I have already searched, and have been a member here for almost 2 years, so dont tell me to search. I already did! Gimme some opinions, sound clips, etc...

On a side note, Brad (aka bamorris2) let me know if you still have that muffler and if it's still for sale. I'd appreciate it. Thanks!

I just put on a 14" si/so muffler only on my 05 Screw. Sounds nice, not loud at all. Once I get into OD it sounds factory. Low rpm's it has a nice rumble to it. Perfect amount of drone. I'm glad I went with the 14", I think the 18" would have been way to quiet for me.

What's the part number? Sounds good to me, anyone else have any ideas? I dont want it to be so quiet that you cant tell that it has a muffler, I want it to scream at WOT. Anyone?

Are you going to put a chrome tip on? Or are you just replacing the muffler?

Nope. I've been wanting SOMETHING in the way of ehaust since I ghot rid of my Flowmaster equipped Mustang a while back. This is my only vehicle now, and I figure that 7 months/10k miles is enough to "break it in." I want it louder now.

Yeah, but duals are gay, IMO. I dont like dual exhaust on anything but Mustangs, and the occasional import (i.e., Acura TSX). Besides, I have to turn the truck in once another 16 months goes by, so I don't want to invest all that time and money into it. Pretty cool, huh?
