ORIGINAL: Ram fourpoint7

I'm having a local muffler shop install a cat back with a flowmaster 50 and a nice stainless rolled edge tip for $200. Seems like a good price especially when comparing to some of the Borla, Magnaflow and Gibson systems. The tip will be welded on instead of bolt-on which IMO will look mnore finished.
When you went to the muffler shop what did you tell them you wanted......just a custom cat back exhaust? I am planning on putting a new exhaust on mine with a flowmaster 40 and have it exit infront of both rear tires, but I don't want to spend a bunch of money on a name brand.....

it will save you more time, money and energy if you just go to local muffler shop and get a 3in dual exhuast put into your truck. it shouldnt run you more than $300. plus if you go with a small pipe you might encounter some problems in the long run. just do it right the first time and save in the long run...

loiler, keep in mind that you are going from 3in pipe to dual 2.5 pipes, so you aren't really losing flow through the exhaust. I have the flowmaster catback system with the 50HD muffler and I have no complaints at all.

I think the 50hd is perfect for what I was looking for. It sounds nice when accelerating from a stop and cruising around town. It's pretty quiet when I ease off the gas through my neighborhood while I'm going home at 11 at night. But you stomp on it and it barks pretty good, not enough to annoy everyone for 5 miles around like the 40 series or glasspacks might. A good muffler for all around driving.
