Has a great rumble when you get going but tones down on the highway a little. I've had Magna Flow Exhaust Systems on 3 different trucks and I've never had a problem with them and they have always sounded great. _____________________________ 2002 Silverado 2500HD Crew Cab, Veraram King Cobra Cold Air Intake, Magna Flow Exhaust System, Interco Trxus 33x10.50R16 M/T (in reply to 20032500HD) Post #: 2

I haven`t made up my mind if I want that or the new Gibson on my NBS Crew cab 5.3  (in reply to 02HEAVYDUTY) Post #: 3

A friend of mine had one on his 5.2L Dakota and it had a really great sound too. Either or would probably do great for your truck. _____________________________ 2002 Silverado 2500HD Crew Cab, Veraram King Cobra Cold Air Intake, Magna Flow Exhaust System, Interco Trxus 33x10.50R16 M/T (in reply to Fireguy8) Post #: 4

Recommendations: Generally used on early and late-model street/strip vehicles with or without catalytic converters seeking a more aggressive tone. An H-Pipe is strongly recommended in all dual exhaust systems. 50 Series Mufflers Mellow yet powerful sound in most applications. Quieter than 40 Series mufflers outside. A special "Tuning Chamber" helps reduce interior resonance at most driving speeds. Recommendations: Most all street/strip applications with or without catalytic converters. Off-Road/Race applications. An H-Pipe is strongly recommended in all dual exhaust systems. 30 Series Mufflers Mellow yet powerful tone. The sound level is a little quieter than the "50 Series" outside of the vehicle, but with more of that "original Flowmaster sound." The combination of added case volume and the unique "volume chamber" creates a larger low pressure area behind the chamber than a "50 Series" muffler. This leads to better scavenging of exhaust gases, and a sound that is exclusive to the "30 Series" muffler. Recommendations: For use on all high performance street/strip applications. Use on Late Model Trucks with single exhaust and catalytic converters that prefer more tone, or trucks with dual exhaust. An H-Pipe is strongly recommended in all dual exhaust systems. Big Block Series Mufflers Mellow tone. Increased volume of case size and a specially developed "Tuning Chamber" makes this the quietest muffles in the Flowmaster Line, both inside the vehicle, and outside the vehicle. Recommendations: For use on all high performance street vehicles, Chevy/GMC Suburbans, Tahoes, Yukons, trucks used as tow vehicles, and most all Motorhome/R.V. applications. An H-Pipe is strongly recommended in all dual exhaust systems. _____________________________ 2007 Chevrolet Silverado EXT.CAB.
