Question Need a deep sounding exhaust

I just bought a 98 dakota sport with the 5.2 V8, and want the exhaust to sound better. i am in highschool, so loud isnt what im looking for, im looking for a deep throaty sound. My dad has a flowmaster 30 on his 04 dakota, but it just doesnt seem like its got much rumble, Is there any mufflers i can get that have a bit more?

I love my Aero Turbine, it's pretty deep, I replaced my 40 series with it and couldn't be happier.

Search the forum, its something that has been covered a lot so some research will def help.

Your 5.2 will rumble a little more so than your fathers truck assuming his is a 4.7. But if you are looking for a good deep tone that is also smooth, Magnaflow is a great option. Very smooth and deep. I think the flowmasters are a little more raspy than the Magnafow.

Cherry Bomb? Of course this is the 4.7...



I really should get some sound clips inside the cab... under a load

A glasspack is not what you're looking for if you want the tone and nothing obnoxious. But lightningbolts, cherry bomb muffler actually sounds pretty nice, and it is not a glasspack.

Is that just a SI/SO bolt?
