    Kinda new to the modding game... Was wondering if anybody had any experience with the Magnaflow off-road pro exhaust system and/or the Magnaflow direct-fit catalytic converters, and possibly how the two might work together... I have an 06' with a lot of small problems, one of those being an exhaust leak after my cat. wanted to fix this (duh) just seeking some advice.

    Sounds like you are really contemplating the exhaust. On the cheaper side, why not just replace the donut Gasket?

    A friend has the offroad catback. Thing sounds pretty mean down low in the RPM range. Gets a tad raspy in the higher ranges. I'm looking at the same, but its a few months out.

    This vid is a pretty fair representation of the sound (as played on my TV)

    Your truck has 4 cats. Where is the leak? What are your goals? Where are you located?

    it is on the connection between the final cat and the pipe that leads to the muffler. Somehow the piece was bent so out of shape that I can't fix it. I just don't want my truck to sound like a lawn mower and some extra HP wouldn't hurt :) I'm in GA so I don't have to worry about any stupid emission laws
