i've got an 07 4.7 "big horn" and although the stock exhaust isn't too bad, i'm looking for something a touch more throaty. i was just going to take the muffler off, and replace it with a pipe, but it's a 3" pipe and for me to bend that, would be a bugger. any aftermarket replacement kits out there? or what is everyone using? normally i'm not on a budget, but this truck, i promised the wife, would remain stock. as my 97 s10 is bagged and body dropped, she made me promise if i got another truck, i wouldn't touch it, lol....anyone have any opinions? (on the exhaust situation, not the wife)

 

oh come on, nobody wants to give a reply?

 

I had a FLowmaster 50 series SUV muffler put on mine. Sounds good and it isn't too loud. I kept the resonator and had a stainless tip added so it looks and sounds much better for about $200.

 

i put on a Aero Turbine 3030 on mine and dumped it cost me total about 200 bucks to do i used some of my stock exhaust pipe to make it custom but its loud as hell

 

I had a catback dual exhaust installed by Master Muffler (they do madrel bends) using the Dynoflow muffler and 3" stainless steel tips. Cost about $400. It's is pretty loud and has a resonance tone around town, but on the highway it's OK. May go to a quieter one though. Get's a little anoying around town, which is mostly the type of driving I do.

 

24" glasspacked muffler from the muffler shop. Incredible sound for $60 total install.

 

I have no muffler.. just pipe!!! sounds ****in wicked, LOUD so if your not wanting loud!! don't do it!

 

I'm going to have an electric cutout installed right after the cat on my stock exhaust, so it can be super quiet or super loud.

 

I had a Flowmaster 40 Series installed and had custom dual pipes bent around the spare tire area. The total cost was about $350, but that includes $120 for stainless Magnaflow tips. $230 for the muffler and the custom job done at the garage I took it to. It sounds bad-***. It's not too bad at an idle, but when you get on it you can really notice. I get tons of compliments everywhere I go. You'll love it!

 

Magnaflow single exhaust here, not to loud but sounds sweet
