Need help with muffler choice. No clue

[bagged00]

i Don't have a clue how to go about picking a muffler but just want something to make the truck sound better. Looking to spend about 100$. Help me out please. Stock 06 4.8. Going to turn down right before axle

How loud do you want it? Stock manifolds? Plan to stay stock manifolds?

Maybe long tubes eventually but probably no time soon. From what I hear Ill probably like the sound of magmaflow but I have not idea with casing length etc. I don't know how that plays a part

The shorter the case, the louder it is. Being dumped, an 18" or 22" magnaflow would sound good or similar sound for less money would be a dynomax bullet. With stock cats/manifolds neither would be ridiculous loud.

I might just go for the cheaper because.....I'm cheap lol. I've been seeing about that dynamax just wasn't sure. Seems like 12" is popular size dynamax? 3" id correct?

I had a dynomax bullet. 3" in/out and it was like 14ish long. When I got headers I switched it out and put in a oval 5x8x18 magnaflow and like that set up better. It's not nearly as loud at idle and cruising, but over 2k rpm it has a similar sound. The bullet is almost like being straight piped with most of the rasp gone. It's not bad but for only about $60 more you can get a magnaflow.

How was the dynomax with stock exhaust manifold? If I do long tubes it'll be down the road I'm sure.

Yea, dynomax was stock manifolds, cats, and y pipe. Then 3" pipe in and out of the bullet.

Dynomax with stock manifolds isn't bad at all....Remind me in the morning and I will find the YouTube video of my old truck.

Also the dynatech split flow race muffler is Amazing...Sounds very much like Corsa Sport.

I do like your sound Brian but doesn't the big ass tip play a part in that? I'm obviously not running that big of tip on dropped truck
