Straight back. Classic look, but still my favorite.

Has any one just changed the muffler with a performance muffler(Magnaflow or Gibson)? Im asking because the stock exhaust looks like its a decent size and personally I think that getting bigger might be an overkill. (Thats just my two cents) Anyway I like out turned out behind the wheels with a niceset ofdecent sized tips. U should get a pic when u get it done.

Yes too big is overkill. You will lose too much low end torque. I know as I did it and then had to put on reducers to get the power back. I would change it from the muffler back.

The older 5.7 can handle the true dual, but the 5.3 needs a tighter exhaust.

Unless you always have your foot in it.
