    Looks like gibson is the least popular, for whatever reason, but I really like the gibson cat back. Easy bolt on install. No obnoxious sound. Just a nice rumble (IMO since sound is a personal preference). Better price tag too! :thumbsup:

    Same as others, mine sits in my garage (in the way) and possibly the rest will be there aswell as i want to but Doug Thorley headers and "Y" pipe on my truck to go with the MBRP cat back

    Just installed a flowmaster 40 series in place of the stock exhaust. Not a fan of it at all really, sounds to "Tin Canny" for my liking. Need something with a deeper rumble rather than a hollow sound. Going to keep it on until I replace it, more than likely with a MBRP or TRD.

    I like my MBRP it is not over loud but i think headers and "Y" pipe will give it a bit better rumble

    Cut off the tailpipes and put turndown(s) on the 40'series. I have had trd, 40, and 50. 40+turndowns=win.

    Gonna have to look into this because I put a tip on, but it's still not to my liking.

    If you want the look of the tip, the fact that exhaust is routed stock-like, and bolt on stuff, then you need something else.

    BUT, if you want a deep ass rumble "grrrrgggggggg" without the 'pop-pop-pop' cut ff the pipes and put on turndowns.
