Well, I did the research, a LOT of it, on the internet 2 years ago, before buying a Gibson single pipe sweptside. All the popular brands have a high flow rate. As a matter of fact, Gibson is generally thought to be one of the best for adding hp, tho on the Ranger 3.0 liter it only adds an hp or two. I've had my aluminized steel Gibson for almost 2 years. Its one of the least noisy brands, which is one reason why I got it, but has a nice, fairly low, sound. Gets louder the more you get on the gas pedal, especially at and above 3,000 rpm. The steel is real thick -- this is a rugged system. I'm real pleased with mine.

I have a Gibson stainless steel sweptside and I love it. As everybody else says, its not as loud as a flowmaster, but there's definitely a nicer growl over stock. When I had it next to Joe's same exhaust, only carbon steel, there was definitely a deeper sound in mine. So I'd say spend the extra bucks and go for stainless, its worth it.

Flow rate is not the only thing that is important in an exhaust system especially in street engines. As was mentioned earlier, no exhaust system is going to gain much power for you over the stock exhaust system. My advice is look for a system that gives you the sound you like and don't expect a big change in power or gas mileage.

The 3.0l will only gain 1 or 2 horsepower, no matter what exhaust you put on it. Maybe 3 or 4 tops. You'll only get more than that if you're heavily modded elsewhere.
I've heard many claims that Gibson doesn't flow the best, but the 3.0l isn't exactly needing wide open exhaust. Some backpressure is needed for low end torque. Not enough and you may gain high RPM Horsepower, but you'll have a weaker bottem end. Again, see my first paragraph, were still talking small single digits in gains.
