Talking What exhaust do your prefer and why ?

I know everything is opinion based. But I want to hear those opinions; and what the differences are, and why you think one is better than the other.

The Question - Which exhuast system is better, Flow or Gibson ?

Thanks,

Matt

Yea but its scattered all over. I am glad you responded that way I can tell people in the forum what engine and model it is. I have a 2005 2WD HEMI 1500. And I need to be informed as of current what the best headers for the money are. Some of the information on the other thread is dated.

If you want brand specific flow rates, look at this thread that Hammer put together.

Magnaflow should definitely be on your list. The reasons are: Affordable, stainless steel, lifetime warranty on the muffler, and awesome sound and performance.

Well something that I have come to find out that if I use rear flip kit on the McGaughys model #44003 it could possibly affect where the rear pipes go because of the change of position of the leaf springs. Any thoughts ?. I am looking at the flow master model #817397, but instead of using the super 50 muffler with it, changin it out to the cherry bomb extreme muffler model #7427

Is it possible to buy a flowmaster exhaust (I like there dual split side exit) and instead of using the HD 50 series that comes with the kit, use a cherry bomb muffler ?

Wink Exhaust modifications.

I have asked this question in one of my other threads. But I am pretty decided about going with a flowmaster exhaust american thunder series stainless steel. I know people like magna flow, dynomax, gibson etc... But this isnt abotu which one is better because most the other brands dont make the design I want which is dual side exits behind the rear wheels. My question is if I buy the cat back kit can I sub a cherry bomb muffler rather than using what comes with the kit ?? Have any of you tried anything like that.

Chery bomb is a smaller muffler that the flowmaster so you'll have to add piping to get it to work right. And you'll need to.make sure the two pipe inlets on both mufflers are the same. Other than that it "should" work
