Hooker sounded better to me. I think the Magnaflow is a straight through design if I am correct, and it should flow better.

Another option is a Dynomax Ultra-Flow oval. Straight-through design flows awsome and sounds deep. I run one on my turbo van as well as my Camaro.

Hands down - the Hooker sounds better.

At first, I didnt know which car had which system, so I picked purely
on sound (then I read the caption). The Hooker has more of that
deep growl that I remember from the true muscle car era.

You didnt see the caption?

"Both Camaro's running LT's and ORY. Red Camaro with Magnaflow
muffler and maroon one with Hooker muffler. "

I think the car on the right sounded just a touch better. The video doesn't help me judge the difference in performance, loudness at cruising RPM, or material choice.
both are gonna flow pretty much exactly the same, and have a similar construction so interior resonance will be damn near close, all you really need to judge is which exhaust note you like better

Nope. By default the page only shows the abbreviated version:

"Both Camaro's running LT's and ORY. Red..."

I must have been tired, because I didn't even think to look there. Either way, it'd be better if it was evident by the video alone.
