Hey Guys,

Looking for a muffler nothing to lout but nothing to quiet have heard mixed opinions.

My thoughts thus far are the 14" magnaflow.

The 18" Magnaflow fits your description perfectly. The 14" will likely have more bark than you're looking for.

I assume you have the factory dual exhaust, and you plan on keeping the resonators.

Correct just changing the muffler my neighbor has the standard cab deleted his resonators and it's too loud obnoxious IMO. So 18" would give me some sound and not be obnoxious?

14" too much ? Any drone? There strictly cut and weld or is the OEM one bolted with clamps?

I ordered (and reccommend) you order the 18" Mufflex kit.

It's a simple bolt in, all stainless (like you factory exhaust) and doesn't effect anything downstream.

I had an issue with the 3" clamp on the front and with with a traditional style clamp (pretty common issue) and had ~40k miles on it without any issues. I often wished I had gone with the 14" because it was a touch to subtle for me.

That being said, I think it was an excellent option. You could tell it was on there, it had more snap, and sounded pretty darned mellow cruising around.

So you recommend the 18 over the 14? But the 18 was too quiet ? Where should I order ?
Mufflex in trenton makes the kits right? 263 ish?

Yeah,I would definately like to hear more of that Hemi I bought., but not a loud drone or harmonic distortion. Soubds like the 18" might fit the bill. Where do you buy to get the best price?

i have the 14" magnaflow on my 2011 quad cab, factory dual exhaust.
its not too loud. but you get a drone while driving at certain speeds.
if i stay driving at say 55mph, its downright unbearable. i usually speed up just to get rid of the drone.
i hate it with a passion. literally, hate it.
but oh well. i live with it... :) because i got the muffler for free from my friends at Moe's.

Yes! From what you originally posted, you're looking for what the 18" provided.
Often times, I wanted more snarl, bark and bite.
But I'm still a kid with my truck at times. I also don't have a wife, girlfriend nor family to get annoyed with a loud truck.

I googled Mufflex (this was years ago) and ordered it from some shop.
~250ish sounds correct.

I think some of our site sponsors might sell them as well with competitive pricing.

We also have them in stock at Moe's

We will match the $268 plus shipping or you can order it reg through the site with free shipping for $298. Which ever you find is a better deal for y'all.

To do the $268? If you want that deal during processing the order place on the sale ticket $268 plus shipping promo per Matt and Kenneth. That will get it straight bud.

Moes is the best deal. Ordering from Mufflex actually comes out more money with tax and shipping. Moes was cheaper by a few bucks and fast shipping.

i won a $100 "gift card" from Moe's in their monthly raffle they had in april. for every $100 purchase, your name was put in the drawing. so with the $100 credit, i purchased the magnaflow 14" muffler. i guess i shouldve clarified how i got it.

but dont hesitate to deal with MOE's. great prices. fast shipping. ive made 3 or 4 purchases thru them, and havent been let down yet.
