I am looking to do an exhaust on my truck soon. I am worried about the drone issues that seem to be commented on. I sure hope mine sounds good and doesn't make me wanna jump outta my cab from the noise

I had a flowmaster super 40 on my truck for 3 years b4 cutting it off, it sounded like crap and was not that loud. had a bad drown at highway speed. i know this is goin to hurt alot of the flowmaster lovers feelings but its true. Borla and magnaflow have a way better quality sound but werent loud or mean enough for me. i went with the slp because its the loudest muffler i could find. i had my truck straight piped b4 and the slp is just as loud. The cherrybomb extream is also a great muffle. im a welder and i have done dozens of exhausts on race cars trucks and cars so dont think im just pulling this outa my but. this is my OPINION bassed on things i have done.

Loud does not equal power. Usually just slower and a lot of pissed off neighbors!!!

I have a Borla ProXS( SI/DO - exit under bumper )on my 08 and the sound is great. Mellow under normal operation but it roars under WOT. The best part is no drone.

Had a Magnaflow on my 04 which was the same basic truck as my 08( just no MDS )and I HATED it. Within 15 minutes the drone had me sick to my stomach and wiith a headache. Same approx sound outside as the Borla just a ton of drone inside that killed it. I like Magnaflow and think they make quality stuff. Just not something I would put on a HEMI.

Forget Flowmaster. IMO they are junk and they sound horrendous( obnoxious )plus they drone like a mother in any HEMI I have been in.

Here are some sound clips of my truck from inside the cab( something happened on PB that messed up the credits vs when the sound starts??? )...






Please explain DRONE and WOT. And which has given you the best performance as well? I am really doing my home work before dropping a couple hundred on something I really want!

I don't have a Ram niether the 5.7 Hemi but i have the Borla muffler SI/SO on my 4.7 Dak and sounds awesome. Nice rumble at idle and big growl at open throttle..

Here is a vid on my drive way. I still need to make another one driving by and at highway speeds...
