Donaldson M090535 truck muffler. I ordered one but haven't installed it yet. It arrived dented and UPS just picked it up today. Here's the link from Donaldson's website showing the flow numbers:

Be advised this is a big muffler, 51" long / 9 " diameter. This is a straight through muffler with no baffle. Glen

I have the complete turbo back system from fullspectrumperformance.com and love it. The mufler is avalible by itself and is a true 5inch all the way through. The complete system I have has no drone at all at any speed.... well its only been to 85mph on the hwy so I will say no drone up to 85.

I've installed the Dynomax Race Bullet Muffler in the 4" version. I got it from Jegs.com. The 5" version is part number 289-24233, but they have the wrong picture shown. It's 5" ID inlet/outlet.
I welded mine directly behind the cat, and it's immediately followed by a turndown. I love it.

How loud is it? I thought about a turn down after the muffler, but with a Banks 4" muffler and a turn down just before the rear bumper, I get way too much drone.

ANSA has a Black Stainless Steel 5" dual or single... It essentially looks like Black Chrome... I don't know about pricing, but I believe ANSA makes Silverline

stock03, it's loud, but not as loud as when I had the turndown clamped on the back of the cat. That hurt my head. It's got a great deep low end rumble at idle, and it roars at WOT. I just added 18" between the muffley and the turndown, which moved the exhaust exit beyond the cab. That made it quieter in the cab.
I was told not to do this because of soot issues under the truck. Mine doesn't smoke, so it doesn't seem to be a problem.
I love the way it sounds though.

Mine smokes like a coal train when I drive hard. It's a good thing I have the exhaust tip turned down. I bet it would not drone as much if the exhaust pipe was in the same location (but the side of the truck and bumper would be covered with soot all the time).

I'm still thinking of getting a diff muffler. The drone is too much on the highway. But it sounds great at WOT.

How does your truck sound on the highway at 65mph and faster?

svanni 01-09-2007 07:55 PM

65mph or higher sounds great. I have to turn the radio up alittle more though.

rockittboy 01-10-2007 01:09 AM

well right now im running a 5" str8 pipe that turns down and to the side right after the cab. maybe its a sign of me getting old, but its just too much these days.

tcr, I ordered it from Ryder Fleet Products. www.ryderfleetproducts.com The muffler was $75.94 to my door. It came dented, but UPS picked it up yesterday. We'll see what happens. Any big truck shop should be able to order you one. I also ordered my 5" exhaust-no muffler from Full Spectrum Performance. www.fullspectrumperformance.us Quality was just as good as the 4" Pinnacle Performance(Jardine) exhaust that I have I my truck now. That lasted 7 years, just rusted out and broke before the muffler. The 5 inch exhaust has a 4 inch downpipe then goes 5 inch the rest of the way. For the money you can't beat it. Just a note for '94-'02 trucks the first intermediate pipe is clearanced slightly for the crossmember. At first I thought that was dented too.-Glen
