Default does your 3" exhaust resonate??

I've got Pacesetters with the ORY and I'm looking at doing just a single 3" exhaust. I would like to make it a little quieter, but I don't want to get a muffler that resonates in the cab.

Currently I have dual 2.5" dynomax ultraflo's, which are a straight through design....and they don't resonate.

Any input?

I agree way to pricey, but I want Corsa. The sound is awesome, but it is hard for me to spend the extra if there is no performance benefit. Magnaflow would be a good choice IMO.

I have a Magnaflow catback and it doesn't drone at all. I think some may find it too quiet, but I wanted something that I didn't have to hear unless I wanted to. I'd recommend it to anyone.

I'll personally never buy another Corsa product again after my experience with their F-body mufflers' internals breaking and rattling until you replaced it. Sure, it has a lifetime warranty, but who feels like having to deal with it after you paid $800+ for it?

Does anybody have experience with the Magnaflow on a catless 6.0L?

I have the smallest Magnaflow in 3". With no cats, it resonated a little, so I added a Bullet in front of it (I have two mufflers on a single exhaust setup) and the resonance went away. I think it sounds great.
