Exhaust worth it?

ok, i have been trying to sell my new Magnaflow muffler, but am having a tough time. so I am thinking about just putting it on my truck.

I have an 05 5.4 3v FX4
Mods: AEM CAI, 33" Nitto Tires, Edge tuner being sent out for Gryphon Tunes.

I love the way the CAI sounds, its more like a purr
IMO mufflers give a rumble. how does the purr and rumble sound together?

also, is an 18" maggie pretty quiet? I dont want it to be loud at all, just a little louder than stock. will I lose alot of back pressure with a SIDO 2.5" in, 2.5" out? will i notice any gains at all?

help me decide! thanks

You wont lose back pressure, it is straight through but its not a straight pipe exhaust affect, it does hit inside of the muffler to return pressure.

The 18" Magnaflow is a calm, deep toned muffler. Not loud at all to me. So you will be alright.
