I'm running a B&B dual rear exit. Small clip. The truck was running odd that day, hance the 'hang time' with the revs.
Anytime you touch the throttle, the exhaust note is always "angry". At idle it's not too loud... but driving around - there is no doubt that you have your foot on the gas, even the smallest amount. I like it a lot. It has a nice clean note through the RPM range. I don't think it's all that loud when revving out.
Interior wise: There is no resonation or brain melting humm. Just a nice powerfull rumble that you can sometimes feel in the floorboards. It's very deep.
Performance - I put it on when I was almost 100% stock. I picked up low end power - I noticed I could cruise up hills and roll along using less throttle. I gained a little bit of gas mileage also. I noticed the motor would rev out a little easier on the top-end. I don't have any other info and I don't have any numbers.

I'm still debating on what I need to buy...

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)
