Which 3" Exhaust Sounds the Best??
I don't want to go with Flowmaster exhaust set up that includes a single outlet muffler, and Borla is too expensive. Anyone used Pacesetter, or maybe Edelbrock with a flowmaster.

Check out Hooker. Very nice system. Not too expensive either. You get the entire cat-back including chrome quad tips that IMHO look pretty bad*ss. Quieter than flowmaster, especially at idle, but really open up at WOT.
The flowmaster catbacks ar good too, and I'm almost positive that they do make one with a dual outlet muffler included. Although I'm not sure it it's a 3" or not...

I used to have stock exhaust with a flowmaster muffler, it sounded ok.. When I went to a 3" system with headers and cat, it sounds MEAN now... I love it and I would recommend it over anything i've heard so far..

Does the Hooker system have a 3" pipe going to the muffler? I like the sound and look of it,just wondering how well it flows. From what ive read the mufflers with the 2 pipes on opposite side. Dont flow as well a two/single tail pipe on the left muffler. And usually have a 2.5 or 2.75 pipe going to the muffler.
IM thinking about getting the hooker system when my Dynomax system wears out.
