Best exhaust system??

I'm thinking of getting an exhaust system for my truck but I'm unsure on which one to go with. For awhile I was thinking of Magna but still unsure. What do you all think. Thanks

Everyone is going to have a different opinion on this one. As suggested above, it all depends on what sounds you're looking for. I don't like loud exhaust systems. I drive my truck 120 miles 5-days a week, so I want it to be a comfortable commute. I went with the Roush "Street Legal" package.

This kit is nice and quiet at idle and while cruising, and has a nice deep tone at WOT. I also have an Edge. Setting it to level 2 or 3 will make it quite a bit louder. Furthermore, I had a 77-series K&N intake. With that installed the sound sucked when on level 2 or 3. I swapped over to the stock kit and love it. By the seat-of-the-pants meter there is no power loss...

i had a magnaflow sido but it didnt like my rear suspension(lowered) so i had to take if off. now i have the roush side exit exhaust and i love it! its not really loud at idle but when u stomp down on it, it roars! i dont know if its just me but it feels like at the performance end its better too.

Magnaflow. The Flows I had on my last truck droned way too much. It's got a low,deep rumble at idle and cruising around, but when you get on it it wakes up.

I have the FlowMaster 50 Series Delta Flow SI/DO. If I lost any low end torque Mike Troyer found it with my tunes. I really like the sound.

Magnaflow. Great sound... and, in my honest opinion, a definite difference in the feel of the pedal WITHOUT any tune.

I'm tuned now but, I was Magna'd before the tunes.

I have the Banks Monster Exhuast and it is not loud in the cab at all, just a nice deep tone. Others say it is loud that might depend on their type of cab maybe, I have a supercrew.

Mine's the Supercab with a tuner and cold air intake. 66-69 MPH I have to speak loudly to talk to my passanger. You're lucky, I'll be Ebaying mine next spring.
