What about a Spintech Sportsman? Those puppies sound WICKED.

Also you might try the Flowtech Terminator.

Flowmaster 40s or Super 40s, they sound really mean with LTs and no cats.

well I had 2 Flowmaster 40s on my truck and it honestly didn't sound bad... maybe not the best performance mufflers but I still consantly got compliments on the sound. But I've since moved up to 2 Spintech ProStreets... once I heard Spintechs I knew that would be my next exhaust swap choice. I sent silver-mod-o some sound clips and turned him on to them, and as you see he liked them as well

flowmasters are an awsome sounding muffler, i just read alot of flack on them about the performance side, i view flowmaster like this.....

growing up, flowmaster was a country mans muffler, a redeck love. BECAUSE, your average redneck country boy, doesnt give a rats *** about performance, he just likes a name and a sound, and flowmaster has a cool sticker for his window! lol,

so IMO opinion, flowmaster sounds great! but might not push those extra small numbers you want,

and if u want LOUD, its always going to be cutouts, or straight pipe.

flowmaster is still a good muffler for older motors. they seem to like a bit more backpressure. these new chevy motors dont need as much

Part of the problem are those 22-foot mufflers, man! Jeezus, they must stick out 10' from the back of the truck, huh? Sorry, couldn't resist!

Actually, the shorter Magnaflows will be louder than the 22" casing.

I agree with everything you said, except for there is something that fits this just a litte bit better than Flowmasters. Good ole' redneck 12" or 18" Glasspacks!
