Just a question, I am thinking about getting a pair of 3" c/c for my truck. When you say louder....do you mean deeper, raspy, or just like decibel increase.

AP, mine is setup with a 3" pipe running back about a foot, and then turning down before the axle. Fit perfectly into the stock hanger that way.

Oh, and for me louder=more audible volume

Ok, I have read every damn exhaust post and the Aerochamber is the winner. Gotta talk to the mrs. and tell her to tell santa to stop by summit on his way. I have had Aerochambers before on an old GMC Jimmy, but now I'm convinced to put them on the Burb. Thanks everyone.

I have a 2005 Silverado Ext Cab w/4.8 and I want a more aggressive rumble to it. I have decided on a Hooker Aerochamber, that is a given, the thing is I can't decide which one to get. I don't really like the exhaust tips showing so I was definetly going with (a) turndown(s).

If I get a 3"in/3"out I am dumping it BEFORE the rear axle. However, if I go with a 3"in/Dual 2.5"out then I am going with turndowns immediately after the rear axle.

I don't know which 3"in/3"out to get or how much interior drone will result due to the turn down before the axle.

I'm also worried that getting the 3"in/Dual 2.5"out will be too quiet as the shortest case it comes in is 20" [21729] (I've read on here that the longer the body is quieter)

If anyone can chime in and help me make a decision that I won't regret I will highly appreciate it. Thanks.
Hey friend, if you want a great flowing muffler, with a damn good loud sound.....then get a Ravin' brand muffler......I love em'

keep on reading the whole thread, l33z71 and I just installed the hookers this week and like bluecajun said its probably just a matter of getting some miles on them so it could sound better... I installed mine on monday and have only driven it for about 100miles and I can really tell the difference from monday an today...I guess they just need to be broken in...believe me I have heard your videos many of times, thats what made me get one but right now mine dont sound like yours... it sounds like yours at idle but @ WOT mine has a whole different sound
