Of the choices you presented, definately Magnaflow.

If it was MY trucks, however, I'd be looking at Spintech Sportsmans, Flowmaster single-chamber race mufflers, or stainlessworks chambered old school mufflers.

Also, another thing that I'm almost positive no one has tried yet, Ford Racing sells a pair of mufflers for their 03/04 Cobra exhaust kit(an aftermarket kit, not the stock one...) that contains dual-mode, pressure-valved mufflers. They go from turbo-style muffler with light to medium exhaust pressure, to WIDE OPEN STRAIGHT PIPE when the pedal is down. I hear that they are pretty nice sounding on Terminators, mellow until you romp on it, so you might put some thought into those.

It's the exact same concept, so yeah. Same thing they do on Ferraris too. I don't think any of the sponsors sell them, so I'll PM you with the dealer that I would trust if you want to see more about em...

on the vettes there is a cutout in the tip. Crusing speeds the air flows through the other tip and at wot its straight through.

I'd say keep the Corsa and just put some Hi-flow cats back on.
