JBA si/so 3" on 03 fx4?

So ive got me an 03 4.6l fx4 and wanting a nice sounding system to put on. I have the Magnaflow si/so 3" on my 06 5.4l and love it, but not wanting to spend the $500+ again for this one. So im looking at the JBA for it at around the $350 price. Just curious if anyone has/runs this system? How they like it or dont like it? Or any other system to look at that my be compareable in price. I like the sound of the maggie, not over loud but nice rumble. Will the JBA give me that? I like the single systems myself, not a fan of duals. Any thoughts?

You could order that muffler and have a shop run your pipes instead of buying the kit. It will be cheaper, and sound really good with shorties.

Well no, the JBA is worth looking into. But those other systems mentioned are more known around here and have excellent customer service.

Ah... order of importance? In that case, you must have gotten the Magnaflow and Borla backwards!

If I was gonna spend the kinda money for those others id buy the magnaflow without a doubt! But the jba is $350, a lot cheaper. Plus banks, mbrp, roush doesn't make a system for the 03 model. Only 04 and up. I really just wanted to know if anybody had this and their thoughts on it. Hell ill just try it anyway and see how it is lol!

No not order of importance, I just deleted that pesky Flowmaster system and replaced it with MBRP.
