Get a tuner, not a "performance chip". A flowmaster really isnt going to be noticeable in performance loss. Switching a muffler out isnt going to give you a wow factor or a noticeable seat of the pants gain.

Electronic cutout for the exhaust system. will allow with a touch a button to go from a stock exhaust which is quiet to a straight dump wich is very loud.

If you wanted a whole new exhaust system you could get you truck straight piped. Its loud and cheap! Shops around here do it for $150. Straight pipe is when you have no mufflers, just the cats. An E cutout is the same thing except you can turn it off if its too loud sometimes. The cutout goes before your muffler so when its open the exhaust comes out before the muffler, same exact concept as straight pipes.
