I have found a couple differant options for my 05 RAM 1500 with the 5.7 liter hemi. Has enyone used the Magniflow or the Flowmaster with dual output?

How does it sound?

I am only looking the make it sound a little better without being extreamly loud.

depends on the system you look at bro, the 2 chamber systems are loud as hell in the cab but sound mean and while the 3 chamber sound less aggressive they are more tolerable for daily driving. If the Latter is what you want then I would consider the Flowmaster 50-series H.D. system, if you want the first one then the 40-series is for you.

Magnaflow outflows the Flowmaster about double with a nice mellow tone. Plus they are all stainless and wont rot out in 5 years like the Flowmaster does.
Went that route on my 01 F150, never again. Magnaflow is much better.

Well i took mine down to my buddy. He put a 3" pipe to a 50 series flowmaster, then a 3 1/2" mandrel bend off of a chevy diesel truck after the muffler, with a 4" stainless tip. $300. It sounds awesome. Took off both resonators and the muffler. Rather quiet inside, but sounds great outside, and none of that wierd "camaro" sounding exhaust with some systems. I cant describe the sound, but I have heard a bunch of dodge trucks sound like it and hate it!!!
