    I haven't found videos online to give good representation of exhaust sound. Best to try yourself.

    I was on the same boat a few months ago and I went with the @dirtydeeds standard 8in system. I have no complaints. It sounds great!! Quiet on idle and loud deep rumble when I step on it. A buddy of mine had the TRD and the mine seems a tad bit louder.
    Reason I went with dirtydeeds is because I wanted to be a little different. Contact Keith he's a real cool guy and he'll answer any questions you have.

    I too went with Dirty Deeds 8" system and I am very happy the sound and knowing I could gain\ keep a little more torque. If you can, try to find the system and listen to it in person. The videos of all that revving is pretty much useless. I originally had ordered a 6" wanting to get more sound, but last minute got nervous about it being too loud and changed to 8", which Kieth recommended for me originally after discussing the sound and how loud I wanted to be. Its quite when cruising, slight throttle it has a low rumble, and when on the gas it is just loud enough. Thanks Keith!

    I'm definitely going with Dirty Deeds as soon as I have the cash. Have heard nothing but amazing things about Keith from different forums.

    Seriously, as easy as it is to install these you should run each for a week or two and then decide. You'll be able to sell the one you don't want.

    One reason America is so great is because we're free to make choices. Make the best choice the first time, call Keith, you WON'T regret it.

    8 inch ba muffler is great but little to quiet for me with resonator on so I'm ordering block off plate.....I'll slap the resonator when making far trips or hauling a trailer but over all it sounds amazing
