That muffler sounds veddy nice on the 4.7, I'm going to have to consider this one. It sounds better in person I bet, videos just don't do justice..

I have an XR-1 on mine, and it sounds orgasmic. Trust me, you won't be disappointed. And no, videos do not do them any justice at all. In person, they sound amazing.

Thanks for the input, I appreciate it. I'm going to look them up a bit and find a price range, I've been looking for a new sound..

You guys think there will be a difference in tone if I go with either a round or an oval shaped muffler? lol..

Round would be louder, less resonance waves bouncing off of each other canceling out. Oval would be a little quieter...

Round it is . Also, i'm going to get the 2.5" in/out so since the piping is the same comparitively to my piping, will I still be able to clamp this muffler on? Since the piping on the muffler won't overlap my piping?

Wow, nevermind, they don't have round sizes in 2.5" lol

You can sleeve it if you want to clamp it. Any auto parts store will have them...

I think I'll have to go with part # 40085..3" in/out..I can just clamp it..it's 15" in length but its cheaper than the other round sizes they have, especially the first one...
