you cant really tell from the video but it has a very unique tone to it expecially while downshifting it sounds really nice

Thanks. Sounds good. I've heard them on chargers and mustangs but that is the first I've heard on a 4.7.

Did you do the entire exhaust at once or in steps? Notice much of an exhuast tone change with those headers?

Magnaflow does make a 14 inch muffler, I have them on my wifes Acadia in place of the resonators that are one the dual tips, and a flowmaster 50 in place of the muffler. The borla I have is a 12 inch muffler, and I guess you could compare the design to a Magnaflow (straight through). The Borla is comparable in sound to my flowmaster 40 series I had on it, but with less drone. My wife says she likes the borla better because she can actually talk to her friends when she's sitting in the back.

i like the drone for some reason. doesnt bother me or my girl at all and we can still talk just fine. peopel that have never been in the truck on the highway are thrown off by the drone but f it. its MY truck no theirs haha. the best part is pissing people off that drive while talking on the phone. i love to sit right next to them and keep it high in thr rpms so its drones them off their phone......

I did the cat back at first then when i ordered my cams and tune i installed the headers and it actually made it quieter and less raspy. Im happy with the way it sounds now i was going for a loud exhaust and i finally figured out the right combination without straightpiping it lol
