Very expensive.
Magnaflow is the best bang for the buck. All stainless and well built.
www.planetmagnaflow.com for best pricing. Make tham an offer. I got a great deal on my Mustang cat-back.

im running dual magnaflow preformance series exhausts and i couldent be anymore happier, they have a nice deep sound all threw the rpm range, although it could be annoying for some people cuz they are quite loud.

any exhaust you buy wont show much increase as expected until you get a cai. You may be pushing more air out but doesnt matter unless your bringing more air in. For sound i say FM super 44 dumped, drove through my first parking garage today... got out four times to make sure i was clear on the roof lol... but i set off about 6 alarms. I got it installed and everything for 110. I dont have a hemi but people ask me if i do just cause it sounds better than most trucks out there. You want performance/mileage increase you have to aid the air flow i.e. cai, headers, high flow exhaust but just one wont show THAT much increase.

Disturbed has it correct, you will not see much of any gain. And for sound it is hard to beat a FM. However, of the minimal gains FM is probably one of the worst.

I just bought a Thrush muffler from jegs for about $40 shipped - cost $50 to install. Sounds freakin' great.......

Like the Thrush box says, today's power and vintage sound.

It does sound nice and beefy. I have the 4.7 as well and it sounds mean!

Magnaflow is prolly one of the best but the system is over $500.
