    I bought the flowmaster duals from autoanything.com. Fairly simple to install with basic tools.

    Haha I was thinking the same thing.
    I went with the single in dual out flowmaster original 40 with turn downs dumped before the axle and I love it!

    I got the mbrp pro series dual exhaust. It sounds and looks really good. But it was expensive! like around $600! :eek:
    Best bang for the buck would be to buy a muffler like magnaflow and a nice polished tip and have an exhaust shop weld them onto your stock piping. Thats the way i would go if i had it to do over again.

    hey all, sorry bout the late replies. I had an 02 with a magnaflow, but it was a 4 banger. would the V6 sound better with the magnaflow? and I am tinkering with putting on a set of thorley headers also :D I just want good sound, and not any of that droaning sound either!

    well today I had them take the stock off, and replace w/ a magnaflow w/ turndown. it sounds good so far, but probably gonna upgrade to a catback on about 6 months or less.
