A buddy recommended the guy to me, had to drive about 40 minutes from my town, out to a little town in BFE. The guy that owned the place was nice and seemed to know what he was talking about. He did the entire setup with my watching over and kept telling me if I had a question or concern to just let him know. After he welded the tips on I expressed a little concern about the driver's side one not quite like the passenger side, I told him it didn't matter, it was only a hair off, but he cut it off, got another tip and made it right. Heck of a guy and he's probably got me as a life customer just from that job...

The funny thing was when he quoted a price to me, it seemed like he was scared to tell me, like he worried it was too high... lol, it was the 3rd place I had been to, and he beat the other two by almost 200

...Edit: oh yeah, total cost for muffler, pipes, tips, labor, $245 out the door.
That is CHEAP!

I paid $450 for Mine, I got all Stainless (Except for the Flowmaster muffler).

i say neither of those mufflers get an aero turbine 3030.. there is much more than magna flow and flowmasters out there
I just pulled up one of their ads online. " A resonated muffler designed to give significant performance benefits while maintaining stock or below stock sound levels"

Sounds like the perfect muffler........for my mom's mini van

I went with aMagnaflow cat back. Stainless, lifetime warranty, 1 in 1 out behind the rear wheel. I contemplated 2 out behind rear wheels, but some systemsconflicted with the spare tire and I didn't want it out therear I pull a trailer and didn't want the exhaust blowing in my face when loading it up. Fairly quite at cruising speeds, ROARS like a Hemi and turns heads when you get on it, bolted right on with NO problems.

Now, I really dont have a full say considering my ram 1500 is only a v6...However, I slapped on a Flowmaster Super 40 series muffler Single-in dual out. I noticed a pretty good increase in both hp and overall sound. I thought the quality was a bit better than the magnaflow catback I had on it before...but thats just me. I dumped the pipes out the rear tires cuz i got rear ended when I had the catbacked all the way out....I love the new flowmaster but like everyone is saying, it all comes down to personal preference
