The magnaflow is essentially a glass-pak muffler. Its straight through
flow, no chambers. They do get louder as the fiberglass shrinks from the
heat. I just put one on my 4.7 (with duals) and it got noticeably louder
after about 1K. It really opened up the low end on the 4.7, but on 3.9, you
may want to stick with FM since the baffles will give more resistance to the
exhaust flow. Nice thing about Magnaflow is that it carries a lifetime
warranty!
