Exhaust Comparison Video
So, after a long enough wait...mostly between work and homework here's a quick video of my Magnaflow muffler (before) and my Aero Turbine muffler (After). There was some debating on a couple different threads about how the Aero Turbine might sound on our trucks since apparently nobody had ever heard of the company or didn't know too much about it, or didn't want to try it out, or whatever the case may be. So, as far as I know, I'm the first to try one of these mufflers on my rig. There are a few before and after photos down below, ending with a quick video for sound comparison between the two.
My Dyno'd HP was 100 and Torque at 139 with the magnaflow (still have to do an after dyno with the now current Aero) and my mileage was 16.4mpg @ 60mph highway WITH the VMAf mod at 2 clicks lean. After swapping out the mufflers, increasing my highway speed to 65mph I'm now getting 20.6mpg with no other changes to the truck. That's just over a 20% increase in mileage for $150 worth of muffler and an ROI of about 3 months with the current gas prices.
Anyways without further a du...
The Magnaflow muffler:
Well, I can't find one of it on my truck...TONS of photos to go through, but the part number is listed in the video.

Part number for the Aero Turbine is #2525 and also listed in the video.

WOW! Only getting 100hp and 139tq out of a 150 hp, 180tq motor? Maaan...talk about power losses! ![hillbilly](https://www.yotatech.com/forums/images/smilies/hillbilly.gif)
Sounds SWEEEEEET though man. DANG! I like both. The Aero is a little louder though, eh?
Also, for whatever reason, whenever I see pictures of your truck, it always looks like its levitating (to me)... I think its the red sliders...

I guess I like both mufflers, but I'm after as much efficency (whatever I can get, yea I know the 3.0 sucks but I like it) as I can get for as cheap as I can get it.

I'm going to eventually get my cat-back exhaust done, but don't want a muffler that's too loud . I mean, I want a muffler that will give me a little sound, but NOT on the INSIDE of my truck. It sounds like this might be my muffler choice...BTW, would you mind telling us how much you got it for?
About the tires, I have the same exact ones, but I NEVER hear them howl on the highway (and I have the stock exhaust too).

Shoua,
Their not LOUD loud, I can hear a little whining sound above the wind, but it's not bad at all. I'm running about 36psi in the tires, maybe I should run less? lol

When I had 32 inch MTR's on my old '91 pickup, I used to only run 25 psi in the streets. But then again, I had those stiff Downey torsion bars on my truck.

Oh, my bad...
The muffler cost me $125.25 without shipping or tax, I think I paid just under $200 with getting new pipe bent as well. And yea, it's pretty quiet in the cab, just took a 2 hr drive last night hoping my CEL fix actually worked (Code 71) and yea the light hasn't come back on. My lady liked it too, but she said the droning of the Mag in the cab put her to sleep quicker lol. I prefer the Aero cause its quieter and gave me a lot better mileage too. The throttle felt lighter and more responsive overall in the rev's and while shifting.
One thing I might add, this muffler is designed to be mounted a specific way (inlet and outlet with the exhaust flow) and not universal like the Magnaflow. Also, there's no packing inside the muffler. If you're looking for something quieter, they make a 2525XL that has a built in resonator that quiets things down a bit more than what you hear in my video.

That's a pretty good price for that muffler. I was expecting, like, $200 or something for all that shine.

I've seen that muffler on eBay for $95 every couple of weeks the same guy posts one up for grabs for i think 5 days, then I cant find him again for another week or two. timing was off so I bought it elsewhere (eBay still).
Good luck!
