Planing on doing the exhaust.
-X pipe where the Y pipe is.
-2.5" stainless dull all the way.
- 2.5" or 3" American off-road muffler.
-4" dull tips exiting from stock location.
I don't want loud what do all think.

from the sound of the setup your lookin at it's gonna be a deeper tone at low rpms but probably loud at anything over 2k rpm.

Any other mods? And which muffler are you lookin into?

2.5" or 3" American off road as pear the shop. I think it is Flow master. I was thinking 2.5 all the Way muffler's too would be quiet.
It will be 2 mufflers. what I want is true dull all the Way.

If you don't want it to be real loud, I would suggest a Magnaflow. The Flowmasters are a lot louder (at least all that I have heard) and the Magnaflow has a much deeper tone that isn't too loud unless you really get on it.

I have used flowmaster on a few other vehicles (jeep, silverado, magnum) they all have a really good sound to them.
If you stick with 2.5 in/out you should be fine. A good note without being to loud. But with dual exhaust it's gonna be louder.

Personally I'd go with the 2.5 in - 3 out. Still a good note without being to loud at idle but gives you a good deep sound at higher rpm

Borla and Magnaflow sound very similar, Borla typically being more expensive. I like Flowmaster, but they just sound kind of tinny and loud on our trucks IMO.

If you can get Borla look at the XR-1 or XS models for a good tone and not crazy loud.
