I know theres been alot of talk about exhausts, my wife's Armada is stock, i have the banks exhaust and she thinks it is too looooouuuuud!!(which keeps her from driving my truck; LOL) anyways since the titan and Armada are almost the same i am looking at getting her a cat back, but not sure which one to get her, I/she does not care what brand it is but i want to go with the CAI I am getting her with out being to LOUD! I would appreciate any advice.
the cai will be noticebly louder than most catbacks since it will suck up a lot of air and is so close to the cabin in front. Most catbacks should be quiet until you mash the gas but then again the cai will howl much more and cover the sounds of the exhaust.

Volant is a great exhaust! I think she'll really like it. Quiet at idle like stock (but a little louder), sounds great during acceleration, and absolutely NO DRONE at highways speeds. Best thing was it was only $400 plus shipping. Here is my review with pictures and videos of it.
You're probably gonna get more opinion than expert advise but.....info from people with different exhausts should hold useful enough.

voodoo, u don't know my wife, she is always racing me when were on the back roads going out to our cabin, she is really into getting more performance on her Armada, thks for replies, i havent' decided whick one yet but i cant find the thread with the different exhausts posted so i can hear the differences.
Wait until people start changing out the factory exhaust on their '07's and just buy a used stock system. You'll be able to get them cheap as dirt and they'll probably flow better too. Well...at least better than the '04-'06 factory Y-pipe catback setup. A high flow muffler if you must and you should be all set.
