Default 5.0 with 14" magnaflow and stock resonator

Sound like a good set up as far as keeping drone out but getting most rumble out of exhaust ? Would do single in dual out muffler

It will sound more aggressive that stock but won't be a whole lot louder. Keeping the stock resonator will definitely help with the drone. For fun you should just unbolt the muffler and run just the resonator. If the sound is really close to what you want to just run that with a Y to run dual out.

I have the 14 inch magnaflow with stock resonator and does have very aggresive sound but is a bit loud on moderate acceleration, for me anyway.

Another thing I'm thinking is if I were to exit the exhaust in front of rear tire vs behind rear tire with same muffler/resonator set up could in front of tire make more drone ?

I have a 14 inch magnaflow dumped after muffler and no resonator! I love it! I tried first with resonator but it was way too quiet, almost sounded stock
