our muffler is in the rear, most aftermarket systems move the muffler up in the middle of the truck.. i dont think there would be that much added in cabin noise with the magnaflow, the flowmaster yea..lol its loud... i think you would be fine with the magnaflow.. your not gonna get and agressive sound without hearing it alittle inside at some point.. and when i say hearing it i dont mean being loud or rattling things inside the cabin.. i did alot of research on this as well.. and in general the magnaflow was said to not drone hardly at all and be pretty much everything you described.. id say go for it and see how it sounds.. its going to be noticable at first no matter howor quiet it is being more agressive than stock.. after a week or 2 she prob wouldnt notice anymore
IDK really....this is really all different to everyones ear and personal preference for whats tolerable. Problem here is the investment too. Its over $500 for the exhaust plus figure $150 for install. Odds are the oem exhaust would be scrap once taken off so if this didnt workout we would be out good amount of money plus all the headaches.
Its a tough call. I know if I had to do it all over again I wouldnt have put the Magnaflow system in my 3.7L Cherokee. Thats only a measley 6 cyl too. This is a more agressive hemi.
The muffler is in fact right under the rear passenger side seat so to me thats more the center of the truck.
Mike oferred me to take a listen to his if and when I get up his way. I think I cant take this plunge until I hear it with my own ears inside and out of the vehicle.

no i dont have the magnaflow but have use them on other vehicals.. i actually plan on getting the stainless version of the Flowmaster.. it a decent bit louder than the magnaflow but i dont mine it.. i grew up with muscle cars and love a nice throaty v8 rumble.. as long as its not ridiculous lol
Id suggest you go listen to it on someone elses and maybe have you wife go for a ride in it to see what she thinks..
