Default Exhaust.. check

well, I've got the LTs all on and a 2.5in Y into a 3in pipe and I ****** love it. The drive home from my dad's shop was a little long on open headers, haha, but it was alright just to say I've done it. But I have a snag.. FLOWMASTERS SUCK! I just put it on and jetted home from the muffler shop and I already want the ****** off. Any suggestions other than magnaflow? I have no cats and still want it loud but the flowmaster sounds almost as bad as the Aerochamber on my buddy's 6.0

congrats, got to love lt headers. want kind of sound you looking for? everyone has their own preference. i still love a chambered muffler, not the best for flowing tho. i think magnaflow sound like glasspacks, just cost more. when you going to try the cam install again?

I love my magnaflow. Borla has always sounded good to me.

spintech sportsman streets sound pretty good on my '66 truck. It's dumped underneath, so it reverbs off the underside of the bed, but still sounds pretty good. I'll be going with spintech pro-streets for the 4.8, but thats cause I'll still be rockin the cats.

yeah Im thinkin a race series magnaflow.. I took the flowmaster off and as much as I used to like straight pipe's sound not no more.. I kinda like the raspy-ness of the LTs with the 2.5 into 3in But I really need a muffler for some back pressure and sound. Im interested in a glasspack but I dont wanna spend another 80 bux on a Magnaflow and not like it so anyone got some sound clips to give me?
