I say give the Aero a shot, the trucks I've heard with Aero Turbines on them sounded killer.

The Borla 400286 (dual 2.5") 196.99
The Borla 3" single is 169.99 and I would need two of them.

Keep in mind those are nothing like the aero turbine mufflers. That is really no different than any other packed straight through muffler made by magnaflow, borla, dynomax, ect.

Mine made made 4 Virginia winters but couldn't survive a single Nebraska winter, lol.

I don't hate, I reasearch test and post up the best results I have. There are 1000s of threads in the G3 Ram section on Flowmasters being restrictive.
