Default Best Muffler???

Im looking to put a new muffler on my Comanche 4.0 high output. I've been looking at MagnaFlow all the way to Cherry Bomb. I want that loud, mean sound but still clean, not some ****ty glass pack noise. What do you guys recommend?? Thanks!

I run a highflow cat with a ****ty glasspack noise and love it. Imo its one of the better sounding ones i have owned and or heard. Although this is a opinion question more then anything and best option has been said already and the other 5 thousand threads with the exact same topic. Youtube is ur best bet.

youtube is not your best bet. I listened to all sorts of mufflers and a lot of them sound bad because people have ****ty cameras.
I hated the way my thrush welded sounds on youtube. but it's fine in person

I ran with a Magnaflow for a couple months. The first 2 weeks it sounds decent....then my dreams were crushed. Started sounding like a dam tuna boat. No lie.

Do not go anywhere near Magnaflow for a deep mean sound.
I bought a Flowmaster Super 40 and fell in love. The best is that it gets louder as you break it in.

Go Flowmaster. Just do it, and you won't be disappointed.

I would pick one that you will not get pulled over for.
