Default Looking for a new exhaust

Hey guys, I was looking around for a new exhaust kit for my '99 Dakota with a 5.9L magnum in it, and I was wonder what in your guys opinion is the loudest setup I can get? I heard Flowmasters were good, but I couldn't find soundclips for 'em, and also I've had a few people tell me the Bassani exhausts are loud as hell but same problem with the soundclips. Do you guys have any soundclips or feedback that you could share? For a reference, if it helps, I'm looking for the kinda volume my friend gets with a SLP Loudmouth 2's on his Mustang if possible.

If you want it loud, cut out your muffler and cats and just go straight pipes. If you want to keep it legal, flowmaster 40 will make it growl real mean, and sound awesome. If its still not loud enough, you can cut off your cats.

I have Flowmaster 40s on my truck and it is a nice rumble to her. I talked to my local muffler shop and they told me that having two mufflers won't make it sound louder but quiter. Unless you have true dual exhaust get one muffler witha one pipe inlet and one pipe outlet. My truck exhaust is cut off after the rear axle, pointing at the ground. Keeps the noise under the truck for more rumble inside.
