muffler help

ok guys I need some advice here. Need to replace the muffler on my truck, can I replace only the muffler? If so what muffler do people recommend? I want the truck to sound good, but I can't lose any low end torque, since I tow a lot. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Molly

Molly,

Yes. You can just replace the muffler. A srtaight through type will give you the best flow. You could also just replace the muffler with a piece of pipe and listen to the music. If you do tow a lot, why not go to a 4" complete system (other than cost)? You should see a little lower EGT with a 4" system, as well as quicker turbo spool-up.

Try RPMoutlet.com they have a very cool 4"turbo dual exhaust for under $400. i put it on my Cummins and it looks great and sounds even better.
