Had the same ? Did research, talked to exhaust specialist, talked to dealer, listened to on-line sounds, ended up selecting the Gibson and Billy Boat as the 2 finalist. Gibson is a good exhaust sys but BB is better in my opinion. The chrome work on the BB exhaust is fantastic. My truck has been in some tough off road trips and the exhaust still shines like it was new and no damage. Sound is great.

My final vote was for the Billy Boat and that is what I put on my 2006 H3. I have ordered a 2008 H3 Alpha and will put a BB exhaust on it when it is available.

I got the Magnaflow dual exhaust and I'm really happy with it. Nice mellow sound, not too loud, not too quiet. I'd say it's more of a touring exhaust sound than the louder performance exhaust sound some systems have. Magnaflow has really nice chromed dual tips. After it's installed they look like factory pipes.

I guess it comes down to what flavor you want, BB, Gibson, Corsa, Magnaflow are all great exhasut systems and all work well with the H3.

I have the Magnaflow. Researched the do do out of this. The GM pipes with tips is priced rediculous and no better than others. My experince is with Borla. Probably 3 bills more than the Magnaflow. Billy Boat is sweet, but I did not like their flange terminations (where it connect the front pipe to the over axel muffler pipe). Corsa too shiny. Drive the exhaust 10k in Upper midwest road salt and say, didn't need the shine any way. I concluded, just my humble brain dead opinion affected by the wallet of reality, that the magnaflow was the best bang for the buck. Gibson was probably my 3rd choice, BB #2. I paid $470.00 to get the Magnaflow, delivered. I bet it took and hour and 10 mins. tops to rip the old factory garbage off (sawzall baby) and install the new Magnaflow, including cleanup. Easy peasy. Really a personal preference thing. I wanted Borla, but 3 bills will do my PCM and then some. J

Doc - what's your opinion of the sound of the Magnaflow? Does it drone and if so how much (relatively) at what RPM? About how much louder is it than the stock system? I've been trying research this and I'd like another owner's opinion before I pull the trigger. I'm looking for the quietest aftermarket system that produces meaningful gains and from what I've seen the Magnaflow is the one.

Thanks in advance and sorry to hijack the thread a bit.

Jeff
