Question Gibson vs. Flowmaster vs. whatever

I have been thinking about putting a Gibson Supertruck cat-back exhaust on my 4.6L V8. I want an aggressive sound that will make my parents yell when I come home to visit. Everyone has their opinions and I wanna hear everyone's!!! Thanx
Cheers

FLOWMASTER, if you want it loud 40 series orig!!! If you want it not as loud inside, 50 series delta flow, some say they rust, but I have NEVER herd of one rusting in Cali, best sound out there.... That with 2.75" si/so on your truck will sound great...

Any small muffler will be loud. Flowmaster 40 Series has that reputation. Being in Conn, you probably want something that will last more than 2 winters. A stainless steel small Magnaflow muffler with 3" tail pipe should be $150 or less.

Whom ever said that Flowmaster does not make mufflers that will not withstand a winter when they have a line of stainless steel mufflers? I rest my case on this Stainless steel 40 series delta flow mufflers

The baffles will still be broken in 2 years. Maybe longer, but sometimes less. Flowmaster just doesn't weld them very well inside.
