Take those purple hornies and throw them in the nearest trash can. They produce the most unrefined, old redneck ford farm truck noise. If you want a nice, hollow, metallic sound, go with flowmaster. If you would like a more controlled and deeper sound , go with magnaflow, borla or dynomax. I am not a fan of flowmaster simply because everything I took a flowmaster off of went faster and got better gas mileage and didn't blow header gaskets. When I say faster I mean like 3 tenths and 2 miles per gallon. 12.6 to a 12.3in the quarter by unscrewing 1 of the 2 1-1/2" pipe dumps. No joke. When I have a customer that wants to sound faster, we go with flowmaster. When they want a custom no loss exhaust, magnaflow, borla or straight through resonator depending on sound volume and budget. I enjoy using mandrel bent stainless, because that in itself creates a sound no muffler can reproduce.
