Does anyone have a Thrush muffler or exhaust system? If so, do you like it? And what muffler/system do you have?

You should make sure you add it's for a V-6. Our motor has a tendency to sound ricey. I have a Flowmaster 50 series deltaflow.

Not at all! Just do a lot of research. Try to find some guys with v6's hopefully the 3.7 Club I started will pick up soon this is exactly why I made it. Spread the word. Might wanna try the Dakota, Jeep, and Durango sections too, probably a lot of v6's over there. Use the search function. Like I said I like mine, I know quite a few 6ers here are running the Flowmaster 40 series too. Good luck.

I had a Thrush two-chamber first. After about a year it started sounding bad. It kind of made a hissing sound when I got on it. Of course, it was only $32. I now have a Magnaflow 3" SI/SO and love it.

Thrush mufflers of today ain't what they were back in the 70s. They are made to make a price point. Very thin materials and poor welds from this foreign made muffler. Got a buddy who put one on his Jeep Wrangler when he was out of work and couldn't afford to spend much on a muffler, so he got a Thrush for all of about $20 at his local parts store. Was rusted to sh*t in about 9 months, and we are talking down south here - NO salt on these roads...
