Mainly looking for how it sounds tonally.
I did read somewhere that Dominant is raspy sounding at first, but goes away once broken in...

I dont like rasp, but quality and welds look excellent on Dominant.

Different note: I heard Tru-Bendz quality went down too... can anyone back that up? Thats why i didnt put it down as an option.

Who has what and why did you get that one?

Thanks!

Those two= I'd go w/ the Magna flow, for Doms be prepared to wait a few months to get it after you paid him wheres w/ cfm, you'll get it real quick. You running a convertor, cause of the emmission police? I'd run a orp w/ a stealth muffler. btw, your silver svt in your avatar looks cool....

You going w/ a convertor, cause emmissions requriement? Over a orp?

I live in ma where they will get you for anything I've never had an issue with the orp not even loud imo louder than stock yea but nothing outrageous. I bought the mil cheater and it's junk doesn't even work luckily I have tom as my tuner and he turned that sensor off so I don't throw a code. I would say go with orp and when you can get toms tune it's a lot of fun. Then you'll wanna keep modding go turbo and then your in for it..... Lol either way happy modding! Tis the season.

I had on orp on my last svtf. Dont want it nearly as loud, but improve performance some. Not cause of emissions. Im in Texas so its not very strict. MIL i got from CFM helped not give me a code.

Add a stealth muffler to the orp.
