Thanks, after spending a day on youtube looking up GX470 muffler sounds I am more confused than ever.
Since I am trying to avoid multiple trips to the service shop I would like to get it done(lift/tires/exhaust) all at once but definitely don't want to overshoot and wind up with a the "cherry bomb" glass packs sound or a highway drone that splits your head on long road trips. I was leaning towards the MagnaFlow 12256, I agree and prefer that sound over flowmaster however should I get the resonator removed as well or just replace the muffler with magnaflow. One review I read said that simply swapping the OEM for MagnaFlow made very little difference from stock sound.
I'm ok with removing the resonator and leaving the stock OEM; but if that doesn't give the desired effect then I will wind up spending more on labor than the actual muffler cost.
Also, am I going to run into any maintenance light issues by toying with the exhaust, be it resonator or muffler or both.
Appreciate your help the information from this board is immeasurable.
