Magnaflow experts. Oval vs Round Magnaflow
Truck: 2011 Silverado CCSB z71 4x4 5.3L Exhaust will be turned down..
Question 1: So as the thread states I'm looking for the pro's cons to the oval vs round magnaflows.
Question 2: I'm also curious what do the different muffler diameters offer on the round ones. I know length is proportional to sound with longer being quieter, but I see there are 4" diamter and 5" diameter etc.
Question 3: I formerly had a 40 series on a 5.3L, and went with a 50 series on a 6.0L. I have since realized how bad chambered mufflers are from a performance perspective and was wondering which magnaflow muffler size likely compares sound wise the most? I was thinking 18" muffler body. Thoughts?

the round use less space, but are inherently louder do to less material inside the muffler.
Question 2: I'm also curious what do the different muffler diameters offer on the round ones. I know length is proportional to sound with longer being quieter, but I see there are 4" diamter and 5" diameter etc.
again, the bigger case size, the more material inside, therefore should be quieter. that goes for length and diameter.
