your piping is 2.5" mandrel bent, which is exactly what you want, so all you need to do is change the muffler, you're probably going to have a hard time getting the sound you want out of the 4 or 5 cylinder engine.

C7S has hit it on the button.. both are fun to drive but dramatically different in character. We can tell you what we prefer to drive for fun, we can't tell you what you prefer to drive for fun. Drive them both, see which one makes you want to take that drive again more.

Why should I also consider these? X

The Canyon shares its running gear with the Chevrolet Colorado, which you may find more attractive -- otherwise, the two are near-twins.

The true competitor for the Canyon/Colorado is the Ford Ranger, an aging truck that still scores well in crash tests, gets decent fuel economy and comes in all sorts of flavors.

Larger trucks like the Dodge Dakota, Nissan Frontier and Toyota Tacoma are a distinct size larger, and have four-cylinder engines that aren’t quite as frugal as that in the 2008 GMC Canyon.
