Thanks for all the info...including the argument. I just want a basic set-up...I was thinking just a single maybe out the side. Looking at cherry bomb or magnaflow.

 

I guess that part all depends on the sound you are looking for. There are fans of both exhausts, and different models of each.

I am one that supports Cherry Bomb now, used to be a magnaflow fan. If youd like Ill post some pics of it and a short clip.

 

If you want badass super annoying loud

 

So...cherry bomb vortex vs pro. I've heard the pro clip...anyone have a clip of the vortex?

 

A lot of people bash Flowmaster but imo it is the best sounding muffler out there. I had a flow 50 suv and wanted a little more sound so after looking at many choices, I had a delta 40 put on. I wanted to at least try a 2 chambered Flowmaster. Sounds awesome, nice deep low rumble at idle, nice growl on acceleration. Not raspy at all like some say. Can hear it inside but not to the point of being annoying at all. I'm sure the headers affect the tone too but I love the sound. I think straight through have more of a tuned sound but also a higher tone. Guess it's all in what you prefer. Sorry, no way to get a sound clip.

 

i have the flowmaster 40 series and hate it. it does sound raspy. depending on your truck design and were the rear tire and trailer hitch are (if any) you may need to go single. tried duals on mine and could not get it to work. went with a single 3 inch cat back with a larger y-pipe kept the factory manifolds on. they flow just as good. 250.00 out the door. paid in cash so no sales tax

 

Crappy quality vid (took it yesterday with my cellphone real quick to give you an idea, was pretty windy too) but here's mine at idle. Cherry Bomb Vortex single in single out going to a dual tip. It actually sounds deeper than that but my cellphone mic sucks, I'll have to borrow someone's video camera sometime.

I'm sort of liking the Vortex. Thanks Altair for the clip. Is it a 3in/3in out? Have you seen any mpg/hp gains?

Thanks to all of you for your help. This site is uber useful for a moron like me. But if you ever have any question about road race motorcycles, I'm your man.

 

I have the Flowmaster 40 on my truck now, and I think it sounds great. I suppose it depends on what everyone's exact definition of "raspy" is, because I suppose my exhaust could sound that way at some RPM levels when the truck is being revved.
But overall it growls like some mean pissed off beast most of the time, as it should.

When I first got my Flowmaster I bought it with the intention of changing it eventually to something else, kind of a trial basis. It's cheap enough to do so provided it's done by the local muffler shop with regular piping.

Next up I'll probably go with a Mangaflow or maybe even the cherry bomb, whenever that might be....
