Thumbs up ISO Drone Free, Beastly Rumble Exhaust

Howdy! Once again a newbie is asking for your advice.

I've been trollng around here fo some time now and finally made my first truck purchase ever. It's a beautiful 2006 Supercrew Flareside FX4 loaded out! I'll be updating my garage with new pictures soon.

Now it's exhaust time! I need some advice on what kind of setup would get me what I am looking for. I've read the exhaust guide, listed to everyones set ups (loved DarrenWS6 and rllackey28's set ups the best) and listened to hundreds of YouTube videos but (surprise, surprise) I'm still indecisive.

Here's what I'm looking for and what I need. Can you help?

-Daily driver truck, 25k+ miles a year, 40/60 city/highway miles so I can't handle very much drone if any at all
-I will be installing sound deadening material in the entire cab including the floor to help reduce the interior noise
-I'd like the kind of sound that shakes the ground when it idles and crawls down the street in town
-Not opposed to any set up (SI/DO, True Duals etc) if it meets my needs
-Price IS an object, but my budget is pretty darn flexible if it's THE setup for me
-Very rarely tow my boat (dry stack FTW!) but its big and heavy when I do

I'm impressed if your still reading this and haven't checked out because this question has been posted about 10000000000000 times and would truly appreciate any feedback this community of intelligent, educated and handsome individuals...

Thanks for the props. My setup drones but it is up to each person on what they can live it. It doesn't bother me at all. If you like my sound I suggest starting out with a magnapack and doing a SIDO setup using a Y-pipe. That way if you want to change it out to true duals you only have to buy another magnapack and your waste is a bit of SIDO midpipe and the Y-pipe.

The op is hitting on everyone


But seriously, A magnapack would be a good starting point if you are going to sound deaden

Thanks for the suggestion. I had not thought about making a system that could be 'upgraded' down the road. I was looking at it as a one and done kind of deal! I ended up going with this exact setup and it is a bit milder than I anticipated. I have virtually no drone on the highway at the cost of volume in town but kept a nice low rumble tone that opens up when you step on it. A satisfied customer for the time being. Once I get the cab sound deadened, I may be ready to step up. Thanks again!

'Hitting on' is not the colloquialism I would elect to portray the initial purpose of my inquiry and the particular veneration displayed for the individuals specified in my commencing post.


But seriously, I did go with Magnaflow and really like the sound so far. I was told that after a while they would open up a little and the sound would change slightly. Thanks for the input! I'll post up some pictures etc as soon as I can.
