OK everyone this is now going to be a sticky but only for exhaust sound clips. Any conversation or general posts will be removed. This way we can keep the thread on topic and easy to look through.

When posting a sound clip please do the following.
1) Year and model of your truck.
2) List an extra mods that you have done to the truck as these could affect sound.
3) List the make and series of the exhaust you have put on.

Thanks in advance for everyones help on this thread. Now enjoy the sounds. Sorry to remove previous posts but to get this started fresh with posting rules upfront it worked out that way. Please post back up all your sounds.

Current set up: Hedmen headers, custom 2 1/4" y pipe into a single magnaflow cat 2 1/2" out follwed up by a 4" x 20" tip exiting in front of the rear tire.



Notes: its loud, VERY loud but not much of a tone. some say it sounds like a 2 stroke diesel mixed with a sea plane taking off.

Set up: EFI manifolds with stock first cat/y pipe with 2 1/2" into a small case magnaflow dumped before the rear axle.



Notes: probably the best sound out of everything i tried. did not have as much of a ricey tone as it seems to have in the video, the mic on the camera wasnt to good.

Set up: EFI manifolds with stock first cat/y pipe with 2 1/2" pipe running just at the end of the bed and no muffler.

Did a mod delete my new exhaust post? Anyway here's my new setup again.

I like it now. I still get that annoying droning noise at higher rpms. I want to add extra pipe if I ever get the time. I think by simply redirecting the noise farther away from the muffler exit it will kill some of that droning noise.

Maybe 1.5' of straight 2.25 pipe. I know the turndown kills the droning noise but also makes it quieter. I'm thinking maybe because of the bend...??? I don't know.

Any suggestions on how to kill that droning noise without hurting sound quality would be much appreciated!

Did some more work to my exhaust. I'm through. I like it now.



Ditched the Flowmaster. I kept the high flow cat and ran pipe into a replacement tailpipe. Gave her *pop*.

Added a 31'' Cherry Bomb Muffler. I was afraid of catching the wrong police officer's attention. IMHO it sounds just as good if not better than the Flowmaster Super40 I had. Plus it's a straight through design. Wish I had known this before paying all that money for the FMS40.
