I've read a TON of information here about exhausts, and I think I've made up my mind. Basically it seems DarrenWS6 throws most of the info around in here and knows his stuff. His truck sounds awesome too!
I'm looking for some sound improvement mainly. I don't want it loud but don't want it quiet either.
I'm thinking the 18" body is what I want.
I have two part numbers though, and I'm not sure what is right. 12256 or 12586?
Also how much am I looking to spend for a new tail pipe? Perferably stainless as that's better then aluminized and whats on the truck currently? I'm thinking si/so but having it come out at more of an angle then stock with a tip.
Also what tip size is recomended? Stainless there too or is Chromed alright?
Thanks for any help!!!

I'm kind of in a rush, but I'll try to answer what I can in a quick bit. I might recommend the Magnaflow 14" Body. The 12256 is an 18", the 12586 is a 22". Stainless will cost you quite a bit, probably around 200(maybe i'm wrong). I'd recommend 3.5" or 4"x18" Tip. Stainless steel definitely on the tip, Chrome you'll have to replace every year or two. Hope I helped you out.
