    Do a search, there's tons of threads on this stuff already.

    Also, visit Youtube for sound clips.

    Ya can't go wrong with any exhaust upgrade. These trucks are silent from the factory.

    The magna flow doesnt really give it a "TRUCK" sound if you know what I mean. It kinda gives it a little rice rocket sound, thats just my personal opinion. I wanted flowmaster but the guy told me it would sound like a rice rocket if I put flowmaster on it, so he suggested magnaflow. But the flowmaster sounds way better. Im going to put flowmaster one in the summer.

    I've heard that the Flowmaster sounds way better than the Magnaflow.

    But how do you compare it to the Banks Monster exhaust?

    Which one of these two would you take?

    I had purchased Magnaflow catback system. Within about two weeks I changed the muffler out for aeroturbine. Someone already said magnaflow doesn't sound "truck like" at that was my problem with it. You really had to give it some gas to know you had an exhaust.
