Catbacks for the 4.0

Looking for opinions from people that have put a Catback on their 4.0 Looks like you can get them from TRD, Borla, Gibson and Magnaflow. I have a Borla on my 3.slow and have never had any issues with it. Right now it's looking like it all depends on how much money you want to spend. My experiences with this stuff is like anything else you get what you pay for.

I've got a Magnaflow on mine and I have no complaints. I personally don't like the "fake" daul exhaust look but that's me personally. The Gibson exits out the rear like the stock exhaust so it is more likely to drag when offroading. The magna flow tucks behind the rear passenger tire so it is more offroad friendly.

I got mine for less than $400 from Brad @ performancepeddler so it was cheaper than the Borla/TRD and comparable to the Gibson, while being more brand recognizable. I only heard of Gibson about 2 years ago, while I've heard of Magnaflow for a long long time...

Thanks guys.. Bit the bullet and ordered a Borla. BTW Peformance Products has 10% off this week.. that makes them pretty comparable to other places with the discount.
