lets talk mufflers..
got 3 mufflers I'm looking into
1) borla XR-1 oval 3" in/out 12" case length
2) borla XR-1 round 3" in/out 15" case length
3) flowmaster super 10 3" in/out 6" case length
few questions.. how does a single chamber muffler stack up against a straight through design? since the shorter the case means louder wouldn't that mean the super 10 would be loudest? what about the difference between a 12" oval muffler vs 15" round?
I'm going after a DEEP/LOUD rumble at idle and while driving, idc about drone. also, which one would preform better? and I'm not messing with cats

If you want loud straight pipe it or get a blow through muffler like a magnapack. I'm running my 4.6 straight piped and i have no drone i love it, when i have the money im going to 45 it out before the tire

Im wantimg mainly sound. But i dont want to hurt performance, but im not looking to really gain either. Im just wondering how the sound would be for a 6" single chamber muffler vs a 12 or 15" straight thru muffler..

I can't honestly believe anyone would be debating between Borla and Flowmaster. Borla is a very nice expensive good sounding long lasting quality piece. Flowmasters are cheap, obnoxiously loud without flowing any better, and rust out within a few years. If you really are debating between those 2 brands, and you can afford the Borla, then absolutely get it. If you want something in between, Magnaflow makes a good quality straight-through muffler for substantially less than Borla. If it was my truck, I would get an 18" Magnaflow straight-through muffler in the same diameter as the stock pipe, weld it in, and call it a day.

I threw a super 44 on mine a while ago but its not cuttin it. I was expecting alot louder, however i do like the sound, i just want it amplified basically. And the main reason im debating is because price, 70 compared to 150. But i have no problem buying the xr1 if it will end up being louder than the 44 or 10

Dont get flowmasters. As already stated above they are cheap, obnoxious, mufflers that WILL rust out in a couple years.
Borla, Magnaflow, Dynomax are all straight through mufflers made from stainless steel, I would be looking at those.
Im running a Dynomax Ultraflo SS muffler on my truck, has a nice deep throaty sound and its not overly loud.
