Please post some more detailed specifications on what you are looking for out of an exhaust, such as, loudness, clear tone, deep tone, crackle,raspy tone, interior drone level, exhaust material steel grade, price range... and I may think better of my answer, but you really cant do better than Magnaflow out of the three you posted.

if your going for loudness and a good sounding muffler i would go flowmaster then magnaflow...never heard a hearttrob...

magnaflows sound pretty good and flowmasters do to, but magnaflows will help with the performance and probably be a little bit cheaper

ive had flowmasters on all of my trucks even my 4.0 v6 ranger but not my 82 f250 351w true dual straights all the way

i like flowmasters

Flowmaster will sound better. I have true dual exhaust with an x-pipe and two 14" Flow Masters straight out the back and it sounds very good. I had the same size Magna Flows on my last truck and it did not sound quite as loud when accelerating. Both of them sounded the same at low speeds and idle.

Its possible that this is ok. My question is why not go with someone proven that has been around for a while like Magnaflow. You get these fly-by-night companys that are here make there money and then get out. I have had my exhaust on my car for 5 years now and have worked here for 2+ years. Plus you have to question the warranty. Our systems are backed by a Lifetime Warranty. Im not knocking there system but just stating the facts about ours. Hope this helps you out
