Default Solo performance makes me want a 5.0

Just listen to this glorious soundtrack! I underestimated SOLO, making an Eco exhaust is just impossible....but this is absolutely awesome! Loud but a deep note, not too raspy. Oh yeah!

Those sound great. I think the dual 3" is better than the single 4". Either way, sweet as it sounds I think all that noise would get old.

Kinda cool to see that a black plasti-dip Lariat Limited style grille doesn't look half bad. It looks better than I expected, the opposite is better though.

I'm resisting buying one now. I have to finish my theater otherwise the dual version would already be on my truck the inside cab sound clip sounds nice with very little to no drone.

Very nice looks on the dual catback, but, I like the single MFR400 system best because it's much cheaper, less weight, more stealthy looking, and it flows just as well as the duals if it's 3" tubing all the way.

Jeb, it's 3" back from the flange a little piece, then steps up to 4" for the rest. The j pipe is in the 3" section. Check their website. Lots of pics.

If you want the stock looking stealth look the mr400 single is perfect. I used to like dual exit behind the spare before the new ram came out, now I hate that look. I love the dual side exit as seen in that video. Looks awesome. Love the fact that music could drown out the drone but the minute you punch it it screams. This is why I love bolt on exhausts, if I stop liking it I could throw the stock one back on.

Funny how all the exhausts have different notes. The roush is a bit smoother sounding and the Magnaflow is a bit quieter but this is easily my favorite on the 5.0.

That sounds good? Really? To each his own I suppose. I certainly don't like it.

Yeah, but, I was disappointed their site only lists the catback's for the ecoboost. I guess the V8 version hasn't been posted on their website yet. I sure like it a lot.

I think you'll find that they are the same kit.

Careful there. Varying opinions are not tolerated here.
