Thanks! I've been watching their clips on YouTube. They also have some good install videos.

FYI - autoanything.com has 20% off on their MBRP systems right now. Enter in AA20 in the cart. And they regularly have 10 and 15% codes.

Sample: The MBRP XP Series dual rear exit is normally $604.99. With the code it is $483.99.

I went with the Gibson single side swept catback. The sound is great with a nice performance bump. Quiet at cruise with a slight performance sound that's barely above stock. Everyone that heard my truck before and now love it! I installed it on my 07 too which was stolen. Guess they liked it more than me? The Gibson makes power where you use it, 2k-3k, which is another reason I chose it. Check there website. I'm totally pleased with the results!

Solo Performance MR400 w/ a Mach 46 muffler to keep the sound down.

In my opinion, it is the best sounding exhaust on the 5.0 that I've heard yet.

Here is a clip of it idling in the driveway:


And here it is on a quick drive:


Oh...and no spare tire removal for install. I actually installed it in my driveway without lifting the truck and without any special tools.

Removal of the spare tire is both asinine and completely unnecessary. I wonder why some of them require that.

I'd take the MBRP over any Fartmaster system. FMs drone a LOT.

I noticed that. The 20% off sale is still advertised on the site. Last night it would give me 20% off flowmaster or MBRP, today it won't. Says the discount doesn't apply. I've had the same thing happen with items on their site multiple times. Discount works and low and behold I come back 12hrs later to purchase and it won't accept the code anymore. It's probably cost them a couple thousand dollars worth of my money in the last year or so.

Let me know what they say when you call.

I talked to Brian B on their live chat and he said the best they could do was 16% so he set me up with a link to the checkout. i didnt get any kind of discount code so it sounds like you'll have to call or do the live chat on their website.

i just need the pipe and muffler so im looking at the Performance Series and it came out to like $250. cant beat that for a catback and if it drones too much, i'll have my stock resonator welded back in.

he said the only difference between the Performance Series and the Installer Series is that the resonator only comes with the Installer Series for 100 dollars more. can anyone verify that...it doesnt show any of that on their website??
