Make sure you go with the single inlet dual outlet muffler, I wouldn't true dual it. It wont be that loud with the stock cats ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i80Gx...e=channel_page ) , It will sound much healthier with a single muffler and since the the truck doesn't have enough power to exhale though the true duals its not worth it performance wise.

Magnaflow all the way. S.S. is worth the extra money.

Think twice about a Flowmaster set up.

you know if flowmasters didn't sound so good you wouldn't be considering switching from your maggies to flows


I dunno what is but I just don't like the sound of the maggies or SLP loudmouth's when the rev's are up

Maggy vs Flow, I believe it all depends on what you want to get outta it. When I first got my mag I hated it man i wanted it off of the truck. But the more flowmasterd V8 trucks I was around the less I wanted one, they are very generic sounding on V8 motors especially trucks. I enjoy hearing the maggy open up as I lean into the throttle. IMO
I have had flowmasters myself so..

ya caught me. I do like the sound, I just dont like the non stainless steel part mainly. When I pop my Super 44s in this spring i'm gonna make sure their primed and painted properly with high temp paint, and see how long they last. I'm keeping the Magnaflows ofcoarse, not sure if I will permanently keep the Super 44s in, we'll see.

I seen some people dont like them, I like the sound I think it sounds fine. I hate straight pipe WOT sounds, but Magnaflows tone makes it perfect. My truck sounds good atleast, but has gotten much louder since the original recordings of the videos in my signature.

Well my Banks Powerpack is installed and I 'm very impressed with how well every thing went together, everything fit perfectly and it sounds great I will take a video soon. I have it set on economy mode right now and I'm impressed as to how well it performes, cant wait to do some comparison tests.
