cant go wrong with magnaflows,there are a straight through design with stainless steel packing so it wont blow out after time and are fairly mellow at idle and crusing but sound great at WOT.thast what i run on my mustangs and the wifes 04 explorer

I will get in on the Magnaflow too...
Ive got a 96 with a 460 and I run headers into 3" SS with an 18" bodied magnaflow and it sounds amazing... very deep tone, well behaved around town but step on it and watch out...... I've embarrassed quite a few of the cheby guys with there fancy exhausts when they get up beside me and they stomp on it... .had a few follow me to the gas station to ask what I have under it too...then they are floored when I tell em its not a dual exhaust.. Just can't beat the sound of a good flowing big block.. I figured I'd save some money and about 40lbs with my single exhaust plus duals are hard to do with dual tanks....and man am I glad I did...
BTW, I replaced a dronemaster (flowmaster) with the magnaflow...lol Way, way, way better sound... But the best part is that I got rid of that damn drone inside the cab when cruising down the highway....
