I was about to go with the Thrush Welded, but went with Magnaflow instead. Hell, i can buy both, do the comparison myself, and still spend less money than a whole kit.

I have the 12 inch glasspack 30 dollars. Works and sounds good.

Muffler came in. Chopped a 14in section off between the front/rear doors, since there is a nice section of straight pipe there. Tossed the Magnaflow on, clamped it down, and chopped the stock muffler off. If i were to do it again, I'd take the stock muffler off first. Trying to yank it off is a PITA when you chop off a mid-section so you have to 1 hand the muffler, and 1 hand the pipe to pull apart. Overall little less than an hours work if you have an angle cutter (hacksaw would suck). Will try to make a video on youtube and link it here. If i can figure out this technology stuff.

exactly what i did i think it was 23 bucks with tax and i removed the old muffler so the exhaust outlet is bent down over the rear axle.

Here is a sound test for it. Starts in the rear then goes into a closed top/door cab sound. Sounds scratchy on my phone speaker, but earphones, or real speakers on you comp will make it sound how it really is. Hope this helps.
