Default Exhaust Queston?

Today I was on my way home from work and suddenly I herd a loud noise, pulled over thinking it was a blown tire but turned out my exhaust had rusted out behind the muffler, so with that being said time for a new exhaust, I have longtube headers and ory with 3in collectors btw, My question is should I go true duals from header back with dual magnaflows with a 2.5 or 3in pipe.. or just a single in dual out magna flow with 2.5 or 3in pipe??? Which would be better??

well it's going to sound like true duals if you prefer that sound. will probably cackle at decel and makes a distinct sound at part throttle.


single exhaust will be just a constant roar


mine is dumped behind the axle, I prefer no exhaust tip/ pipe showing

mine actually crackels rn with a single round glass pack looking muffler that came on the truck when I got it but I want a deeper sound so maybe a single one would be better??

The sound is bad azz. If u do an xpipe it will balance out the sound. If not you will get a poping cackling sound that u probably wont like. But ya I love the way my set up sound. My exhaust friend said it sounds like a good vet with a high dollar exhaust system.
