Question 2012 5.0 exhaust

I just picked up my new 2012 5.0L ext. cab 6.5' box and she is a beauty. I want to add a bit more grrr though and i was wondering what your guys thoughts/experiences were for good sounding exhaust on the 5.0?

I installed the 3" single side out Magnaflow on my SCAB 5.0. I like it.

I recently installed a Solo Performance Mach X Dual cat-back system, and am thrilled to pieces with it. Starting her up makes me smile every time. When idling or cruising, you know it's there, but it's nothing intolerable. No drone to speak of, when cruising down the freeway. When I stab it, which is often, it comes to life with one of the most perfect exhaust notes I've had the pleasure of hearing.

I have really enjoyed the Magnflow systems; currently using the dual-exit setup. Has a really nice powerful growl to it under acceleration that is more substantial than the Gibson systems but none of the intrusive drone that you can get with some of the Flowmaster systems.

+1 for the Solo Performance Mach X Dual system.

That's my ride in the video; both systems are superb, but I settled on the Mach X dual system. The single 4" straight pipe was a little loud for me; sounds like an absolute beast but I do LOTS of long hours commuting so I went with the tamer sounding dual system. I've got 40,000kms and 8 months on my system now and I think it sounds even better now.
