What's a quiet muffler that still makes power?
I'm installing LT's/ORY in a few weeks and I'll have a e-cutout so while the cutout is closed, I'd like a quiet muffler that doesn't absolutely choke the power. Any suggestions? I'm thinking about a Hooker Aerochamber with a Corsa style side tip. Thanks!

I have a 7" round 12" long Magnaflow bullet into a 22" Magnaflow big case muffler. Pretty quiet. Tried a 5" round before the 22" but still too loud. The 22" alone was really, really loud with the catless LT's, it would set car alarms off when I started it.

I love my flo-pro, it is quiet behind my 6.0 with no drone, it seems to flow well over the stock muffler it has more power everywhere.

The other day my buddy test drove an 06 CCSB 5.3 with a cam and full exhaust. It haf a diesel cat back and sounded awesome. I just can't find many 3" diesel c/b's.

FWIW, I presently have longtubes, off road Y, 3" pipe to Hooker AeroChamber, then into Dynomax 1 into 2 SuperTurbo muffler with 2.5" tailpipes. Sounds good (and is very quiet at cruise rpm's) but I just can't leave well enough alone, LOL...
AeroChamber with open 1 into 2 adapter so I could keep my dual tailpipes was entirely too loud and raspy...sounded like burned out glasspacks, which IMHO, sounded like ****...

Flo Pro. I have the 2503 on my 05 1500HD and I really like it. It's quiet, as in dead stock muffler quiet. I don't notice any additional sound over the stocker it replaced and it has probably 1000 or more miles on it now. The only reason I changed the stock one out was it had a baffle break inside it and make a constant rattling sound, lol. Can't comment on power but they apparently flow very well. I don't feel any difference on muffler swapped stock trucks.....
