Alright ill check those out, im not to worried about drone ive got some nasty subs and its just my town truck but if avoidable ill try to avoid it. Ive been looking on amazon for these mufflers, they run 30-$90 depending on which one. Anyone know where to get them cheaper?

EBay is close but a lot of knock offs. Otherwise summit. I go with amazon due to free 2 day shipping with prime.

Also, make sure you actually port your exhaust out the side of your truck. Or out the back. Don't just stop it at your red line. It's not really good to have all that warm humid air being shot at your rear end components, plus your spare tire might melt / crack / breakdown on the side facing the exhaust and will be unusable when you actually need it.

Don't listen to tackle man. He's as anti straight pipes as it gets. Cut it off before the muffler and put a pipe in its place. With the four cats our trucks have the truck has plenty of back pressure And isnt as loud and cracky as the normal "straight pipe sound. I had a magna flow and cut it off and put a pipe in its place. Both were single exit out the back with a 4 inch tip. The magna flow wasnt real loud but so so clean. With a pipe in its place the truck is only moderately louder and still fairly clean sounding

I think the point of the OPs question was how to make the exhaust have a nice tone and not break the bank. But if that's not the case then go all out 2.25 inch dual with long tubes,high flow cats, x pipe, your choice of mufflers, whatever exit you like, then some nice tips. But that's no where near inexpensive or an easy garage job.

Sounds Ok. I like one with a muffler better. Sounds like the driver has class.
