I imagine on a truck as low as a Lightning it would be a packed operation. Would be pretty cool though... Imagine the look on your friends faces when you pull up with one exhaust note and then switch it up right in front of them.

Cutouts will make it louder. I'd stay away from them or the next thing we'll hear is that they gave you a ticket for altering an emissions part ie exhaust complete with cat and muffler, depending on your state laws. I had one on my z28 when in high school. made the car sound awesome but it was a pain finding someone to weld it on because they could get in alot of trouble for doing it.
A buddy of mine has a 99 Z28 and had is cutout welded in just behind the passenger seat and has the stock exhaust. It sounds very very nice with the cutout open. I think that if he had no cats or something like that it might be a bit loud though.

well the cats are off of my truck if im not mistaken..and that means it will be super loud..but about the radar detector, i really want one but i can really do without one because i dont think they care about exhaust because choppers come ridin LOUDLY about everyday lol..so it's no major problem right now
i know what you mean my son 17 2002 mountaineer got 2 tickets and the stop signs were 200 feet apart if that far but i tried to tell them that in 2 days 5 people may go thru there but judge said we are trying to get all to stop there because too many run them 400 bucks it was cause they thought i had money and these towns are broke paying for gas and stuff ;well i have my 76 f100 with stock 302 from 80 f150 ;themotor tranny wodrive rearend love my truck get older model an see can still cruise ,i have yet to drive a car that is more fun than my truck to drive,stay low an slow but keep those mirrows adjusted if you need to get on it a bit
well i would automatically get a ticket for the loudness lol..my truck is just too loud..but i have until april of 2009 to drive clean..that is going to be so hard..but now i'm just staying low key by trying so so hard to stay at the speed limit or even lower
I know this is an old thread. Buy, Im 20 and I'm buying a lighting tomorrow. So I had to comment. In the four years I've been driving I've had one speeding ticket so we'll see how that changed? Is the Lightning to much for a Daily Driver?
One thing I can almost guarantee, you will put your foot into the throttle. That's the whole point in buying one. Another thing is certain... put your foot into the throttle enough times and statistically sooner or later you will be nailed. Maybe you'll get lucky and get a warning like I did.
