I haven't had much time to look up alot of performance items for my Titan. I have been looking for the best aftermarket exhaust system for this truck and I can't come to a conclusion. I am not a fan of the flowmaster system I just beleive them to be mostly noise and not as much performance. I think their name sells more than their performance. Borola has an awesome system but an awesome price tag also! Really the only two I have found that might be reasonable candidates are the Banks Monster Exhaust and the JBA 3" Exhaust System. I really don't have much knowledge about the JBA system but online it looks great! I would like some input from people either having experience with both or with either really. Other ideas are appreciated!
I don't think there is one "Best" exhaust system. Most peoples will tell you the one they have is best.
All depends on what you're looking for, I'm very happy with my Banks and AEM combo. Do you want loud, not loud, ect.....

I like it loud so I went with the Banks. Also have a FrameBoost intake. Depending on what you get the best way to go is an air intake and cat-back exhaust.

Ive heard that JBA makes some good headers, but between the two exhaust systems id say the banks. It seems to have more popularity with titan owners for a reason.

Wheels, Tires, and a Lift. Dont bother me, im driving
No, I work for a Civil engineering firm, I just love the smooth growl of the Zoomers though so I had to represent, lol. Their are better exhausts for power out their though. I think the latest craze is the JBA setup which I will probably go to when I put on their headers.

Another vote for Magnaflow, roars like a tiger, purrs like a kitty.....what the heck am I saying???? Yeah, I'm not a huge fan of really loud mufflers, I wanted more performance without getting too loud and the Mag is perfect for that.
I am really looking for the performance aspect. It seems more of the people here are worried about how loud there exhaust is. Loud does not equate to horsepower, just headaches after prolonged exposure. (from EXPERIENCE!) I found a Banks Kit for $485.00 and it sounds like really good deal. If anyone has found something better for less please let me know!
STOCK RULES If you want quiet IMHO at least in the 07...... If you want loud, go with the banks, flowmaster or some cherry bombs . If you want performance #r's the magnaflow is the way, not to loud and a little drone. Other than that, there are a few thousand post on exhaust and everyone has an opinion.
