If your lookin for loud, run true dual straight pipes. Sounds perfect IMO

I haven't installed the MAGNAFLOW and "duels" yet, I'm in PANAMA for a couple of weeks....soon as I get back to MIAMI I'll put em on and take PICS.

If PAW-PAW is around maybe he can show you a PIC, he has the set-up I'm going for, I think he's got what you want.

There are vids of it in my photobucket..

I have a Flowmaster super40 si/do, and a cutout right before that. I leave that open most of the time.

I see you have an 04, just straight pipe it first and see how you like it, since you have 4 cats the straight pipe is pretty mellow. But hack 2 cats out and she'll bark

Sorry I don't have a better picture of the exhaust but you can get the idea here.

Magnaflow Muffler and 3" Magnaflow Tips 45'd out each rear after the tires Pretty much where the single pipe did from the factory.

I love the sound of it... Not to loud but not to quite! And IMO looks ****!!

Muffler is a 18 inch body...

I was originally gonna go with a straight pipe but I have heard a lot of negative things about it such as worse economy and loss of power..

I was thinking about doin that on my last truck. I guess the sound bounces off the road and under the truck so you get a different sound. Try the straight pipe with a turn down and i bet it'd sound decent

Also with the 2 vs 4 cat thing, my cousin and I have the exact same setup as me for exhaust, true duals, but i have an 05 with 2 cats vs his 04 with 4 and mine is louder noticeably. So i'm sure high flow cats of some sort wouldn't hurt
