PLEASE reconsider the axle back, and if your heart is set on it then consider getting a muffler welded on. I installed mine in November and it is SOOOOO loud. Its not aftermarket headers, catless, downpipe, straight piped coyote v8 loud BUT its honestly not too far off. I cannot drive it quietly, no matter how low in the rpm range i am, and if you install it, your neighbors will hate you. I cant even have a conversation in my car. I had a catback on my last car and it wasn't nearly as loud as this axleback.

I don't know if getting the AFE muffler exhaust (there is one) is worth it, as they don't quote any HP gains. I'm sure it looks nice, maybe it sounds a little more rumbly, but the OEM one will last a long time.

Not saying the axle-back is a good idea, given the noise. Just don't know of a good OE replacement that keeps noise down and adds performance.

I have the afe axle back and I love it. It is loud, but there is no drone, which is more important to me. On the highway it's not bad at all. It pops and gurgles a lot and sounds mean. Its quiter than my wife's explorer with magnaflow cats and cat back. I recommend it personally...

As do I and love it! Cold starts are the best. No drone on the highway either.
