White1, how does your truck sound compared to the magnaflow clips on ls1sounds.com? Does it have any of the crackle when you get off the gas significantly? Overall, I really liked the tone of the magnaflows alot better than the hookers so I'm heavily leaning in that direction.
For simplicity sakes, should I go with a centre/offset muffler or centre/centre? And has anyone else done this with a extremely new vehicle (1700 km) and had any warranty problems? Is there any chance my dealership could tell me to get bent if there are any non-exhaust related problems with the truck?

I wouldn't know how to explain the differences. No I don't get any crackling when I let off the gas. Just a good mellow tone all the time, at cruise, the road noise overpowers the exhaust. It sounds a lot like the clip on Magnaflow.com on the Silverado.
I went with 3" center in/out.
