Default Hi everyone, exhaust question.

I'm looking to install a new exhaust system on my truck. Could any of you recommend a good brand? I drive a 2004 GMC Sierra with over 100k miles, 4.8L. I don't like glass packs. I'm looking for a dual-exit system.

Thanks in advance for replies.

For a lower cost I would go with a magnaflow. You can also go with a knock off called accelerator. Flowmasters and the knock off of Flowmasters drone real bad. Or on a higher end exhaust you could go with a corsa or borla

I run a 24" magnaflow, I would recommend to anyone, no drone and a great sound!

I agree with the Magnaflow! Noticable but not over the top like the blap blap of of a flowmaster...

I love the sound of my flowmaster super 40, I don't notice any drone, have a single 3" side exit without a tip. It's somewhat hidden and I like it that way

I just run tru dual exhaust on mine. Its dual in dual out. It has a built x in it. I still added an xpipe befor it. All stainless because aluminized deadens. Stainless keeps a crisp sound and looks better too
