Muffler sound is based off personal preference.

Each of the sites listed, SHOULD, have a sound clip of the sound.

I found when I started my research that Magnaflow doesn't have a sound clip of the 4.7...only the HEMI or the SRT-10. Your best bet is to get the exhaust mods done at a local shop...saves ya money over a whole kit thru Flowmaster/Magnaflow.

Get the JetChip thru www.summittracing.com.

WOW Thats alot of gas in those trucks but they sure look like fun. I was thinking that I am only going to change the muffler for now, we'll see. It won't be until the end of next year though since I have orders to go overseas this Dec.

Be safe when you go guy.
I will thank you.

Ok now I have more questions....My auto trans has 3 gears correct? or 4? Is the tow haul button a 4th gear or overdrive. Normal town driving should I drive in D (my colorado I would drive in 3)?

What is the best intake? Airraid, K&N Fipk 63 Series Air charger?

Drive it in D. When you're towing/hauling heavy loads, hit the tow/haul button; it will adjust the gearing to give you maximum power. The transmissions on these trucks are 5 speed autos.

I think, and don't quote me on this part, if you add the factory 6-disc, you'll be okay. If you add an aftermarket one, you might have some issues. I'm actually rather interested in that myself...somewhere down the road I might like to put in a whole new stereo, but I won't if it's going to screw up the bluetooth.

Now you've got me curious. I'm going to do some checking on that.
