Then you want Hooker Maxflows...they're less than $70 each.

Oh and the 1st and 2nd most powerful mufflers in the test were the Flowtech Warlock with the cutout open and the Bassani Real Street which I've never seen anywhere...Borla XS was the quietest BTW and I think came in 4th or 5th in power.

I had the Borla XS for 4 years on my tahoe... quiet at first, but it got really loud at the end of its life (the fiberglass burned out). Replaced it with a 22" Magnaflow 3" and it sounds almost stock unless I get on the gas. They have a 18" muffler as well that's a little louder. I'm sticking with magnaflow from now on.
