Default cat back exhaust on VHO/SS?

What are you all running, how do you like it, and what kind of gain did you get? I'm thinking of getting the flo-pro dual in/dual out because it is quiet, unless someone has a better idea.

I have never heard any unhappy with their magnaflow purchase unless they just wanted something really loud.

i just had a flowmaster "big block series" muffler welded in place of the factory potato just temporarily. Once my dynatechs are on ill probly get the b&b cause i have fallen in love with the dual 4.5'' slash cut rolled tips exiting at the stock local. you cant freakin beat that.

i also was thinkin of buying a vette system and grafting that in but wasnt sure how it would mount up in the spare tire location. just some ideas for you mang

I personally do not want a loud truck, my old truck just resonated too damn much for my taste. It had a single 3" flowmaster 40. If you want something really loud, just dump dual 3" pipes right after the mufflers..it will be REALLY loud.

I basically want zero in cab resonance, I am thinking about getting a flo pro di/do, or just two regular mufflers with an x-pipe. I think magnaflow still resonates around 1800 (which is where I spend most of my driving time)

Just dump it out of the stock muffler?

I had some single chambered flows on my old 5.3 and I didn't notice any real bad cab resonance. I know where you coming from tho...
