  • What mufflers sound good on trucks?

    A little off topic post. Im buying my brothers old pick up cause I am in need of a truck. Its a 97 chevy 1500 with a 350 vortech. The truck is straight piped, true dual exhaust 2.5 all the way from the headers to 3 inch tips at the corner of the bumper, sounds good untill it hits about 3500 rpms then crackels so I wanted to know what mufflers you have on your trucks or what you think sounds good.

              flo pro is a really common one, probably best bang for your buck

                Everyone around here seems to have Flowmaster on their trucks. But if those have the same issues as the style we use, I'd say go with Magnaflow.

                  Im not a big fan of glass packs, dont like the way they sound. I was looking at some flowmasters. I dont want to quiet it up a lot, just get rid of the crackle. Ill check out flo pros.

                    Is it a done deal on that truck? Why not go 99+ to get more power, better ride, better fuel economy, etc?

                      careful tom, you know who might come in here and cry about you asking why not a newer one.

                      anyways.. magnaflows sound pretty good on trucks IMO. not real loud but have a good tone to them.

                        The flowmasters actually sound really good on the chevy and dodge trucks. Sounds nothing like they do on our cars.

                            obviously they wont sound like a 6. but that doesnt necessarily mean better either.

                            ive heard a vortec truck with borla's and it was pretty damn mean sounding, although a bit to loud for my taste.

                              an ex of mine's dad had a gmc with a borla setup that sounded mean, i was always a big fan. i've heard plenty of flowmaster trucks that fit the bill too, but borla has my vote anyday :D
