I would look into either magnaflow or borla. each longer than 14". and keep the exit at the back of the truck to get down on the drone since thats what your worried about. if you want 0 drone and dont mind spending the money, but a corsa muffler.

Alright so i pulled the trigger on a Magnaflow 11249 muffler, and magnaflow 35101 tip from www.wundercarparts.com, they were a top rated seller on ebay, so i called them up and they cut me a deal $105 shipped for both parts. Im pretty impressed with these guys, now it just has to get here with out any issues, then i would recomend them to yall. I wanted to thank everyone for their advice on this forum I couldnt have found any better experts.

Can we get a sound clip once you get everything installed? And of course pics.

You should be happy with that setup. Are you going to bolt it on yourself, or have it welded together?

Borla muffler for sure. Magnaflow cat-back owners with 09 & 10 models complain about highway drone. This should be resolved in the 11+ trucks with the new powertrains and new resonator.

He requested no drone..

That muffler will work perfect for you. Sorry I didn't get on to recommend it sooner, but the 18" body Magnaflow you ordered will work quite well though.

on that website if you actually choose a muffler, pipe size, what kind of tips, and mandrel or wrinkle bent pipes, it comes out to $319. You can buy a muffler and tips online through many vendors, bring it to a good shop, and have them weld it all together for under that price.
