I'm going to the muffler shop in a week and half. The guy at the muffler shop stocks Flowmaster, but can order Magnaflow. I wanna get a muffler that sounds barely louder than stock, or just as quiet as stock. My reasons for getting a muffler replacement are not for sound, but for performance and fuel economy.
The muffler shop owner said the performance gains for a Magnaflow and Flowmaster would be the same, but that the Flowmaster would help fuel economy and the Magnaflow wouldn't.
I haven't heard either one in person, but going by what I've heard on youtube, I'm slightly partial towards Magnaflow. I also know that Magnaflow is much more popular.
Supposedly, he'll let me hear both of them on my truck, but I have my doubts if he'll actually go through all the trouble of doing that.
So what are y'all's thoughts? What are the pros and cons of each?
