Sick sounding truck

I'm not sure if I should ask this question here or in the Lightning section but I'm guessing I'd have a better response here.

Does anybody have a guess on what kind of exhuast this Lightning has? It doesn't sound like a typical Lightning. One of the nicest sounding ones I've ever heard.

I have no clue what exhaust that is, but it does sound badass, it sounds so deep and throaty. Actually it's got it's own wicked sound to it.

It does sound like a Corvette. I wanna say its Magnaflow. Its quiet until throttles given, and it sounds like a Corvette with Magnaflow and a few other mods.

I was kidding. I personally don't like them because I've had bad experiences with them.....two seperate vehicles.

Although after being on this forum and listening to some youtube videos I have changed my view about them a little but I would never buy that brand again.

Kinda think they're over-rated.

Just my .02

Oh well thats a bummer. What were the bad experiences? When I decided the Roush off-road was too rich for me I went and bought two Super 44 Flowmasters to replicate the exhaust I had on my old Silverado ( hi-flow cats, true duals, super 44s ) and last minute i ordered two 11" magnaflows, never heard anyone use the 11s much, and wanted to be different, and louder than the normal. I achieve that with my exhaust and am quite happy, but I wish it droned more and sounded louder like a chambered muffler system would, but the performance and economy is great. Overall, a satisfied Magnaflow custom here, proud to wear their t-shirt.
