If you can afford it, go with Banks. If I had a Duramax that would be my choice. I have a HeartThrob on my 6.5 and it fit well, but I wonder how a different muffler would sound. If you are on a budget, just order the downpipe aka head pipe and worry about the rest later. Just let it dump out under the cab.

if this is a diesel go with diamond eye..... all over ebay, dirt cheap, top notch quality... I've had it on my powerstroke for 5 years and not a speck of rust on it
If this is a gas engine, 4" is silly. Personally, while I've had some really loud vehicles in the past I've come to fee that it is selfish to force the whole world to listen to my loud exhaust and I don't do it any more.... I even had a 4" from the turbo back straight pipe set up on the powerstroke for a while but I bought a $170 high flow but quiet muffler for it.

A diesel running straight pipes sounds a hell of a lot better than these ricers running around. And a gazillion times better than having to listen to overbassed rap (makes me miss when my injection pump was loose and overfueling). The only real drawback to no muffler is the drone at highway speeds.
Also the way I feel, unless the whole world pays my tag registration, insurance, and fuel to hell with them. I am respectful with how loud my truck is. I deliver pizza sometimes with it. I go into high end subdivisions at eleven sometimes midnight. I am not trying to argue but your vehicle is your vehicle. Disregard for others is one thing, but just because the guy in the prius next to you does not like your exhaust does not mean you bow down to him. Besides your straight pipe diesel is less harmful to the environment than his prius.

yeah, I couldn't care less about the guy next to me in a prius....It's when my neighbors would call me and ask if it was me that drove by and woke them up at 11:15 when they had to get up at 4 am that got my attention.... My truck had absolutely no drone on the highway... I couldn't hear the exhaust in the cab at all unless the window was down and I passed a building or something to echo the sound back at me. I had not realized just how loud it was and how many people I was disturbing.
