Default Magnaflow Muff in route for my 6.2L

I got this muffler for 30$ cheaper than amazon was selling it for, I actually offered the guy about 10$ cheaper than his "Buy it now" and he accepted =)

3.5" / 2.5" -5x11 Oval 22" MagnaFlow Muffler PSS 14587 - eBay (item 200631978588 end time Jul-25-11 15:04:50 PDT)

With any luck it should arrive today and i'll get it installed tomorrow, I plan on removing the stock catback at the time, so if anybody is interested I might sell it for the right price. Video clips coming soon.

I have a similar magnaflow but with dual 3" out. It's fairly quiet with stock manifolds and has a slight drone at low rpm's

I see I'm not the only one that has headers collecting dust lol. I'll be changing my entire exhaust setup soon (I hope anyway)

Well the G/F is geting bent im dropping so much money on my "New Truck". I got the LT's, Flowmaster dual 3in to 3.5in out merger and all the hardware for the installation, but I want to have enough money to have the Y-Pipe made and then drive it straight to my Tuner for the tune. I just don't feel safe driving a brand new truck around with no cats on a factory tune lol.

My wife doesn't like me doing it either. I have longtubes, muffler, cai and a stall all sitting in the garage. Been talking to a local member about doing the stall and tune for me. I want to do it all at once if time allows

Im about to go pick the truck up now, I have to take it back to a GMC Dealership for the Check engine light since its a warranty item. She did mention it had something to do with low fuel pressure. (Which would explain what i was talking to you about the other day when i floor it after geting gas)

Anyways, hopefully all the cosmetics are in order and I don't have to keep F&^kin with this dealership.

Yeah I'm in the same boat with my wife; after the leveling kit, the tires, the MIT+drop-in, and the exhaust, I'm now trying to convince her to let me drop $3000 on the truck. She isn't pleased in the least with that idea
