Default V6 with a flowmaster?

I have v6 and my exhaust I have on right now has a crack in the muffler and needs replacing soon, I'm planning on going with the flowmaster super 44 series 1 in 2 out with either dumps to the rear axle or side exit, does anybody this with a v6 have this and would it sound good?

I have a 40 series and it's dumped before the axle! Sounds like a diesel in winter!! I thinks it's the best sounding v6 I've heard!!

The 40 series sounds pretty good on a V6. Im running a 40 series SIDO setup on my 4.0 V6 Ranger. Chambered mufflers really help take some of the high frequency sound out thats typical of V6 exhaust notes. High RPM's it will still sound like a V6, thats unavoidable but it will have a nice rumble in the lower RPM range.

It sounds good, in relation to many cars we have a big v6, 4.2,4.6....my car is 2.0, my friends charger is 2.7 and he had the nerve to put duals on it with 28" rims lol

I had a custom exhaust with a Flowmaster mufflers put on the old truck I drove, which was a 2001 V6 Sport Trac, and it sounded amazing. Actually, amazing is an understatement. The exhaust came out before the right rear wheel (true side exhaust). The sound is a mixture of muscle, and a deep "hum." In fact, no one can tell it's a V6 unless I mention it.

PS: The Sport Trac has a 4.0 V6, if I remember correctly.
