    I kept the stock piping and burned in a
    $122 Magnaflow 12256 : 2.5"/2.5" Inlet/Outlet, 5x8x18" Oval, Stainless Steel, Satin Finish
    Magnaflow 12256 (18" body). Performance wise I noticed a little better acceleration at higher RPM's but not a ton.

    I like the sound good enough but there is a little bit of drone around 2-2.5K RPM's. I might try a 12286 (24" body) but not sure.

    I've owned Flowmaster before and I definitely prefer the sound of MF. This is the 2nd vehicle I've had a MF on and will have a tough time switching to anything else.

    Your right its not my exhaust that makes my truck fast. It probably my supercharger. Only gets 311 hp but id say it does the job. I appericiate the support justinxc. I think some of these guys that spend all their time on the internet, have never had anything better than one of these foriegn things.

    How much time do yall spend fighting with people on here? lol. Also I would say they all sound pretty good but I think flowmasters sound the best at least on these trucks. I bet duals do sound pretty good but I dont know how I would route the pipe on the drivers side around the gas tank for the true duals. any ideas?
