Hey everyone I know there’s a million threads out there on exhaust but I’m a little stuck. I currently have a 18 1500 5.7l, truck currently has a 18in magnaflow si/do. I like the acceleration of the magnaflow I just want a deeper tone at idle. I definitely would like to stay away from the raspy car sound.
Option 1 upgrade y pipe and add borla proxs 19in single in dual out. Retain factory reso’s and add 5in tips. Also open to switching the factory reso’s to borla if anyone has experience with aftermarket reso’s.
Option 2 full 2.25 dual exhaust with H pipe and dual borla proxs 14in mufflers. Retain factory reso’s and add 5in tips.
I’m open to other thoughts I’m not sure where the idle loses it’s punch. I’m a welder by profession will be building the system myself so nothing is off the table. I don’t want to wake the neighbors just want to add a real clean deep sound to the truck.
