I've heard the magna flows and in my opinion they sound more ricy then the flowmaster. As for the Stebro, I havn't heard one yet. The flowmaster sounds a little Euro exotic to me. Alittle like a hot ferarri

LOL...I was going to say the exact opposite! I find the Flowmasters to be higher pitched like a ricer exaust. The Magnaflows have a deeper quality like a nice V8 and a little more burble. I have heard the Stebro exaust before and to me it is ricey as hell. To each his own. Your best bet is to hold off until a meet if possible and hear the options in person, then decide.

If I could do it all over again I would stay stock. ANY aftermarket exhaust is going to sound a little ricey. I have a Stebro. It sounds good, but is louder than Christ. I must be getting older.......

personally go i would go with the muffler. till the tranny goes and 5 or mt is installed (if thats your plan). i redid my whole set up dual no cats not thinking of that. once my tranny goes im redoing mine simalar fixing minor defects (placement and products used). i will have to disconnect all pipes during the tranny swap and renstall or just redo the exhuast. i have awhile before my tranny bites it. so i figure it was a good thing i replaced to run on for at least 2 or more years.

I guess it depends on the set-up. The magnaflows I've heard were full exhaust (with high flow cats & no Resinator). I still have the stock cats and the resinator. Mine is quite a bit quieter then the Magna that I heard.
