Sound depends on what you like. If you like loudness, get a glasspack. I had flowmaster 44 dual outlet, and switched to summit glasspack and it was MUCH louder. And as much for performance, i heard magnaflow is pretty good. Forget flowmaster. Flowmasters mufflers are really constricting. My glasspack was 20bucks and got as good, if not better, than my flowmaster

Magnaflow. Nice tone, not too loud and flows almost twice as much as a 40 series Flowmaster. Magnaflow id also stainless and wont rust in 5 years like a Flowmaster aluminized will.

The gibson super truck is really crackly and bubbly on the decel from what I have heard. Not a smooth sound at all.
I have magnaflow dual side exit and really like it. It's not too loud and has an aggressive tone. Both young and old like the tone. The only quirk I has, for the money that it cost for such a simple exhaust, they could have supported bigger exhaust tips. 3.5" is kinda small. I have them on My mustang. I wish they gave 4" as they appear noticeably larger! Other than that, My main concern was Stainlesss material so it won't look like crap and rust out in no time. Aluminized steel like the dronemasters use is mild steel and will rust out. Summit uses mild steel. Gibson I believe is Mild steel.
