Personally I think the magnaflow is mellow and boring.

Magnaflow is quiet, SLP Dual/Dual is quieter. Both are smooth and mellow no rasp.

I've had flowmaster on a couple of Fbodies. Have Hooker now and like it much better.

I used to have a magnaflow and it sound very refined. Never been a fan of the hooker with H/C, the thinner metal on the headers resonates more and without converters sounds way too tinny at anything except idle.
