I had magnaflow hiflow cats, srt headers and SLP loudmouth catback which are essentially straight pipes with small expansion chambers. Sounded nasty! But ultimately I couldn't take the drone - it was unbearable climbing at freeway speed. So I swapped for corsa sport.
Here's what that setup sounded like

No way in hell I'd do it. Especially if it's a daily driver. The loudness gets old in a hurry.

solo x has a sweet sound and plenty of hemi roar when you get on it, no drone.

I have a Dynomax kit. no drone to speak of and still has a nice rumble. No way I'd want straight pipes.

I loved my solo x with the j's. They were so bad ass with no drone. Nice deep roar! It saddened me to have to chop them up when I put the 9" rear. Now I have straight pipes with the exhaust bent behind the tires. It's not bad but if I decide to go straight axle and I can fit a regular exhaust back on i will do solos again.
you don't need a straight axle if you have a Gforce 9"

Gforce FTW.
I'm thinking about changing the exhaust. I put on stainless and I'm just sick of the creaking when I get out of the car. Thinking Magnaflow this time. I do need to change out the mid pipes too for catless....especially when I get in the 2-step.

Had magnaflow mufflers they leave something to be desired. Only mufflers not a catback, didn't like them at all , actually gave them to superdave for his son's truck..
