Muffler Preference?!?!
Figured I'd ask this as well.. I already have a magnaflow stock exist exhaust on my truck.. it sounds good.. but still not as noticible as i'd want it to be.. anyone got any input on a good muffler to buy?? i just want somethin that'll sound throaty and strong.. thanks!
Most do custom installs, all 3 of mine have been custom.. lol

Keep in mind that with the serial high-flow cats on our trucks, sound gets damped a LOT before it ever hits the muffler. Some folks have reported that NO muffler gets as loud as they like it to be and even without a muffler it sounds "quiet" to them.
I wanted quiet and cheap so I just have a Dynomax -- but it wouldn't meet your sound spec's because it's way quiet. It does flow well though.

I have a single in/dual out 40 series Flowmaster run strait out the back with 3.5" Magnaflow stainless steel tips and it gets pretty dang loud. The big tips make a difference in volume....go with big tips if you want big noise.
i dont like FMs for performance, the baffeling kills the flow. for sound they are ok but everyone has one now it seems. did u try ditching ur stock cats for some high flow ones? also i agree, the tips make a difference. also the muffler size has a lot to do with it. my bud had a long magnaflow on his f-150 and it was quiet as hell but he went with the smallest one and it made a notable difference...
do u have a sound clip of ur magnaflow set up?

Just an idea, but here is my Bassani cat back. It was a little pricey, but is all stainless steel and sounds awesome. It is pretty much a direct bolt on, the kit comes with every thing you need all cut and bent.

also, u have to put them on the pass. side because the gas tank is in the way for the drivers side exit... get a shop to make a custom one... it will be a lot cheaper and probably better too
Ill take a pic of mine too... ill post it on in a few
